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

Urbancrest sits in the south-west corner of Franklin County with two limestone quarries a few miles east, fuel terminals a few miles north and Columbus rail yards ringing it, so the trucks parked here haul stone, freight, fuel and mail.

Selling a truck in Urbancrest? Tell us about it and we'll take it from there.

Limestone past the town line

Aggregate haulers working the pits east of town

HAZMAG #1, a crushed-stone quarry the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists 3.4 miles east of Urbancrest, and Columbus Limestone, 3.6 miles out in the same direction, sit almost side by side. A dump truck or tri-axle that hauls aggregate from those pits can be sold from the yard where it parks between loads; give us that address when you call.

Since both quarries are within four miles of town, an Urbancrest stone hauler may spend its whole week on short runs. Send photos of the bed, the hoist, the cab and each axle, plus the VIN plate, and tell us which pit it loads at so we know where to send the pickup crew.

Racks up toward the city

Urbancrest tank rigs loading at two petroleum racks

The Energy Information Administration places the COLUMBUS EAST petroleum product terminal 3.6 miles north of Urbancrest and COLUMBUS SOUTH 4.1 miles north. A tractor that pulls fuel from those racks, or a straight tank truck delivering locally, is a truck we buy, and the tank trailer can come along with it if you own both.

For a fuel hauler, gather the hazmat placard history you hold, the tank’s latest test papers and the tractor’s title before we talk. If the trailer carries its own title under its own serial number, have that one in hand too.

Yards around the crest

Day cabs on the Parsons and Buckeye shuttle

Six miles east of town, the North American Rail Network maps the PARSONS rail yard, and the BUCKEYE yard lies 6.5 miles north-west. A day cab that shuttles between those yards and Urbancrest warehouses may be parked at a terminal lot when you sell, so tell us whether the gate needs a pass before collection.

The Columbus, OH - Buckeye Yard ramp, which the Bureau of Transportation Statistics lists 7.2 miles north of Urbancrest, handles containers, and that agency also records Transflo CSXT, a liquid bulk terminal 6.5 miles east. Container chassis tractors and bulk tankers from either site can be picked up right at the lot; the VIN and the odometer reading are the first two things we ask for.

Mail, beverage and freight operators in the village

Urbancrest has 10 active carriers on FMCSA’s carrier census, and eight of them list general freight, two list beverages, two list U.S. Mail and one lists refrigerated food. A reefer unit, a beverage bay trailer tractor or a mail route straight truck from one of those operations is the kind of vehicle we collect here.

Of those ten operators, four run interstate and six stay intrastate, while five operate as private fleets, according to the same FMCSA census. That census shows the biggest local operation fielding 11 power units with 11 drivers, the next with 6 of each, and the third with a single truck and 2 drivers, so a sale here is often one truck rather than a whole yard.

Two new carriers registered in Urbancrest during 2025 and none in 2024, per FMCSA’s records. If you started hauling recently and are selling your first truck, the current title in your name and your USDOT number are what we will need to see.

Local routes and long hauls split nearly evenly

FMCSA’s carrier census counts 22 Urbancrest drivers working inside a hundred-mile radius and 21 going farther. A sleeper that has spent nights out of state may be parked anywhere on its route when you decide to sell, and we can arrange collection wherever it is, so name the city and the lot.

For drivers on local routes, the truck may be parked in Franklin County when you call. Tell us whether it sits at home, at a shipper’s dock or at a quarry gate, and send the registration card along with photos of the dashboard and both sides.

Distribution floor jobs

Wholesale and freight jobs in town

In 2023 the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts recorded 1,727 jobs located in Urbancrest, with 728 of them, or 42.2 percent, in wholesale trade and 229, or 13.3 percent, in transportation and warehousing. Box trucks and tractors that move goods out of those wholesale buildings are welcome here, from a single straight truck to a pair of tractors.

If your delivery truck carries a liftgate or a reefer unit, list the body type, the gate or reefer make and the trailer length. Service records for any of that equipment help us understand the truck before the pickup is booked.

Urbancrest’s nearest title counter, out on West Broad Street

Ohio titles come from the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles through county Clerk of Courts title offices, and the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles lists the Franklin County Clerk of Courts Title Office on West Broad Street in the Hollywood Shopping Center, Columbus 43228, about 3.8 miles from Urbancrest. A lost title is replaced there, and the replacement is what we collect at pickup.

If a lender still shows on the title, bring the lien release to that West Broad Street counter with you so the reissued title comes back clear. Once you hold it, send us a photo of the front and back and we can set the collection date.

Soybeans and potted plants

Grain and nursery trucks around Franklin County

Around Urbancrest, Franklin County had 372 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, and soybeans, corn and potted flowering plants top its list. A grain truck that runs soybeans to an elevator or a box truck carrying potted plants to garden centres is one we can take off a farm lane as easily as a city lot.

Farm trucks are sometimes titled to a family member or a farm business, so check whose name is printed on the title before calling. Whoever is named there signs it over at collection.

The questions we get asked in Urbancrest

  • Will you take an aggregate dump truck from the HAZMAG or Columbus Limestone pits?HAZMAG #1 and Columbus Limestone, both under four miles east of town on Mine Safety and Health Administration records, keep aggregate haulers busy, and we buy those dump trucks. Text us the VIN with bed and cab photos and the lot where the truck parks.
  • An Urbancrest seller has lost the title. Which counter reissues it?The Franklin County Clerk of Courts Title Office on West Broad Street in Columbus, about 3.8 miles away by the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles office list, issues titles for that agency. Urbancrest owners who once financed the truck should take the bank’s lien release to that Franklin County counter along with ID.
  • Can you collect a truck parked at a Columbus rail yard?PARSONS, BUCKEYE and the Buckeye Yard intermodal ramp all sit between six and about seven miles from Urbancrest, and we can arrange pickup at any of them. Tell us the gate rules before we schedule.
  • I pull fuel from the COLUMBUS EAST rack near Urbancrest. Would you buy my tanker?COLUMBUS EAST and COLUMBUS SOUTH, two petroleum product terminals the Energy Information Administration lists just north of Urbancrest, are served by tankers like yours, and we buy them. Have the tractor title and tank test papers ready.
