Omaha's trucks mostly belong to the companies whose goods they carry. Seven in ten of the carriers with an Omaha address are private fleets, and the largest of them is a national fleet. That is why so many Omaha drivers are beyond a hundred miles on any given day. The intermodal ramp at Bellevue and the sand pits at Waterloo cover the local end.
So the Omaha semi truck is a sleeper in the big fleet. Behind it come a machinery hauler, a garbage truck, a flatbed carrying lumber or steel and a grain truck off the county's corn ground at harvest. A sand hauler comes out of Waterloo, and a day cab drays boxes off the Bellevue ramp.
Lost title in Omaha
A duplicate Nebraska title is applied for at any county treasurer's office, and Douglas County's is at 1819 Farnam downtown, where the title transfer goes in as well.
A fleet sleeper out of Omaha has usually been on a maintenance schedule and shows it in the records. A garbage truck shows its life in the body and the packer, a flatbed in the deck and the winches. Send what records you have with the photos, and tell us the work it did around Omaha.
Weight limits in Omaha
Omaha's own list is short, three bridges with a load posting and four under fourteen feet, the lowest on the I-480 exit at 20th Street. A seven-axle rig that ran the table and a tandem grain truck are two trucks and one process with us. The Nebraska page carries the state's figures and the federal table, so this page keeps to what Omaha itself adds.
Tell us where the truck is in Omaha, in South Omaha by the yards, out by Waterloo or down in Bellevue, and send photos and the title.
