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

Of the 18 active Highland Falls carriers in FMCSA’s carrier census, a dozen haul only their owners’ own goods as private fleets. If your box truck or pickup-and-trailer rig belongs to a contractor or a shop in the village, it counts the same as a tractor to us; send the VIN, the plate and a few photos and we start from there.

Sixteen of those 18 carriers run intrastate only and just 2 cross state lines, according to the same federal census. A truck that has stayed inside New York usually carries a New York registration and title, so keep both papers with it and have the inspection sticker date handy when you reach us.

In FMCSA’s carrier census, the three biggest operations here field 3, 2 and 2 power units. When a two-truck outfit sells one unit, tell us which one and where it is parked, so the collection does not disturb the truck still working.

General freight is the most common cargo listed, with 7 Highland Falls carriers declaring it in FMCSA’s carrier census. Straight trucks, liftgate vans and day cabs come out of that kind of work; if yours has a liftgate or reefer unit, mention it and photograph the plate on it.

Three local carriers list logs, poles, beams and lumber, while 2 list garbage and refuse and 2 list liquids and gases, the federal census shows. For a log truck or roll-off, photograph the body and the hoist or loader along with the cab, and say whether the body is coming with the chassis or staying behind.

Among the drivers on those carriers’ rolls, FMCSA counts 17 working within 100 miles of base and 11 going beyond it. Wherever your Highland Falls truck spends the night, whether a contractor’s lot below the academy or a driveway in the village, give us that address and the name of whoever holds the keys.

The Energy Information Administration lists the CORTLAND MANOR petroleum product terminal 4.8 miles south and CARGO NEWBURGH 8 miles north. Fuel delivery trucks and tankers that load at sites like these are on our list; have the tank’s inspection records and any hazmat placarding paperwork together before we talk.

Further north, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics places the Global liquid bulk terminal 7.9 miles away and Warex Terminals Corporation at 8.3 miles. If your tractor pulled tank trailers in and out of those gates, tell us whether the trailer is part of the sale and which yard each piece sits in.

Two crushed-stone quarries appear within 9 miles in Mine Safety and Health Administration listings: SPEYSIDE HOLDINGS LLC 7 miles west and CALLAHAN & NANNINI SHALE INC at 8.9 miles. Dump trucks and tri-axles that haul aggregate out of pits like these are the kind of equipment we collect, wherever on the site they are parked.

If your dump truck still sits at a quarry, let us know who controls access, since the Mine Safety and Health Administration registers these as working mines with their own gate rules. Photos of the bed, the tailgate and the hoist, plus the title, are what we ask for first.

Of the 893 jobs the Census Bureau’s LEHD counts placed in Highland Falls in 2023, transportation and warehousing held 72, an 8.1 percent slice. A driver in one of those jobs who also owns a truck personally can sell it to us directly; the title just needs to be in the seller’s name, or come with the paperwork showing who can sign.

Orange County had 613 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, with milk, equine and potted flowering plants leading the list. Milk haulers, horse transporters and nursery delivery trucks from those farms are welcome; a farm-plated truck should come with its registration so we can see how it was plated.

The New York State Department of Motor Vehicles office named PEEKSKILL, at 1045 PARK ST, PEEKSKILL, is 5.7 miles from Highland Falls by that agency’s own listing. If the title for your truck has gone missing, that office handles a replacement; start the request before we schedule collection so the paper is in hand when we arrive.

None of the 5 Highland Falls bridges in the National Bridge Inventory carries a load posting, and none sits under 14 feet. A tall box truck or loaded dump can leave town over any of them, so tell us only whether the truck sits on a private lot, a street or behind a locked gate.

• Will you pick up a truck sitting close to the West Point reservation gates?The Bureau of Transportation Statistics places the West Point Military Reservation 2.9 miles west of Highland Falls, and we come to wherever the truck sits. If it is on a restricted area, tell us who can escort us in or move it to a gate we can reach.
• Which DMV office serves a Highland Falls owner whose title is lost?Across the Hudson, 5.7 miles from Highland Falls, the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles lists its PEEKSKILL office at 1045 PARK ST, PEEKSKILL. Ask there for a duplicate title and send us a copy once you have it.
• Can a Highland Falls owner with two trucks sell only one of them?Twelve of the 18 carriers in FMCSA’s carrier census for Highland Falls are private fleets, and most are small. Selling one unit is fine; send its VIN, title and photos and keep the other working.
• Do you collect dump trucks from the quarries west of town?Mine Safety and Health Administration listings show crushed-stone quarries 7 and 8.9 miles west of Highland Falls. Tell us which site, who holds the gate, and where on the property the truck is parked.
