Collinwood, its intermodal ramp and the TBT terminal
Norfolk Southern TBT, a liquid bulk terminal listed by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, lies 1.4 miles south-west of Euclid. If your tractor has been dropping or hooking tank trailers there, mention the terminal when you first get in touch and tell us whether the tractor is parked inside its gate or back in town.
The COLLINGWOOD rail yard, 2.7 miles south-west on the North American Rail Network, and the Collinwood Yard intermodal ramp that the Bureau of Transportation Statistics places 3.2 miles out, sit side by side. A day cab that has shuttled boxes between that ramp and Euclid warehouses can be collected wherever it is sitting; send us the VIN, the odometer reading and a photo of each side.
Further toward downtown, the EAST 55TH ST yard shows up 10.1 miles away in the North American Rail Network. If your truck now sits on a lot near that yard rather than in Euclid, give us the street address and the name of whoever controls the lot so the pickup can be booked with them.
Petroleum terminals on the Cleveland side
Two petroleum product terminals named CLEVELAND - ASPHALT and CLEVELAND appear in Energy Information Administration listings at 10.9 and 11.1 miles south-west of Euclid. A tractor that has pulled fuel or asphalt trailers from those racks is one we will look at; have its registration and any hazmat or tank inspection paperwork in one folder before we talk.
Cleveland Terminal, another liquid bulk site on the Bureau of Transportation Statistics list, is also 11.1 miles out. When a truck has rotated between that terminal and the Norfolk Southern site near Euclid, a short note of which loads it carried helps us ask the right questions about the equipment that goes with it.
Coil, paper and moving freight out of Euclid
FMCSA’s carrier census records 246 active carriers based in Euclid, and 194 of them list general freight. The same census shows 29 hauling metal sheets, coils and rolls, 26 moving household goods and 24 carrying paper products. A flatbed tractor with coil racks or a straight truck with a moving box is a truck we want to hear about from sellers here.
Of those carriers, the federal census counts 104 running interstate, 142 intrastate and 58 as private fleets hauling their own goods. If a private-fleet truck is titled to a company, find out who signs for the business and have that signature ready when we collect.
New authorities keep appearing in Euclid: FMCSA’s census shows 33 carriers registered in 2024 and 25 in 2025. If you started a small operation in one of those years and are now selling its tractor, have the title, the current registration and your USDOT number to hand.
Local runs and long hauls from the lakefront
Euclid carriers report 288 drivers working within 100 miles and 363 working beyond it, according to the FMCSA census. A truck from the longer-haul side may be parked at a driver’s home rather than a yard, and that is fine; give us the address where it actually sits.
Across 41 carriers that reported both miles and trucks, FMCSA figures put the median at 26,316 miles per truck a year. Read the odometer and photograph the dash with the key on, and send that picture with the rest so the figure we discuss is the one on the truck.
The three biggest fleets on the carrier census here run 95, 29 and 20 power units. If you are selling several units from a fleet of that size, list each VIN with its title status and where it is parked, and we can plan to collect them together.
The 2019 median on Euclid’s inspected tractors
Across 155 Euclid trucks checked between September 2024 and August 2026, FMCSA roadside inspection records give a median model year of 2019. Those inspection records also put 27.1 percent of them at ten or more model years old.
Whatever the model year of yours, the paperwork list is the same: title, registration, and any inspection or service records you kept. If an inspection report from a roadside stop is in the cab, include it with the rest.
Jobs and routes
Warehousing, factories and Euclid’s bridges
The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for 2023 list 20,128 jobs in Euclid, with 6,241 in transportation and warehousing and 4,288 in manufacturing. LEHD also counts 955 jobs in wholesale trade and 556 in construction. Box trucks and tractors that serve docks in either sector are what we want to hear about; tell us the body type and trailer, if any, that goes with it.
In Cuyahoga County, County Business Patterns records 41 construction establishments, and USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 104 farms there, led by tomatoes, cut flowers and equine operations. A dump truck or a horse-hauling rig from either group is a truck we will talk about; send the plate and the VIN.
Euclid has 15 bridges on the National Bridge Inventory, with zero load-posted and zero below 14 feet of clearance. Tell us if your truck is in a back lot or a tight yard, and we will plan the collection around the access, not the roads.
The questions we get asked in Euclid
- My tractor is parked near the Collinwood intermodal ramp, not in Euclid. Does the collection happen at the ramp lot itself?It does, and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics puts the Collinwood Yard ramp 3.2 miles south-west of Euclid, and our driver comes to the truck at that spot. Name the company or person who runs that lot, and we book the collection through them.
- I haul steel coil out of Euclid. Is a flatbed tractor with coil racks something you take?Coil tractors are on our list, and FMCSA’s carrier census shows 29 Euclid carriers hauling metal sheets, coils and rolls. Send the VIN, the title and photos of the racks along with the tractor.
