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

FMCSA’s carrier census counts 67 active carriers based in Lewiston, and 65 of them run intrastate only, with just 2 authorised for interstate work. If your truck has spent its working life on New York roads, that is the normal pattern here, and we collect it from wherever it is parked in town or on a job site.

Of those 67, the federal carrier census marks 48 as private fleets: businesses hauling their own goods rather than freight for hire. A contractor or farm with one or two trucks of its own fits that line. Have the registration in the business name ready, and tell us who signs for the company when the title changes hands.

Lewiston gained 5 newly registered carriers in 2024 and another 5 in 2025, FMCSA’s records show. A carrier that started recently and is now trimming equipment can send us the VIN, the title and a set of photos of the cab, frame and trailer connections to begin.

General freight is the cargo 29 Lewiston carriers list with FMCSA, and logs, poles, beams and lumber come next at 14. A log truck or flatbed that has carried timber is equipment we buy; photograph the bunks, standards or deck along with the tractor so we see the whole rig.

Nine local carriers tell the federal census they move motor vehicles, and 7 list driveaway or towaway work. Car carriers and rollback decks are typical of that work. Note the bed length, the winch and whether the deck tilts or slides, and send a photo of the data plate.

Lewiston’s three biggest operations, by FMCSA’s registration figures, run 18 power units with 18 drivers, 6 units with 1 driver, and 5 units with 4 drivers. Below that the town is made of very small outfits. Selling two or three units off one Lewiston lot? Put every VIN in your first message and we plan one trip for the lot.

Lewiston carriers report 114 drivers working within a hundred-mile radius against 21 who go beyond it, on FMCSA’s carrier census. Tell us whether yours is kept at a shop, a farm or a driveway in town, and we will meet it there.

The median truck among 12 carriers reporting mileage to FMCSA logs 8,500 miles a year. Write down the odometer reading when you contact us, alongside the engine hours if the truck carries a PTO or runs equipment while parked.

Census Bureau LEHD job counts for 2023 put 1,243 jobs in Lewiston, with 57 of them, a 4.6 percent share, in transportation and warehousing. If the truck belongs to a business outside trucking, have whoever holds the title on hand to sign.

The NIAGARA rail yard lies 4.1 miles south of Lewiston and the FOOTE yard 4.8 miles south-east, both listed in the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. A tractor that shuttles to those yards is close enough that we can pick it up where it last dropped a load.

To the north-east, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics places the NG Youngstown training site 5.7 miles out, and a Niagara Falls military installation 6.1 miles south-east. If your truck is kept on or near a gated site, tell us in advance who can open the gate and what identification the driver will need.

Further along the same south-east line, Transflo CSXT, a liquid bulk terminal, sits 22.4 miles away on the Bureau of Transportation Statistics list. Tank trailers and the tractors that pull them from there are part of what we take; send a photo of the trailer’s specification plate with the rest.

Heading south-east from Lewiston toward the Tonawanda riverfront, the Energy Information Administration lists the TONAWANDA petroleum product terminal 13.2 miles out and TONAWANDA ASPHALT half a mile beyond it at 13.7. Fuel haulers and asphalt tankers working that run can be collected at the terminal side or at home; tell us which.

East of town, the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists Amrize Lockport Quarry, a crushed-stone operation 16.4 miles away. Dump trucks and tri-axles hauling aggregate from a quarry like this one are on our list. Let us know the body length and whether the tailgate is high-lift or standard.

For Lewiston’s area, 21 construction establishments are recorded in the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns. A contractor selling a dump truck, a stake body or a service truck should have the title, the current registration and any service invoices on hand when we arrive.

Around Lewiston and across Niagara County, USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 628 farms, with milk, corn and soybeans as the leading products. Grain trucks, feed trucks and milk tankers from those farms often sit in a barn lot between seasons; give us directions to the lot and say whether the lane is open in winter.

On a Niagara dairy or grain operation, the truck title may carry a parent’s name or the farm partnership’s rather than yours. Check whose name is on the title before we schedule, and if it belongs to an estate or a partner, have the paperwork that lets you sign for it.

A missing title is replaced through the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles, and its NIAGARA FALLS office at 1001 11TH ST, NIAGARA FALLS is 5 miles from Lewiston. Apply there or through the DMV’s title replacement process before the sale, and keep the receipt to show us the application is in.

New York’s Advanced Clean Trucks regulation and its Heavy-Duty Low NOx Omnibus regulation both show enforcement as paused on the state environmental department’s published notices. Neither changes what you need for a sale here: the title, the registration and photos of the truck.

• Will you take the lumber flatbed I run out of Lewiston?Logs, poles, beams and lumber are listed by 14 Lewiston carriers with FMCSA, and we buy the trucks that haul them. Send photos of the deck, bunks or standards along with the cab.
• Would you load my asphalt tanker from beside the Tonawanda terminal rather than from my Lewiston address?TONAWANDA and TONAWANDA ASPHALT are 13.2 and 13.7 miles south-east of Lewiston in Energy Information Administration listings, and we pick up at the terminal or at your address. Tell us where the truck stands and who can give access.
• My grain truck stays in a barn lot outside Lewiston between harvests, so would you collect it off that lot?Niagara County has 628 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, and seasonal trucks parked on them are common. Give us directions to the lot and the name on the title.
