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

The Mine Safety and Health Administration places Piqua Materials, a crushed-stone quarry, 4.1 miles south of town, and Barrett Paving Materials Inc 5.1 miles to the north-east. If your dump truck or tri-axle has been hauling aggregate out of either one, tell us which pit it worked and send photos of the bed, the hoist and the cab so we can see the whole rig.

Further out, Hardin Sand and Gravel lies 8.5 miles north and Troy Gravel 9.1 miles south, both listed by the Mine Safety and Health Administration as sand and gravel operations. A truck that is still parked at a pit yard can stay there; give us the gate contact and the hours the yard is open, and we plan the collection around them.

Have the title in the name on the registration before we schedule anything, and keep any service records from the quarry seasons together in one folder; those papers answer most of the questions we would otherwise ask about a gravel truck.

Of the 8,893 jobs the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts place in Piqua for 2023, 2,470 were in manufacturing, a 27.8 percent share. The same LEHD figures count 633 wholesale trade jobs and 337 in transportation and warehousing. Tractors and box trucks that ran between those plants and their customers are the kind of equipment we collect from lots in town.

FMCSA’s carrier census shows 13 Piqua carriers hauling metal sheets, coils and rolls and another 13 hauling machinery and large objects. If your flatbed or step-deck carried coil, mention the coil racks, chains and binders that go with it, and photograph the deck and the securement points before you call.

Ten local carriers in that same FMCSA census list motor vehicles as cargo, and 29 list general freight. Whatever the trailer type, the VIN, the title and the registration are the three things to have in hand when you reach out.

FMCSA’s carrier census shows 74 active carriers based in town: 40 interstate, 34 intrastate, and 33 of them private fleets. A private-fleet truck often belongs to a manufacturer or contractor rather than to the driver, so check whose name is on the title before you start the sale.

Piqua’s top three operations in FMCSA’s files field 70, 40 and 30 power units, crewed by 90, 42 and 29 drivers respectively. A smaller outfit selling one tractor and a larger company clearing several units are handled the same way: list each VIN, where each one is parked, and who can release it.

FMCSA’s census records one new carrier in Piqua in 2025 and two in 2024. If you started your authority recently and are now selling the truck you bought for it, keep the purchase paperwork and the current registration with the title.

FMCSA’s carrier filings count 114 drivers in Piqua working within 100 miles and 398 working beyond that radius. A truck on longer runs may be away from Miami County when you decide to sell; tell us the city and lot where it will be parked, and we arrange pickup there.

Twenty-nine Piqua carriers file annual mileage with FMCSA, and their median truck covers 52,254 miles in a year. Note the odometer reading when you take your photos, and include it with the VIN in your first message.

Piqua carriers had 166 trucks stopped for checks between September 2024 and August 2026, and FMCSA roadside inspection records put their median model year at 2022, with 23.5 percent built ten or more years earlier. Newer and older units alike go through the same steps with us.

Whatever year your truck is, keep its recent inspection reports in the cab folder. Send copies along with the title and registration so the paperwork is complete at the start.

Of Piqua’s 21 bridges in the National Bridge Inventory, a single one carries a posted load limit, and not one drops below 14 feet of clearance. If your truck sits on a lot reached over that posted bridge, say so, and we route the carrier that collects it accordingly.

Out west, the North American Rail Network records the ANSONIA rail yard 22.2 miles away, and the NEEDMORE yard lies 23.1 miles south. Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, listed by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, is 24.9 miles south-east. A truck parked near any of those can be collected where it stands.

Grain trucks and livestock haulers parked on a farm lane are fine; give us the road name and a phone number for whoever is on the property, and we handle the rest.

Piqua’s building trades show up as 47 construction establishments in the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns and 462 construction jobs in the 2023 LEHD job counts. Dump trucks, roll-offs and equipment haulers from that work are trucks we buy.

If a contractor’s truck carries a body or attachment that comes off, tell us whether it goes with the sale. Photos of the body, the chassis plate with the VIN, and the title together let us move straight to arranging collection.

• Does my tri-axle have to leave the pit yard near Piqua Materials before you collect it?Piqua Materials sits 4.1 miles south of town on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list, and Troy Gravel 9.1 miles south; we collect from yards like those. Pass along who opens the pit gate and which hours that yard keeps.
• Which papers and photos matter for a coil-hauling flatbed from Piqua?FMCSA’s carrier census lists 13 Piqua carriers hauling metal sheets, coils and rolls in town. Send the VIN, the title, the registration and photos of the deck, the cab and any coil racks that go with the truck.
• My tractor is parked out of state after a long run from Piqua; does that rule it out?FMCSA filings show 398 Piqua drivers working beyond 100 miles, so trucks here are often far from home when owners decide to sell. Tell us where it will be parked, and we arrange pickup at that spot.
• Will you come out to a Miami County hog or grain farm for my truck?USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 1,158 farms in Miami County, and farm lanes are ordinary collection points for us. Send the road name and a contact on the property.
