Gravel pits south-west, crushed stone to the west
The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists a sand and gravel operation named Circleville just 2.7 miles south-west of town, and another, Tow Path Products, 12.8 miles to the south. Dump trucks and tri-axles that cycle between those pits and job sites are exactly what we collect. If yours is still parked at a pit, tell us which one and who holds the gate key.
West of town, the Williamsport Plant crushed-stone quarry sits 14.2 miles out according to MSHA listings. A stone hauler that worked that run can stay in its yard in Williamsport; give us the address, the VIN and a few photos of the body and chassis, and pickup is planned around the quarry’s hours.
Construction work is part of the same picture: County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau counts 54 construction establishments in the area, and LEHD job counts put 122 jobs in construction here in 2023. Contractors closing out a dump truck or a lowboy tractor should have the title and current registration in hand when they call.
Rickenbacker
The rail and intermodal corridor to the north
About 12.8 miles north of Circleville, the North American Rail Network shows the Rickenbacker Intermodal yard, and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics lists the Columbus rail intermodal ramp 13.1 miles out in the same direction. Day cabs that dray containers off those ramps are welcome; send the odometer reading with the VIN so we start from the right truck.
Rickenbacker is also home to two military installations listed by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, at 14.1 and 14.6 miles north. If your tractor is parked on a lot near the airfield rather than at home in Pickaway County, that is fine: tell us whose lot it is and we will arrange access with them.
Heading the other way, the CHILLICOTHE rail yard lies 19 miles south on the North American Rail Network. A truck sitting down near Chillicothe does not need to be driven back north to be sold; we go to it.
Corn, soybeans and milk
Pickaway County’s 760 farms grow corn and soybeans and ship milk ahead of anything else, by USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture. Grain trucks, bulk feed haulers and milk tankers from those farms all fit what we buy, and a farm truck can be collected right from the barn lot.
Among carriers based here, 19 list farm supplies as cargo in FMCSA’s carrier census, and the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts show 50 agriculture jobs in 2023. Find the farm truck’s title before you call. If it is missing, request a duplicate from the state title office first; the sale cannot close without it.
Freight, machinery and car haulers registered in town
FMCSA’s carrier census lists 128 active carriers in Circleville. The same FMCSA census shows 83 running intrastate and 42 crossing state lines, while 46 are private fleets hauling their own goods. Whether you run a single power unit or a yard full, we handle each truck on its own paperwork.
General freight is the cargo most carriers here list, at 76 in the FMCSA census, followed by machinery and large objects at 32 and motor vehicles at 23. A car hauler, a step-deck tractor or a dry van tractor all qualify; tell us the trailer setup if the tractor is being sold with one.
Drivers based around town range widely: FMCSA records show 1,851 drivers working beyond a 100-mile radius and 336 staying within it. If your truck is out on a long run, we can schedule collection for when it is back in Pickaway County.
Inspected Pickaway trucks and their yearly miles
Between August 2024 and August 2026, FMCSA roadside inspection records covered 702 trucks tied to Circleville carriers. Half of those inspected trucks were 2020 models or newer, the inspection records show, and 24.5 percent dated back ten or more model years. Every model year is on our list, so have the year, make and model ready when you reach out.
Among the 44 local carriers that report mileage to FMCSA, a typical truck logs 14,971 miles a year. Note your own odometer reading and keep service records in the cab; they travel with the truck when we collect it.
Manufacturing and wholesale jobs
Manufacturing holds 513 of Circleville’s 4,664 jobs, or 11 percent, in the Census Bureau’s 2023 LEHD job counts, and wholesale trade adds 161 more. Box trucks and tractors that served plants and distribution docks in town are a fit; have the registration and any inspection paperwork together.
Transportation and warehousing accounts for 62 jobs in the same 2023 LEHD figures. New entrants keep arriving as well: FMCSA’s carrier census shows 10 carriers registering here in 2025 and 6 in 2024. An owner-operator winding down a first truck can sell it to us the same way a long-standing fleet does.
