Tank trucks on the Oyster Bay shoreline
Two fuel sites sit 6.3 miles west of the village: a liquid bulk terminal called Global, listed by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, and the OYSTER BAY petroleum product terminal in the Energy Information Administration’s records. If your tanker or fuel tractor loaded at either one, say which when you first get in touch, and send the VIN with a photo of the tank’s plate.
Farther along the same shore, at 13.3 miles west, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics places the Global Companies liquid bulk terminal, and the Energy Information Administration lists GLENNWOOD LANDING as a petroleum product terminal at that distance. A tractor that runs between those racks and north-shore customers is often parked at a yard on the Nassau side between loads; give us that yard’s address and we collect it there.
Sand south, gravel east
Sand from the south pit, gravel from Coram, and the dump bodies between
South of Huntington Bay by 9.7 miles, the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists Broad Hollow Estates Inc, a sand and gravel operation. Dump trucks and tri-axles hauling from a pit like that are often kept on the site itself, so tell us whether the gate is open for a pickup and who holds the key.
Coram Materials Corp, another sand and gravel operation in Mine Safety and Health Administration records, lies 22.9 miles east toward the middle of the island. Owners of a dump body or a roll-off chassis working that pit should have the registration in hand and a set of photos showing the bed, the hoist and the cab.
North-shore harbor, Queens railhead
Box trucks meeting Port Jefferson boats and Jamaica Yard trains
Port Jefferson, NY, which the Bureau of Transportation Statistics lists as a port, is 17.2 miles east along the north shore. A box truck or tractor that has met boats there can be picked up from a lot near the harbor just as easily as from your driveway in the village.
To the south-west, 24.8 miles out, JAMAICA YARD appears on the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. If your truck drays freight to that yard and lives in Queens rather than Huntington Bay, give us the Queens address; we come to where the truck is kept.
A replacement certificate from the HUNTINGTON office on Jericho Turnpike
The New York State Department of Motor Vehicles runs its HUNTINGTON office at 1815 E JERICHO TPKE, HUNTINGTON, which the agency’s own listing puts 6.1 miles from the village. That office is where a missing title for a Huntington Bay truck gets replaced, so look for the certificate before anything else.
Owners who cannot find the paper can apply for a replacement through the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles, at one of its DMV offices or through its title page online. Bring the registration and your ID, and keep the receipt; the sale can be lined up while the new certificate is in the mail.
Potted plants and horse barns
Trucks that serve the island’s growers
Potted flowering plants top the list of products from 578 farms in Suffolk County, according to USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, with equine and hogs next. Straight trucks and reefer units that carry nursery stock out of the county are part of what we take.
Horse barns account for the second item on that USDA list, and a stake-bed or flatbed hauling hay and bedding to them is welcome too. Send the plate number and a few photos taken in daylight from both sides, and tell us whether it sits at a barn or at home.
Paused enforcement and what it asks of a village diesel owner
New York’s Department of Environmental Conservation lists the Advanced Clean Trucks (ACT) Regulation, and for now enforcement of it is paused. A Huntington Bay owner selling a diesel tractor does not need any extra filing under it to sell to us.
The Heavy-Duty Low NOx Omnibus (HD Omnibus) Regulation is on the state’s books as well, and its enforcement is on hold at the moment too. Keep the engine’s label legible in your photos, since it records the engine family and model year for anyone reading the paperwork later.
