Why sell to Big Ugly Truck?

Because you want the truck gone — not another listing, another no-show, or another "maybe."

We’re a direct buyer, not a broker. You deal with us. We buy semi trucks (our specialty) plus box, dump, utility, vocational, dually, and pickup — as long as it’s complete. Clear title required. All 50 states. We come to you.

The pitch in three beats:

1. Straight deal — no auction fees, no middleman cut, no endless tire-kickers.

2. Honest process — photos to start, offer you can take or leave, pay at pickup.

3. We handle the hard part — pickup and title work so you’re not chasing buyers across town.

Ugly ones welcome. Pretty ones too. If the title’s in hand, we’re ready to talk.

We buy trucks in Schoharie

There are 82 trucking companies registered in Schoharie, and 42 of them are one-truck owner-operators. That's a lot of trucks working the same roads, and every one of them gets to the point where it's worth more sold than fixed. If that's where you are, you don't need a listing or an auction lot. Send us the photos, take the offer or leave it, and we come to Schoharie and pay at pickup.

42 owner-operators run out of Schoharie with one truck to their name. When that truck is done — the engine's tired, the emissions system is eating the profit, or you're just done driving — it's still worth money. We buy it direct, no broker, no consignment.

62 companies in Schoharie run their own trucks instead of hiring it out. When a unit comes off the rotation, most of them trade it in and take whatever the dealer says. We'll make an offer on the whole truck instead, and we'll buy the whole batch if you're turning over the fleet.

Albany Port District, NY sits 27 miles from Schoharie, and the trucks that work it are day cabs and sleepers pulling containers on short turns. That work wears trucks out on the clutch and the frame, not the odometer. We buy them anyway. Clear title, and we'll pick it up at the yard.

Schoharie Quarry is 2 miles from Schoharie, pulling crushed, broken stone, and Howes Cave and Amrize Ravena Plant aren't far behind. That's dump trucks, mixers, end dumps and water trucks, and they get used hard. We buy them with the miles on them and the bed rusted through. Clear title, and we'll take it off the site.

Schoharie is milk country — 503 farms in Schoharie County, and every one of them moves product on trucks. Grain haulers, hopper trucks, cattle haulers, flatbeds for hay. If yours has seen its last harvest, send us a few photos.

15 construction outfits work out of Schoharie, and construction trucks live hard lives. Dump trucks, mixers, service bodies, lowboys, water trucks — we buy them with the dents and the hydraulic leaks. You'd have to fix them to sell them anywhere else; you don't have to fix them to sell to us.

If the title's lost, get a duplicate first — the nearest office is 284 Main St, Schoharie. Then call us. We can't buy without a clear title, but once you have it we can finish the rest fairly quickly.

How fast do you pay?

At pickup. Cash or electronic, your choice.

Do you come to Schoharie?

Yes. We come to you anywhere in New York.

What if the truck doesn't start?

Send photos and tell us what it does. We buy trucks that are worth repairing.

What if there's a lien?

Tell us who holds it. We pay the lienholder and you get the difference at the same time.

What if I lost the title?

Get a duplicate from New York first. We'll wait; we can't close without it.

Do you buy more than one?

Yes. Fleets, pairs, a truck and a trailer together.

Fill out the form or call. We come to Schoharie, we pay at pickup, and we take the truck and the title the same day.

The Schoharie Valley

A quarry, and a short list of bad crossings

The row attached to Schoharie is a crushed-stone operation MSHA records with 12 employees, 2.15 miles from the Census centroid of the village. It joins NYSDOT’s approved source register 0.55 miles away as a Heidelberg entry at Middleburgh, listed as a stonefill source, which means it is qualified to supply publicly funded work in that class.

Within ten miles of the quarry the 2025 National Bridge Inventory records 113 structures. Two are coded posted for load and two are coded below legal loads, and the nearest of those is 5.44 miles away. By the standards of a stone-hauling road that is a short list.

