General freight, feed and machinery out of Hicksville

FMCSA’s carrier census lists 41 active carriers in Hicksville, and 29 of them mark general freight among their cargo. If your tractor has been pulling mixed loads out of town, have the title and current registration in your name before you call, and a photo of the VIN plate on the door jamb.

Grain, feed and hay appear on 16 of those 41 registrations in the FMCSA carrier census, with farm supplies on 14. A truck that has spent its seasons on hopper or feed runs is one we collect from the farm lane or the shed where it sits; send us the address and a note about whether a tractor-trailer can turn in the yard.

Twelve Hicksville carriers list machinery and large objects, again per FMCSA’s census. If yours is a lowboy rig or a tractor that moved equipment, photograph the fifth wheel and the trailer connections along with the cab, and tell us whether the trailer is part of the sale.

Authority and fleet counts

Private fleets, interstate authority and fleet size

Of the town’s carriers, 24 hold interstate authority and 16 run intrastate only, while 22 operate as private fleets hauling their own goods, according to FMCSA’s carrier census. A private-fleet truck is often titled to the business rather than a person, so check whose name is on the title and bring a signed authorisation if you are selling on the company’s behalf.

The three biggest operations in town run 20, 20 and 16 power units, with 20, 20 and 17 drivers, as FMCSA’s census records them. Selling several units from one yard works the same as selling one: list each VIN, gather each title, and we arrange the collection around the trucks’ location.

New registrations stay modest in the FMCSA census, with two carriers added in 2025 and one in 2024. A newer operator winding down can sell a single truck to us; the paperwork we ask for is the title, the registration and any lien release if the truck was financed.

Among drivers working for Hicksville carriers, 49 stay within 100 miles and 109 operate beyond that radius, the FMCSA carrier census shows. If your truck is parked out of state at the end of a long run, it does not need to come home first; give us the address where it stands.

Nineteen carriers here report mileage to FMCSA’s census, and their median is 48,000 miles a truck each year. Read the odometer and photograph the dash so the figure you give us matches the one on the title paperwork.

FMCSA roadside inspection records cover 44 trucks from Hicksville carriers checked between October 2024 and July 2026, with a median model year of 2019.5 and 34 percent of them ten or more model years old. Whatever the model year of yours, the steps are the same: VIN, odometer reading, photos of all four sides and the cab interior.

Gravel, cement and stone

Gravel, cement and stone south and north of town

The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists a sand and gravel operation 9.1 miles north of Hicksville and the Amrize Paulding Plant, a cement plant 11.5 miles to the south-east. A dump truck or mixer kept at either site can be collected there; tell us who controls the gate so the pickup is cleared with them.

Scott Quarry, a crushed-stone quarry, lies 24.3 miles south on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s register. If your truck hauled stone from there and you keep weigh tickets or service logs, set them in the cab with the title; they answer questions before we have to ask them.

Rail yards to the east and the jobs in town

Two rail yards sit within a short drive on the North American Rail Network: Defiance (NDR), 20.4 miles east, and Montpelier, 21.7 miles north-east. If your truck has been shuttling loads to either yard and is parked there now, send us the yard name and a contact who can let us in.

Hicksville counted 1,721 jobs in 2023 in the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts, and manufacturing accounted for 593 of them, or 34.5 percent, with wholesale trade at 53. A box truck or straight truck that served a plant or a warehouse here is part of what we buy; have the registration and the title ready, and tell us whether a company or a person holds it.

Ten construction establishments operate around Hicksville on the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns, and their dump trucks and flatbeds often stay in Defiance County. Contractors selling a dump truck or a flatbed should note any body or crane attached, so the photos and the description cover the whole unit.

Hopper trucks and milk routes on county farms

Soybeans lead the crop list across the 907 Defiance County farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, followed by corn and then milk. Farm trucks that haul grain at harvest or milk through the year are often parked on the farm itself, and that is where we come to collect them.

A farm truck can be titled to the farm, a family member or a partnership. Before you contact us, look at the name on the title; if it is lost, the state’s title agency issues a duplicate, and the request needs to come from the person or business named on it.
