Wilson Pit to Brockport
Wilson Pit, a sand and gravel operation, lies 2.8 miles south-west of Albion on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s register, and Eagle Harbor Sand & Gravel Inc is 5.6 miles out on that same heading. A tri-axle that loads at either one tends to be parked near town between jobs, so send us the yard’s address and the name of whoever holds the keys.
Shelby Crushed Stone, 12.6 miles west, and the Brockport Plant, 15.1 miles east, appear as crushed-stone quarries in the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s listings. If your dump truck ran stone out of Shelby or Brockport, photograph the body, the hoist and the lift axle along with the cab, and name the quarry it served.
A gravel truck can be collected right where it is kept, whether that is a pit yard, a farm lane or a pole barn outside Albion. Tell us whether a tow vehicle can reach it and whether a gate needs opening, and the pickup gets planned around those answers.
Grain, feed and dairy hauling in Orleans County
Orleans County holds 444 farms according to USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, and corn, soybeans and milk lead its output. Grain trucks, feed haulers and bulk milk tankers working those farms are on our list, whether the farm owns the truck or a hauler runs it for them.
Around Albion, FMCSA’s carrier census shows 33 carriers hauling farm supplies and 32 carrying grain, feed or hay. A truck registered under a farm name needs its title and current registration in the same name as the person selling it, so check both before you call.
Harvest-only grain trucks spend much of the year parked in a barnyard or at the edge of a field. Give us the road name and say whether the ground will hold a tow vehicle in the month you want the truck gone.
Freight and flatbeds
FMCSA’s carrier census records 170 active carriers around Albion, and 74 of them list general freight. The same census shows 34 moving machinery and large objects, so flatbeds, step decks and the tractors pulling them are as much a part of the local mix as box trucks and dump bodies.
Per FMCSA’s census, 154 of those Albion carriers operate intrastate and 15 cross state lines, while 122 are private fleets hauling their own goods. A truck that worked for your own business needs only its title and registration to sell; operating authority paperwork does not come into it.
FMCSA’s carrier census lists 349 drivers here working within 100 miles and 110 driving beyond that radius. Wherever your truck finished its last run, tell us the town it now sits in and we will go to it.
What Albion’s fleets put on the road
An owner selling several units at once should send a list showing each VIN, its odometer reading and the lot where it is parked.
Forty-nine trucks pulled over for roadside inspection between August 2024 and August 2026 had a median model year of 2015, and FMCSA roadside inspection records put 53 percent of them at ten or more years old. A sharp photo of your VIN plate and dashboard odometer is the first thing to send, whatever year the truck is.
The median for Albion’s 37 carriers reporting mileage to FMCSA’s carrier census is 10,000 miles a truck each year. Note your truck’s current reading when you get in touch, and tell us how many owners it has had.
Plants, contractors and new operators around Albion
Of Albion’s 2,178 jobs in 2023, the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts place 170 in manufacturing and 54 in transportation and warehousing. Straight trucks and box trucks that served the plants and shops in town are trucks we purchase.
A contractor with a dump truck, roll-off or crew-cab chassis can sell it to us straight from the job yard, with the title in hand.
Twelve carriers registered around Albion in 2025 and 7 in 2024, by FMCSA’s carrier census. If you bought a truck to start one of those outfits and are now selling it, keep the bill of sale and any lien release with the title.
Titles and plates
Albion title paperwork and New York’s truck rules
Lost titles in Albion are replaced at the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles office at 14016 Route 31W, which the agency places 1.4 miles from town. Apply for the duplicate in the name of whoever is selling the truck, before the pickup date.
On its heavy-duty vehicle pages, the state’s Department of Environmental Conservation shows both the Advanced Clean Trucks rule and the Heavy-Duty Low NOx Omnibus rule with enforcement paused. Neither of those paused rules blocks an Orleans County owner from selling us a diesel already titled to them.
Before collection, put the title, registration, any lien release and the service records you kept in one folder. Once the sale is agreed, take the plates off and hand them back at the Albion DMV office.
