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

Selling a truck in Cedarhurst? Tell us about it and we'll take it from there.

Two petroleum terminals just west of the village

The Energy Information Administration lists the Lawrence Blending Terminal 0.6 miles west of Cedarhurst and the Inwood petroleum product terminal 1 mile west. If your tanker or straight truck loads at either gate, tell us which one, and send the tank’s latest inspection certificate along with photos of the cab and chassis.

With both terminals so close, a fuel truck based in Cedarhurst may well be parked on a yard in Inwood or Lawrence rather than in the village itself. Give us the yard address and the name of whoever holds the keys, and the collection gets arranged with that yard directly.

General freight and refuse lead the local carriers

FMCSA’s carrier census shows 62 active carriers based in Cedarhurst; 21 of them list general freight as a cargo and 15 list garbage, refuse and trash. Packer bodies, roll-off trucks and box trucks are what that mix puts on the road here, so tell us the body type and the make of the chassis underneath it when you first get in touch.

Five Cedarhurst carriers carry passengers and three haul beverages, according to that same federal census. A beverage route truck or a small bus registered in the village is a vehicle we will look at; have the registration in the owner’s name ready, plus the VIN plate photographed clearly.

In-state hauling and own-goods fleets

Of the 62 carriers, FMCSA counts 57 as intrastate and only 5 as interstate, and 43 run as private fleets moving their own goods. A business that owns its truck rather than hiring it out should have the title in the company’s name; bring a letter on company letterhead naming who may sign for it.

FMCSA’s carrier census reports a median of 12,250 miles a year per truck across the 14 local carriers that filed mileage. Read the odometer and photograph the dash so the figure you send matches what the person collecting the truck will see.

Per FMCSA’s carrier census, one Cedarhurst operator runs 21 power units with 21 drivers, another runs 8, and a third runs 4. An operator letting go of two or three of those Cedarhurst units can put every VIN and plate number into a single email.

Replacing a lost New York title

For a Cedarhurst owner, Queens South TVB sits 3.3 miles off at 168-35 Rockaway Blvd in Jamaica, listed by the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles. If the title is missing, start the replacement with the Department of Motor Vehicles before you list the truck with us, and keep the receipt.

Keep the bill of sale, any lien release from your lender and the current registration together in one folder. If a bank once financed the truck, the lien release from them is what lets the title change hands cleanly in New York.

Queens rail yards, Brooklyn containers

The North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, places Jamaica Yard 6.6 miles north-west of Cedarhurst and a second Jamaica yard 6.9 miles out. Drivers who shuttle freight to those Queens yards and back can leave the tractor where it last parked; send us the location.

Further west, the Red Hook Container Terminal intermodal ramp sits 15.2 miles away according to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, which also lists two liquid bulk terminals in that north-west direction at 12.3 miles: Bayside Fuel Oil Depot Corporation and The Energy Conservation Group. If your day cab pulls containers out of Red Hook, include photos of the fifth wheel and the trailer connections.

Builders, wholesalers and Nassau growers

Workplaces in Cedarhurst held 3,854 jobs in 2023 under the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts, including 132 in construction, 91 in wholesale trade and 64 in transportation and warehousing. County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau records 37 construction establishments, so dump trucks and stake-body trucks belong on the list of what local owners may have to sell.

USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 29 farms across Nassau County, with equine operations and cut flowers among the top categories. A horse-hauling truck or a flower grower’s delivery van counts as a commercial vehicle too; tell us what it carried and send photos of the cargo area.
