Granite pits on both sides of Rockville
The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists ROCKVILLE #2 QUARRY, a dimension-stone operation, just 0.8 miles west of town. A dump truck or flatbed that has carried cut blocks out of that pit may still be parked on the quarry property, so tell us whether we need someone to open a gate or move equipment before we load it.
Another dimension-stone site, Charcoal #3 Quarry, appears in Mine Safety and Health Administration listings 8.6 miles to the north-east. Stone haulers often split their week between two pits like these. Send us photos of the deck, the cab and the VIN plate, and tell us which site the truck sits at right now so the pickup goes to the right yard.
If your truck belongs to a farm or a stone business and was never under a for-hire authority, the sale works the same way; bring the title and the registration card.
Of those 27 carriers, nine list general freight, six list machinery and large objects, three list driveaway and towaway work, and three list farm supplies, according to the same FMCSA census. A lowboy tractor that has moved quarry loaders fits right alongside a straight truck that delivered feed, and we collect either one from wherever it is kept.
Most Rockville operators stay inside Minnesota: FMCSA records 20 intrastate carriers against seven that cross state lines. Interstate units usually carry a USDOT number on the door and may have IFTA decals; tell us whether the authority is still active so we know what to note on the paperwork.
Have the model year, engine make and the VIN ready when you contact us; those three answer most of our first questions.
Older and newer units are both on our list, and service records or inspection reports you kept make the description complete without any extra trip to a shop.
Plants and builders around town
Box trucks and tractors attached to a plant often stay parked in the shipping yard; give us the gate hours and a contact on site so the collection fits around the dock schedule.
Construction accounts for 137 of those local jobs, about one in five, by the same LEHD count, and County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau records 44 construction establishments. Dump trucks, flatbeds and service bodies from contractors can be picked up at a job site or an equipment lot; tell us which one.
Milk routes and corn ground near Rockville
Around Rockville, the 2022 Census of Agriculture from USDA counts 2,695 farms across Stearns County, and milk leads the list, followed by corn and cattle. Grain trucks, livestock haulers and feed trucks from these farms are often kept in a machine shed or at the edge of a field, which is fine for collection as long as we know the farm address and the driveway is passable.
Farm trucks in Minnesota are titled the same way as any other vehicle, so the name on the title should match the person or farm operation selling. If the title was put in a partnership or a family member’s name, sort that out before the sale and tell us who will sign.
Titles in Minnesota are issued by the Minnesota Department of Public Safety, Driver and Vehicle Services (DVS), which works through deputy registrar offices. The nearest one to Rockville is the Waite Park deputy registrar office at 3301 County Rd 138, Waite Park, 56387, about 6.6 miles away, according to the Minnesota Department of Public Safety, Driver and Vehicle Services (DVS).
If the title has gone missing, start the duplicate there before you contact us, and bring your driver’s license and the VIN. Tell us when you applied, since a title already on order lets us plan the rest of the sale around its arrival.
Rail yard and armory to the north-east
A tractor that has shuttled loads to and from that yard may be parked closer to St. Cloud than to home; give us the exact address of the lot.
Just past the yard, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics lists NG St Cloud NG Armory at 9.7 miles north-east and NG St Cloud AASF at 13.7 miles east. Trucks are not collected from inside a military installation, so if yours is stored near one, move it to a public lot or a private driveway first.