Who holds the bridge

But both of them belong to the county, and that is unusual

Both of the two restrictions here are county-maintained, which is not how it usually falls. The state maintains 43.2% of New York’s structures and counties 35.7%, with towns and municipalities holding the rest, so the county is one tier of four — and at most pits in this batch the restrictions land on some other tier entirely.

It matters because what a seller or a hauler can do about a posting depends on who put it there. A county posting, a town posting and a state posting are three different offices and three different conversations, and here there is only one of them to have.

The lowest rating that binds a working truck is 18.1 tonnes, about 20.0 US tons. Over the empty weight of a tandem dump that admits roughly 7.1 tonnes of stone — a part load rather than a full one, on the crossing that decides it.

FHWA National Bridge Inventory 2025, New York file; items 41, 64 and 70. Ratings are the gross weight of the rating vehicle, not a payload.

New York weight law

So the permit and the posting answer different questions

So it is worth being clear about which one is binding on any given day.

Vehicle and Traffic Law § 385 sets a maximum of 80,000 lb or less depending on axle spacing, and running above legal weight means a divisible load overweight permit from NYSDOT — written commodity-neutral, with no list of favoured industries in it. Stone is a divisible load by definition. Beneath the permit the state allows 22,400 lb on a single axle and 36,000 lb on two consecutive axles under eight feet, against federal figures of 20,000 lb and 34,000 lb, and federal limits govern the interstate system.

The permit raises what the state will let you carry. It does nothing at all to the rating on the bridge, and out here the bridge is usually the one that answers first.

New York paperwork

We need a title — unless it never had one

Beyond the roads, the paperwork comes down to that one sentence.

Everything after it is a fix rather than a category. A lost title has a counter replacement; where none exists there is a bonded route. New York reaches its salvage brand by four separate routes and its seventy-five per cent repair-cost test applies only to a vehicle eight model years old or newer, so on an older truck it does not arise. Once applied the brand is permanent, and the DMV must examine a rebuilt vehicle for stolen parts before it can be registered or titled.

What we buy around Schoharie

Those rules cover all of it, and all of it is iron we buy. Dump trucks and aggregate haulers off the quarry. Farm trucks and grain hauls off the valley floor. Flatbeds, day cabs, service bodies, and the work trucks and pickups that go out with a crew.

Whatever you drive, the offer doesn’t change. We buy all of them, whether it works out of the quarry 2.15 miles from the village or never goes past the posted crossing 5.44 miles the other way.

We buy complete trucks. If the engine, transmission, doors, rear ends, drive shafts, wheels or anything under the hood have been removed, we can’t buy it. Small things — a missing bumper — are fine.

Straight answers

The questions we get asked in Schoharie

  • Does it have to run?No. It does have to be complete — if the engine, transmission, doors, rear ends, drive shafts, wheels or anything under the hood have been removed, we can’t buy it. Rust is not a disqualifier.
  • The engine is out of it. Is that different?Yes, and that is the line. A tired engine is fine; an engine that has been pulled out and sold means we can’t buy the truck.
  • What about the title?We need one unless the truck is old enough that it never had one. A lost title has a counter replacement; where none exists there’s a bonded route.
  • The truck cannot legally cross the bridge on my road loaded. Is that my problem to solve?No. If it is going on a tow it goes empty and it goes on our arrangement, so the rating on your road stops being the deciding factor.
  • It is a farm truck, not a highway truck.That is fine and it is common here. Seasonal use and low road miles are an ordinary shape rather than a mark against it — with the quarry 2.15 miles one way and the nearest restricted crossing 5.44 miles the other, plenty of trucks around here never had a reason to go far.

Why people call

Beyond a truck that has finished its seasons in the valley, the reasons are personal ones. Retiring off the land. A business that changed shape. One truck too many after a contract ended. A truck that has spent its whole life between the quarry 2.15 miles out and the same two county bridges 5.44 miles the other way is worth no less for it.

Most of those aren’t happy reasons, and we don’t treat them like they are. Somebody wants a straight answer and the truck gone by the end of the week. That’s what we’re here for.

The village and the valley around it. We can come to you, or buy it remotely and arrange the tow — useful here, because the truck then never has to cross the posted bridge to be sold.
