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

The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists South Central Sand & Gravel 3.8 miles south-west of Piketon and Piketon Sand & Gravel 4.6 miles out on that same side of town. Dump trucks and tri-axles that load at either pit often stay parked near the scale or in a yard close by between jobs. Tell us which pit gate is nearest to where the truck sits and we will plan the pickup from that end of town.

Further west, Latham Limestone #1 is a crushed-stone quarry 15.4 miles from Piketon on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list. A truck that has hauled stone from Latham can be collected at the quarry lot or at your house; you pick. Before we come, send a photo of the VIN plate on the door jamb and one of the odometer so the paperwork matches the truck we load.

East of town, DTS Sands runs its Beaver Mine 11.1 miles out and a bag plant 17.4 miles away, both recorded by the Mine Safety and Health Administration as industrial-mineral mines. Flatbeds and box trucks that move bagged sand between those two sites are trucks we buy. If yours stays on the plant property, give us the name of whoever can let our driver through the gate.

For a truck that worked the Beaver run, gather the registration, any service invoices you kept and clear photos of each side of the cab. The truck can stay out east; there is no need to bring it into Piketon.

Of the 39 active carriers that FMCSA’s carrier census places in Piketon, 15 list logs, poles, beams or lumber as cargo, set beside 16 that list general freight. Log trucks with a knuckle boom or a pole trailer fit what we collect, as do the tractors that pull them. Tell us whether the loader or trailer goes with the tractor so we bring the right equipment.

Eleven local carriers name machinery and large objects in their FMCSA filings, and four name farm supplies. For a lowboy or a tractor that has moved heavy equipment, include the axle count and the trailer’s own title if it is separate from the truck’s, since each unit carries a title of its own.

Twenty-nine of Piketon’s carriers run intrastate and nine run interstate, while 23 operate as private fleets carrying their own goods, according to the FMCSA carrier census. For a truck kept close to Ohio routes, the Ohio registration and the title are usually all the paperwork we need to start.

FMCSA’s census also counts 71 drivers who stay inside a 100-mile radius and 47 who go beyond it. Across the 12 carriers that reported mileage to FMCSA’s carrier census, a truck’s median annual distance comes to 25,056 miles. FMCSA’s carrier census lists one Piketon fleet with 15 power units and nine drivers and two more at six and five units. Whatever size your operation is, we can collect one truck or several from the same yard.

Piketon carriers had 26 trucks pulled into FMCSA roadside inspection records from February 2025 to August 2026; their median model year is 2017, and 38 percent carry a model year ten or more years back. Whatever the year on your title, have the VIN ready so we can confirm the make, model and engine first.

If the truck went through one of those roadside inspections, keep the report with your papers. It helps us identify the unit, and a copy sent with your photos saves a question later.

In Ohio, titles are handled by the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles through the County Clerk of Courts title offices. A Piketon seller who cannot find the certificate should start with a duplicate request at the Clerk of Courts title office before the pickup is scheduled.

If a lender is still listed on the title, ask them for the lien release at the same time you apply. Bring your driver’s license and the VIN to the clerk’s counter; once the duplicate is printed in your name, send us a photo of the front and back.

The North American Rail Network shows the Renick yard 17.6 miles north of Piketon and the Chillicothe yard at 18.1 miles. A truck that shuttles to either yard can be collected beside the tracks or wherever you keep it parked; tell us the cross street and whether a tow rig can turn around there.

Twenty miles north, NG Camp Sherman Joint Training Center appears in the Bureau of Transportation Statistics’ list of military installations. Pike County holds 478 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, with corn, milk and tomatoes leading, and 13 construction establishments appear in the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns. Grain trucks, milk tankers and contractors’ dumps from any of those operations are trucks we buy.

• The certificate for my Piketon log hauler is missing. Where do I get another in Pike County?Ohio titles go through the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles at the County Clerk of Courts title offices, so the Clerk of Courts title office is where to request a duplicate. Ask your lender for a lien release at the same time if one is listed.
• My tractor never leaves Ohio; is an intrastate-only rig something you take?Twenty-nine Piketon carriers in FMCSA’s carrier census run intrastate, so an Ohio-only truck is common here and we buy it the same way. Have the Ohio registration, the title and the VIN ready.
