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

FMCSA’s carrier census lists 300 active motor carriers based in Roosevelt, and 270 of them are registered for intrastate work only, against 30 that cross state lines. If your truck has spent its life on Nassau and Suffolk routes, it is the usual Roosevelt truck, and we collect it from the yard or driveway where it already sits.

Private fleets account for 228 of those Roosevelt carriers in the same federal census, meaning businesses moving their own goods rather than hauling for hire. A contractor or landscaper selling a single box truck or dump truck should have the title in the company’s name ready, plus a letter from whoever signs for the business.

Fleets here are small: the biggest Roosevelt operator in FMCSA’s register runs 16 power units with 15 drivers, and the next two run 6 and 5. Selling one or two units from an outfit that size is routine for us; send the VINs together and we handle them as one collection.

Refuse, utility and lumber loads beside general freight

In FMCSA’s census, 184 Roosevelt carriers declare general freight as cargo and 60 list garbage, refuse and trash. Roll-off and rear-loader owners should photograph the body, the hoist or packer and the chassis plate so we can see the full unit before we talk.

The FMCSA census also counts 19 local carriers in utility work and 18 hauling logs, poles, beams and lumber. Bucket trucks, flatbeds and boom units fall into that group; list any mounted equipment by make and model, since the body matters as much as the cab on those trucks.

New registrations keep arriving in Roosevelt: FMCSA recorded 19 new carriers in 2024 and 17 in 2025. If you started up in one of those years and are now changing direction, your USDOT number and the truck’s registration are the two documents to have on hand.

Short runs and modest annual miles

Drivers working inside a 100-mile radius number 464 among Roosevelt carriers, compared with 278 who run beyond it, according to the carrier census kept by FMCSA. A truck that stays local is normally parked within reach of Roosevelt itself, which keeps pickup simple: give us the street address and gate details.

Mileage reported to FMCSA by 63 Roosevelt carriers puts the typical truck at 6,575 miles in a year, at the median. Read the odometer before you call and include it with the VIN; those two figures start every conversation we have about a truck.

A median model year of 2007 shows up across the 128 Roosevelt-based trucks stopped at roadside between August 2024 and August 2026, per FMCSA inspection records, and 78.1 percent of that group carry a model year ten or more years back. Check that the year printed on your New York title and the year on your registration agree before we collect.

Terminals, rail yards and a gravel operation close by

Two petroleum product terminals, Lawrence Blending and Long Island Blending, sit 8.9 miles west of Roosevelt in Energy Information Administration records. Fuel trucks that load there can be sold from wherever they are parked between runs; tell us whether the tank is empty and cleaned so the collection is planned correctly.

Two liquid bulk terminals operated under the Global name appear in Bureau of Transportation Statistics listings, one 10.9 miles north-west and one 13.9 miles north of town. If your tanker is kept at or near either site, give us a contact who can let a driver onto the property.

Westward, the North American Rail Network maintained by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics shows Jamaica Yard 11.7 miles away and the Jamaica yard 12.3 miles away. Drayage trucks working those Queens yards are collected at their home base in Queens or Nassau.

Construction jobs and a sand and gravel pit

Of 2,399 jobs located in Roosevelt in 2023, the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts put 146 in construction, 6.1 percent, and 128 in manufacturing, 5.3 percent. Dump trucks, stake bodies and delivery vans from that work are all trucks we collect; have the body type written down along with the chassis details.

If your truck belongs to one of them and sits on a job site, tell us which site and when it is open, and we arrange the pickup there.

Broad Hollow Estates Inc, a sand and gravel operation registered with the Mine Safety and Health Administration, lies 10.2 miles north-east. Aggregate haulers that load there can be sold from the pit lot or your yard; just confirm who has the keys and the title.

Titles, rules and farm trucks in Nassau

A missing title is replaced through the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles, whose Garden City office at 400 Oak St sits 3.5 miles from Roosevelt. Start that replacement before we arrange collection, and keep the receipt to show the application is under way.

Diesel owners in Roosevelt face no wait on the Advanced Clean Trucks or Heavy-Duty Low NOx Omnibus regulations, since New York’s Department of Environmental Conservation shows enforcement of each paused. You can sell the truck you have now under the rules as they stand.

USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 29 farms in Nassau County, led by equine and by cut flowers and cultivated greens. A horse-hauling truck or a nursery delivery truck from one of those farms is welcome too; bring the farm plate registration along with the title.

The questions we get asked in Roosevelt

  • Plenty of Roosevelt trucks date from around 2007. Do you collect trucks from those years?FMCSA roadside inspection records give 2007 as the median model year for Roosevelt trucks, so that year is common here. Send the VIN and the title details with a few photos of the cab and chassis.
