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

Shelby Crushed Stone, a crushed-stone quarry the Mine Safety and Health Administration places 3 miles south-west of Medina, is the closest working pit to the village. A tri-axle or tandem dump that has hauled aggregate out of Shelby may still be parked at the quarry yard; give us the gate contact and we collect it from there.

Heading east, MSHA records list Eagle Harbor Sand & Gravel at 7.3 miles and Wilson Pit at 9 miles out, both sand and gravel operations. If your dump truck splits its loads between those two, photograph the body, the hoist and the tailgate, and send the VIN with the pictures.

County Line Stone Co, a crushed-stone quarry the Mine Safety and Health Administration places 13.7 miles south-west, rounds out the ring of pits around town. Trucks registered to a quarry operator can be sold with the same paperwork as any other; have the title in the name that appears on it and a signer who can act for the business.

USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 444 farms in Orleans County, and its top products there are corn, soybeans and milk. Grain trucks, hopper tractors and milk haulers that serve those farms often sit in a barn or machine shed between seasons, and that is a fine place for us to pick one up.

Among carriers based in Medina, FMCSA’s carrier census shows 39 hauling farm supplies and 26 carrying grain, feed and hay. If your truck is listed under one of those cargo types, have its USDOT number handy along with the registration, since the number lets us match the truck to its operating record.

Medina has 122 active carriers on FMCSA’s carrier census, with 43 hauling general freight and 26 moving machinery and large objects. Flatbeds and lowboys from that machinery work are trucks we buy, and so are the box trucks and day cabs on general freight.

Only 6 of those carriers run interstate, against 116 intrastate and 89 private fleets, per FMCSA’s census. Most trucks here therefore stay inside New York, so the registration and inspection sticker you need to find will be New York ones.

Driver records in the same FMCSA census show 186 drivers working within 100 miles and 69 going beyond it. Across 20 carriers reporting mileage to FMCSA, the median comes to 11,625 miles per truck a year; if yours is one of them, a current odometer photo answers our first question.

The three biggest local fleets, as FMCSA’s census lists them, run 16, 14 and 12 power units. A fleet owner selling several trucks at once can send one list of VINs and yard addresses, and we plan the pickups from it.

In those FMCSA inspection records, about 59 percent of the trucks were ten or more years old.

Whatever the model year on your truck, keep the inspection reports from those roadside stops together with the title. Send them with your photos, and include any service records you still have from the shop that maintained it.

The National Bridge Inventory lists 6 bridges in Medina, one of them load-posted and one with less than 14 feet of clearance: Bates Road over the Erie Canal, at 13ft 11in. If your truck sits on the far side of the canal from that crossing, tell us the street so our driver routes the collection around it.

Batavia’s rail yard is 18.4 miles south-east of Medina on the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. A tractor that has shuttled freight to that yard can be collected wherever it is parked now, in Medina or near Batavia.

The New York State Department of Motor Vehicles office that serves Medina sellers is in Albion, at 14016 Route 31W, 8.8 miles from the village. If the title is lost or still shows a lienholder who has since been satisfied, that Albion office is where to request a replacement before we collect.

LEHD job counts from the Census Bureau put 3,087 jobs in Medina for 2023, with 828 in manufacturing, 288 in transportation and warehousing and 57 in construction. Box trucks from plant deliveries and pickups and dumps from those contractors all need the same three things from you: the title, the current registration and a set of clear photos.

• Can you collect a dump truck straight from the Shelby crushed-stone yard instead of a Medina street?Shelby Crushed Stone is 3 miles south-west of Medina on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list, and we collect from the quarry yard itself. Name the yard foreman or whoever holds the Shelby gate key when you contact us.
• Which DMV office replaces a lost title for a truck kept in Medina?The Albion office of the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles, at 14016 Route 31W, is 8.8 miles from Medina and handles replacement titles. Start that request before arranging the sale.
• Do you buy grain trucks and milk haulers from Orleans County farms?Orleans County has 444 farms producing mainly corn, soybeans and milk according to USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, and the trucks serving them are ones we buy. For a corn or dairy truck, the VIN, New York registration and barnyard photos are the place to begin.
