Sell your semi truck for cash in Grafton the easy and convenient way

Grafton has 73 active motor carriers on file with FMCSA’s carrier census, with general freight declared by 42. If your box truck or tractor pulled mixed loads for one of those outfits, have the title in hand and a few clear photos of the cab, the frame and the trailer connections before you reach out.

Machinery and large objects appear on 17 carrier registrations, motor vehicles on 15 and farm supplies on 11, according to the same federal census. A lowboy tractor, a car hauler or a flatbed that moved feed and seed can all be sold from Grafton; tell us which of those it pulled so our questions fit the rig.

New entrants are steady rather than many here: FMCSA records two new carriers in Grafton for 2024 and two more for 2025. If you registered recently and are now closing out a single truck, keep your USDOT number and the registration card together with the title.

Of Grafton’s carriers, 54 run intrastate only and 18 cross state lines, the federal carrier census shows, while 26 are private fleets hauling their own goods. A truck that never left Ohio will most likely be parked in town or at a yard nearby when we come for it, so give us that address and the name of whoever holds the keys.

Driver counts filed with FMCSA put 135 drivers within a 100-mile radius and 161 beyond it. If your sleeper spends weeks out on longer runs, choose a date when it is home in Grafton or tell us where it will be sitting, and we plan the pickup around that spot.

Seventeen Grafton carriers file annual mileage with FMCSA, and their median sits at 30,000 miles per truck. Write down the current odometer reading along with the VIN; those two numbers answer most of what we ask first.

One Grafton fleet runs 141 power units with 112 drivers, per the FMCSA census, and another has 49 power units and 34 drivers. Selling several units at once is straightforward: send a list with each VIN and where each one is parked, and we work through the list together.

A third registration in the same census shows 26 power units and only 7 drivers. If some of your tractors sit without a driver assigned, they can still go; tell us which lot they are on and who can open the gate.

FMCSA roadside inspection records covering 97 trucks checked between September 2024 and August 2026 give a median model year of 2020. Bring the model year, the engine make and any service records you keep when you contact us.

A ten-plus-year-old truck made up 16.5 percent of that Grafton sample in FMCSA’s roadside inspection records. Older and newer units both fit what we purchase, so include the year on your first message and attach your most recent inspection report if you have it.

The Energy Information Administration places the Lorain petroleum product terminal 1.6 miles north-east of Grafton and an Owens Corning roofing and asphalt terminal 12.5 miles to the south-east. A tanker tractor that loads at either site can be collected right where it is staged; tell us which terminal it serves.

Rail yards sit at Elyria, 6.5 miles north, and South Lorain, 11.8 miles north, on the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. Further out, Transflo CSXT handles liquid bulk 22.7 miles north-east of Grafton on the Bureau of Transportation Statistics list. A day cab parked near any of these yards does not need to be driven back into town first.

Cleveland Quarries, a dimension-stone quarry 18.2 miles west, and the Cargill Deicing Solutions mine 21.7 miles north-east are both on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list, as is the Dock #1 Whiskey Island processing plant at 22 miles. Dump trucks and salt haulers from those sites are welcome; send photos of the bed or body along with the chassis.

The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts recorded 1,729 jobs in Grafton for 2023, with 108 of them, or 6.2 percent, in manufacturing. If your straight truck delivered for a local plant, a bill of sale or a letter from the business helps when the title is in a company name.

County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau counts 35 construction establishments here, and USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture lists 894 farms across Lorain County, led by soybeans, corn and cattle. Grain trucks, livestock haulers and contractor dump trucks parked on a farm lane or job site can be picked up there; if the Ohio title is missing, tell us at the start so replacing it is the first step.

• My tractor loads at the Lorain fuel terminal near Grafton. Will you pick it up at the terminal?The Energy Information Administration places that terminal 1.6 miles north-east of Grafton, and we can arrange collection at the terminal or wherever the tractor is parked.
