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

Tank loading just south-west of town

The Energy Information Administration lists a petroleum product terminal at Glennwood Landing, 1.9 miles south-west of Glen Head, and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics places a liquid bulk terminal 1.8 miles out in the same direction. A tank truck or tractor that loads at that waterfront is probably parked close to home, so tell us the street and who can let us onto the lot.

Another pair sits 5.2 miles east at Oyster Bay, a petroleum product terminal on Energy Information Administration records and a liquid bulk terminal per the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. If your truck has run fuel between these two harbors, keep any terminal loading records and the registration together; together they record what the unit has carried.

Freight, refuse and moving vans on the carrier rolls

Glen Head has 75 active carriers in FMCSA’s carrier census, and 26 of them list general freight as their cargo. Box trucks and straight trucks doing that kind of work are the units we expect to hear about most often, so photos of the body, the cab and the plate are a good start.

Refuse hauling shows up for 8 carriers in the same FMCSA census, with household goods and machinery or large objects at 6 each. A roll-off, a moving van or a lowboy tractor each needs its body or trailer described separately from the chassis, so send a photo of each and note whether the trailer is part of the sale.

According to FMCSA’s carrier census, 71 of the town’s carriers operate intrastate, only 3 run interstate, and 60 are private fleets hauling their own goods. For an owner-operator or a contractor with one truck, that usually means the truck sits at a shop or a driveway in Nassau County when we come for it.

Low annual mileage and drivers who stay near home

Drivers working within 100 miles number 130 in FMCSA’s census for Glen Head, against 16 who go beyond that radius. Have the odometer reading and the VIN ready when you call; with routes this short, those two figures tell us most of what we need to plan the collection.

Among the 14 carriers here that reported annual mileage to FMCSA, the median was 10,000 miles per truck. Service invoices from a local shop fill in the rest of the record, so gather whatever you kept.

The biggest fleets on FMCSA’s carrier census for Glen Head run 10, 8 and 6 power units. If you are retiring several trucks from a fleet that size at once, list each VIN and where each one is parked, and we can arrange them as one job.

A duplicate title from the Garden City counter

The New York State Department of Motor Vehicles office at 400 Oak St in Garden City is 8.2 miles from Glen Head, by that agency’s own listing. That is where to go for a replacement title if the original is lost, and the title in your name is the one document the sale cannot go ahead without.

Bring the registration along with the title when we meet. If a lender is still shown on the title, a lien release from them should be in hand before collection day, and the Garden City office can tell you how to record it.

Aggregate pits, Jamaica Yard and builders’ trucks

The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists a sand and gravel operation 11.7 miles south-east of town. Dump trucks that haul aggregate from a pit like that are trucks we buy; tell us the body length and whether a tarp system is fitted.

Construction accounts for 131 of the 1,153 jobs counted in Glen Head in 2023 by the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts, an 11.4 percent share. Contractors who keep a dump truck, a flatbed or a service body for that work can send photos of the equipment mounted on it along with the truck itself.

Jamaica Yard, 13.9 miles south-west, is a rail yard on the North American Rail Network maintained by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. A day cab that shuttles freight to the Jamaica rail yards can be collected where it parks between runs, here or there.

Paused emissions rules and this year’s new operators

New York’s state environmental notices list enforcement of the Advanced Clean Trucks Regulation and the Heavy-Duty Low NOx Omnibus Regulation as paused. Tell us the engine model year from the data plate so the emissions details on our side match the truck.

Six Glen Head carriers first registered in 2025 and two more in 2024, going by FMCSA’s carrier census, and a newer operator like that has a recent purchase on file. Keep that bill of sale and the title transfer to hand; both show the chain of ownership.

The questions we get asked in Glen Head

  • My tank truck sits beside the Glennwood Landing fuel terminal, so does collection happen right at that gate?Glennwood Landing is 1.9 miles south-west of Glen Head on the Energy Information Administration’s list, and we collect at the truck’s location. Send the terminal gate address with a phone number for the person who opens it.
  • I misplaced the title to a tractor kept in Glen Head, so where on Nassau County roads do I apply for a duplicate?The Garden City office of the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles, at 400 Oak St, is 8.2 miles away by that agency’s listing. Apply there for a duplicate before the sale, since the title has to be in your name.
  • I run a small private fleet for my own business. Do you buy from operators like me?Private fleets make up 60 of Glen Head’s 75 active carriers in FMCSA’s carrier census, and owners in that group are among the sellers we work with. Send the VIN, odometer reading and photos for each truck.
