Sell your semi truck for cash in Westwego the easy and convenient way

New Orleans I, a liquid bulk terminal the Bureau of Transportation Statistics places 0.4 miles north-east of Westwego, is close enough that a tanker tractor based here may never leave the west bank on a working day. If yours has pulled liquid loads to that dock, send the VIN, the title and a few photos of the tractor and the fifth wheel, and mention whether the tank trailer goes with it.

A second liquid bulk site, Kinder Morgan, lies 1.3 miles north in the Bureau of Transportation Statistics listing. Owners who parked a tractor inside a terminal fence should tell us who controls the gate, so the collection is arranged with the site and not left to a phone call on the day.

Across the river and 1.5 miles east, the Port of New Orleans - Nashville Avenue Wharf is listed by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics as a roll-on/roll-off terminal. A day cab that has worked port gates should come with its registration and any gate or inspection paperwork you kept, because those papers tell us where the truck has spent its time.

The North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration with the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, shows the KINDER-MORGAN rail yard a mile north of town and the COTTON WAREHOUSE yard 2 miles east. If your tractor drays between those yards and the terminals, give us the street address where it is parked and the hours someone can let us in.

Container work starts 1.6 miles north-west, where the Bureau of Transportation Statistics lists the New Orleans, LA rail intermodal ramp. If you pulled boxes off that ramp with a sleeper or a day cab, have the title in your name ready and tell us whether a chassis is part of the sale or stays behind with the ramp.

Two sand and gravel operations show up in Mine Safety and Health Administration records close by: Bella Rose, 0.7 miles east, and Beverly Sandpit #3, 1.7 miles east. Tandem dump trucks and end-dump tractors that load at pits like these are trucks we buy, and a pit yard is a fine place for us to pick one up.

Before we come out to a pit, photograph the bed, the hoist and the cab, and note the axle setup on the registration. If the truck sits on the operator’s ground rather than yours, give us a contact at the pit who can open the gate.

FMCSA’s carrier census counts 64 active carriers based in Westwego, 48 of them hauling general freight, 12 hauling machinery and large objects, 11 hauling metal sheets, coils and rolls, and 9 hauling logs, poles, beams and lumber. Flatbeds and step-decks with coil racks or chains are as welcome here as van tractors, so list the trailer and the securement gear if they come with the truck.

Of those carriers, 30 run interstate and 34 stay intrastate, and 19 are private fleets moving their own goods, the federal carrier census shows. A private fleet unit is often titled to the business rather than a person, so the officer who signs for the company should be ready to sign the title over.

In the same census, Westwego carriers list 78 drivers working within 100 miles and 54 going beyond it, and the median truck among 7 reporting carriers logs 19,350 miles a year. FMCSA records 7 new Westwego carriers in 2025 and 6 in 2024, and its three biggest fleets on file run 25, 20 and 10 power units. A fleet owner selling several trucks at once can send one list of VINs and plates and we will work through it together.

Of the 1,805 jobs the Census Bureau’s LEHD counts placed in Westwego in 2023, transportation and warehousing held 316, a 17.5 percent share. Manufacturing holds another 310 jobs in the LEHD figures, a 17.2 percent share; if your box truck or tractor ships for a plant, send the title and the registration with photos of the cab and the cargo body.

Wholesale trade adds 133 jobs, 7.4 percent of the total, and construction 65, or 3.6 percent, by the same LEHD figures. A straight truck from a distributor or a flatbed from a contractor gets the same treatment as a tractor: send the title, the registration and photos of each side, and tell us where it is parked.

The National Bridge Inventory lists 13 bridges in and around Westwego, 4 of them load-posted and 1 with under 14 feet of clearance. The lowest in the National Bridge Inventory is the Lapalco Blvd crossing of Segnette Bayou, at 8ft 1in. Parked beyond that structure? Send us directions that reach the truck from Lapalco Blvd.

Out in the parish, USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture records 20 farms in Jefferson Parish, with cattle the top line of production. A cattle hauler or a farm truck kept on one of those properties can be collected right there; give us directions to the barn or pasture gate and the name on the title.

• My tanker tractor sits inside a west bank terminal fence. Will you pick it up from inside the fence?New Orleans I sits 0.4 miles north-east of Westwego and Kinder Morgan 1.3 miles north, both liquid bulk terminals on the Bureau of Transportation Statistics list, and we collect from terminal lots like those. Give us the site contact who controls the gate and the truck stays put until we arrive.
• My dump truck stays at a sandpit east of Westwego. Does it need hauling off the pit before you come?Bella Rose is 0.7 miles east and Beverly Sandpit #3 is 1.7 miles east in Mine Safety and Health Administration records, and a pit yard is a workable place for pickup. Send photos of the bed and hoist, plus a gate contact at the pit.
• Our trucks are titled to the company. Does a private fleet officer sign them over, or the driver?Private fleets make up 19 of Westwego’s 64 active carriers in FMCSA’s carrier census, and for those trucks the title is usually in the company’s name. Whoever is authorised to sign for the business signs the title over, and we handle the rest of the paperwork with them.
• Will the low Segnette Bayou crossing matter for reaching my truck?Lapalco Blvd over Segnette Bayou clears 8ft 1in in the National Bridge Inventory, the lowest of 13 bridges listed around Westwego. Tell us if your truck sits beyond it so we plan the way in.
