Aggregate pits off the square
Stone from the quarries on Caldwell’s west side
Sharon Stone Company runs a crushed-stone quarry 3.1 miles west of Caldwell, and KING QUARRIES INCORPORATED works another 3.5 miles south-west, both listed by the Mine Safety and Health Administration. A dump truck or tri-axle that hauls aggregate from either pit is the kind we collect, and it can stay parked at the quarry yard or your shop while we arrange pickup.
Further out, S & S Aggregate is a sand and gravel operation 24.8 miles west on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list. If your truck splits its runs between that pit and the stone quarries near town, tell us which site it sits at most nights so we know where to send the driver.
Have the VIN, the Ohio registration and a set of photos ready before you call: cab, frame, bed or body, and tires. For a quarry truck, any scale tickets or service records you kept help us understand what the truck carried.
Strip mines south-east
Orange Strip, Belmont and the coal haulers
Orange Strip, a coal mine 8.5 miles south-east, and CCU Belmont Strip, 24.5 miles north-east, both appear in Mine Safety and Health Administration records. In Caldwell, FMCSA’s carrier census shows 7 carriers listing coal or coke as cargo, out of 38 active carriers based in town.
A coal tractor or end-dump that has worked one of these strips can be sold from wherever it is kept. Give us the mine’s road or your yard’s address, and mention any gate or site access rules so the pickup goes smoothly.
Lowboys, log bunks and box vans on Caldwell’s carrier roll
General freight leads the cargo list in FMCSA’s carrier census, with 18 Caldwell carriers, followed by machinery and large objects at 12 and logs, poles, beams and lumber at 6. Lowboys, flatbeds and log trucks all fit what we take, alongside box trucks and tractors.
Of those 38 carriers, 26 run intrastate only and 12 cross state lines, according to the same FMCSA census, and 16 are private fleets moving their own goods. Whether your truck stayed inside Ohio or ran interstate, the Ohio title and current registration are what we need to see.
Caldwell’s top fleet on the FMCSA census lists 28 power units with 18 drivers, and the next two list 20 and 11. If you operate one of the smaller outfits and are selling more than one truck, list each VIN so we can collect them together.
Odometers and model years on trucks stopped near Caldwell
Twenty-seven Caldwell-based trucks went through FMCSA roadside inspections between September 2024 and August 2026, and their median model year in those records is 2018. About 48 percent of those inspected trucks were ten or more model years old, the FMCSA inspection records show.
Thirteen Caldwell carriers gave FMCSA’s census a mileage figure, putting the median truck at 10,200 miles a year. Note the current odometer reading when you send photos, together with the model year and engine, so the details match the truck we see on site.
A title office two blocks from the square
Ohio titles are issued through the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles at County Clerk of Courts title offices, and the Noble County Clerk of Courts Title Office stands at 401 West Street, Caldwell, 43724, just 0.2 miles from the centre of town. If your title is lost or still shows a lender’s lien, that office is where a replacement or a cleared copy comes from.
Bring your ID and the truck’s VIN to West Street, and if a lender held the title, ask them for a lien release first. Once the title is in your name and clear, sign nothing until we arrange collection, and we will walk you through where to sign.
