Freight, machinery and passenger outfits by the Hudson
General freight is the trade for 24 of the 55 Tarrytown carriers active on FMCSA’s carrier census. If yours is one of those box trucks or tractors, send the VIN, the registration and a few photos of the cab and the cargo area, and we can start from there.
Machinery and large objects account for 6 carriers on the same federal census, while 4 move motor vehicles and 4 carry passengers. A car hauler, a lowboy or a small bus all fit what we collect; tell us what body sits on the chassis and what it hauled.
On FMCSA’s carrier census, 39 local carriers are intrastate, 16 are interstate and 32 are private fleets. A company truck from a private fleet sells the same way an owner-operator’s does: we need the title in the business’s name and someone authorised to sign it.
Yards of a few trucks
Small fleets along the river
Three Tarrytown fleets on FMCSA’s carrier census run 10, 8 and 7 power units, the second of them with 60 drivers on its roster. If you are clearing several trucks out of one yard, list each VIN and where each one is parked, and we will arrange the collections together.
The same federal census lists 147 drivers working within 100 miles and 27 going beyond that. A truck whose routes stayed inside that local radius is likely parked close to home when we come for it, so a street address and a gate contact are usually all the location detail we need.
For 14 local carriers reporting mileage, the median sits at 8,961 miles per truck a year according to FMCSA’s carrier census. Have the odometer reading ready when you get in touch; it goes on the bill of sale with the VIN.
Stone pits across the river, rail shops up the bank
West Nyack Quarry, a crushed-stone operation 5.7 miles north-west, appears in the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s records, as does Haverstraw Quarry & Mill at 8.9 miles. Dump trucks and tri-axles that served those pits can be collected from a quarry lot or a contractor’s yard; tell us whose property it stands on so access is arranged ahead of time.
Up the east bank, the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics places Harmon Shops 8.8 miles north and North Croton 10.1 miles north. If a truck has worked rail-side jobs around those yards, send any site passes or records you kept along with the photos.
Fuel terminals east and north
Westmore Fuels, 11.8 miles east, shows up both in the Bureau of Transportation Statistics as a liquid bulk terminal and in Energy Information Administration listings as a petroleum product terminal. Cortland Manor, another petroleum terminal, lies 16.6 miles north on the Energy Information Administration’s list.
If your tractor or straight tank truck loaded at those racks, keep the tank inspection paperwork and any hazmat placard history together with the title. Those documents travel with the truck when we collect it, so the next owner has the record.
Title, inspections and the roads out
A missing New York title is replaced through the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles; its White Plains office at 1 Maple Ave is 6.1 miles from Tarrytown. Start that replacement before we schedule collection, since the title in your name is the one document we cannot work around.
FMCSA roadside inspection records between October 2024 and August 2026 cover 31 Tarrytown trucks, with a median model year of 2015 and 51.6 percent ten or more model years old. Whatever the year on yours, the registration card and any service records you have help us confirm the details you give us.
The National Bridge Inventory counts 8 bridges in Tarrytown, with none load-posted and none under 14 feet. Our carrier can reach a truck parked anywhere in town, so give us the exact spot rather than moving it.
Construction, factories and nurseries
Census Bureau LEHD job counts for 2023 put 9,982 jobs in Tarrytown, with 215 in construction, 212 in manufacturing and 200 in wholesale trade. Flatbeds, stake bodies and delivery trucks from that work are the kinds of trucks we collect here.
Ninety-three construction establishments operate locally, by the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns tally. Across Westchester County, USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture lists 108 farms, led by equine operations, potted flowering plants and foliage plants, and nursery box trucks or rigs pulling horse trailers belong on the list too.
The questions we get asked in Tarrytown
- My dump truck sits on a West Nyack quarry lot across the river; does it have to come over to Tarrytown first?West Nyack Quarry is 5.7 miles north-west of Tarrytown on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s records, and we collect the truck where it stands. Send the quarry lot’s address plus the name of whoever holds the gate key there.
- The title went missing after years in a Tarrytown glovebox; is the White Plains DMV the place to go?The New York State Department of Motor Vehicles office at 1 Maple Ave in White Plains, 6.1 miles away, handles replacement titles. Bring proof of identity and the VIN, and tell us once the duplicate is in hand.
- Are the paused New York clean-truck regulations something a Tarrytown diesel owner must sort out before selling?Enforcement is paused for both Advanced Clean Trucks and the Heavy-Duty Low NOx Omnibus, according to what New York’s Department of Environmental Conservation has posted. Include the engine’s model year when you first write to us about the truck.
