Bulk liquids, westbound
Tankers that run to the Shell terminal
Shell’s liquid bulk terminal, 18.3 miles west of Presquille on the Bureau of Transportation Statistics list, is the nearest place in that direction where tank work begins and ends. A tractor that has hauled to and from it is a truck we buy, whether it is a day cab or a sleeper.
Let us know whether your tractor still has a tank trailer coupled or is parked bobtail in a yard near home. If the trailer belongs to someone else, say so up front, and we will plan around collecting the tractor by itself from wherever it stands in Presquille.
Ground mineral, Larose side
Haul trucks from the Larose grinding plant
East of town by 16.3 miles, the Larose Grinding Plant is recorded by the Mine Safety and Health Administration as a mineral processing plant. Dump trucks, end dumps and the tractors that pull bottom-dump trailers out of a plant like that are all part of what we take on.
If yours has been hauling ground material out of Larose, a handful of clear photos of the body, the hoist and the cab, plus the VIN plate, gives us the outline before we call. Tell us if the truck sits at the plant gate or back at a Presquille driveway, since that is where our driver will go.
Dock freight on the Terrebonne Parish Port road
Out to the south-west, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics places Terrebonne Parish Port, LA at 19.4 miles from Presquille. Flatbeds, chassis pullers and tractors that move freight off its docks fit what we purchase.
Port trucks often stay parked near the waterfront between jobs. Give us the street or lot where yours is, and mention gates, padlocks or a yard contact who can let our driver in, so the pickup is arranged around the dock rather than around a trip into town.
Grand Caillou Road
A duplicate from Grand Caillou Road, under four miles off
Titles in this part of the state come from the Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles, and its public office list includes Direct Auto Insurance Agency at 933 Grand Caillou Road, Houma, 70363, an OMV office 3.9 miles from Presquille. Anyone whose title has gone missing can apply for a duplicate there before we collect.
Bring the registration and a photo ID when you go to Grand Caillou Road. Once the replacement is in hand, keep it with the keys and any service records; our driver asks for all three when loading the truck.
Goats and small farms
Goat farms and the stake beds that serve them
Around Presquille and the rest of Terrebonne Parish, USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counted 137 farms, with goats listed as the top livestock. Stake beds, flatbeds and single-axle trucks that carry feed, hay or animals on those places are welcome here as well.
A farm truck that only leaves the property a few times a season can stay right where it is. Send its VIN, a photo of the odometer and the address of the field or barn, and we will route our driver down the farm road to it.
