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

The Energy Information Administration places the Glennwood Landing petroleum product terminal 3.5 miles north of Roslyn Heights, and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics records the Global Companies liquid bulk terminal at 3.6 miles in the same direction. If your tanker or fuel straight truck loads at either of those two, tell us which rack it used and send photos of the tank, the hose reel and the cab together.

Further out, a second pair of facilities sits 8.9 miles to the north-east: the Oyster Bay petroleum product terminal listed by the Energy Information Administration, and a Global liquid bulk terminal on the Bureau of Transportation Statistics register. A truck that is parked at a yard near Oyster Bay can stay there; give us the street address and the name of whoever can let us onto the lot.

For any tank unit, keep the tank’s test and inspection paperwork with the title. Send it with the first photos so our questions are about the truck itself and not about missing records.

FMCSA’s carrier census counts 39 active carriers based in Roslyn Heights, and 28 of them run as private fleets moving their own goods rather than hauling for hire. If your truck carries a business’s lettering, tell us whose name is on the title before we schedule anything.

Of those carriers, 31 operate intrastate and 7 cross state lines, again by FMCSA’s carrier census. A truck that has stayed inside New York will carry New York registration only; have the current registration card ready next to the title.

Drivers working for these carriers mostly stay close to home: the federal carrier census records 79 drivers within a 100-mile radius and 15 who go beyond it. Across the 8 carriers that report mileage to FMCSA, the median is 16,000 miles a truck a year. Read the odometer off the dash and send it with the VIN.

In FMCSA’s carrier census, 15 of the Roslyn Heights carriers put general freight on their cargo list. If yours is a straight truck with a lift gate, include a photo of the gate lowered and one of the inside of the box.

Five local carriers list fresh produce and three list refrigerated food, according to the same FMCSA census. For a reefer, send the reefer unit’s make and hour reading along with the truck’s VIN.

Another three carriers name garbage, refuse and trash as cargo in FMCSA’s records. For a packer or roll-off, tell us the body make and whether the truck is kept at a municipal yard or a private lot, so the pickup is arranged with whoever controls that gate.

The biggest carrier in town runs 27 power units and 21 drivers on FMCSA’s carrier census, and the next two run 5 and 4 power units. Owners of a single tractor or a handful of straight trucks can sell one truck at a time; you do not need to clear out the whole yard.

If you are retiring several units from a fleet that size, list each VIN, its plate and where it is parked. One contact who can open the yard for all of them makes the collection simpler.

Newer operators are on the list as well: FMCSA’s census shows 4 carriers registered in Roslyn Heights during 2025 and 1 during 2024. If you bought a truck recently and are already selling it, keep the bill of sale from your own purchase with the title.

In 2023 the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts put 2,310 jobs in Roslyn Heights, 173 of them in wholesale trade and 135 in construction. Dump trucks, flatbeds and delivery trucks that serve those jobs are trucks we collect, wherever the job site happens to be.

If your truck is parked at a job site rather than at home, give us the site address and say whether the gate is locked on weekends.

Nassau County had 29 farms on USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, led by equine operations and cut flowers. A horse-farm truck or a nursery straight truck is welcome too; tell us what body it carries.

A lost title in Roslyn Heights is replaced through the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles office at 400 Oak St in Garden City, about 4 miles away. File for the duplicate at Oak St first, then mention the pending request when you send us the truck’s details.

To the south-west, the North American Rail Network maps Jamaica Yard at 10.2 miles and the Jamaica rail yard at 10.8 miles. A truck that shuttles to those yards and is parked there at the end of a shift can be collected in place.

East of town, the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists the Broad Hollow Estates sand and gravel operation 11.4 miles out. If your dump truck hauls aggregate from there, send photos of the bed and the hoist with the cab.

The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation lists enforcement of both the Advanced Clean Trucks rule and the Heavy-Duty Low NOx Omnibus rule as paused; tell us the engine model year from the door sticker either way.

• Does a fuel truck kept near the Glennwood Landing racks have to come to Roslyn Heights first?The Energy Information Administration puts the Glennwood Landing terminal 3.5 miles north of Roslyn Heights, and we collect from there. Give us the lot address and the person who can open it.
• Can a Roslyn Heights private fleet sell one truck and keep the rest working?Twenty-eight of the 39 Roslyn Heights carriers in FMCSA’s census are private fleets, and selling one truck from any of them is fine. Send that truck’s VIN, title and registration.
