Vandalia sits in Montgomery County just north of Dayton, with a crushed-stone quarry at Huber Heights to the east and the NEEDMORE rail yard to the south, and its trucks haul stone, gravel and general freight around both.

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

Dump bodies between Troy Gravel and the Huber Heights face

The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists a crushed-stone quarry at Huber Heights, 2.2 miles east of Vandalia, and the Phillips Vandalia Plant, a sand and gravel operation 5.8 miles west. A dump truck or tractor that loads at either site is one we buy. If yours is parked at a pit rather than at home, give us the site name and who controls the gate so the pickup can be planned with them.

Troy Gravel, a sand and gravel operation 9.7 miles north, also appears in Mine Safety and Health Administration records. Aggregate trucks from that side of the county are collected where they sit. Have the title and current registration together, and send photos of the body, the frame and the cab so we can see the whole truck before we talk.

Tractors off NEEDMORE and the Dayton tank farms

Two rail yards show up on the North American Rail Network south of town: NEEDMORE at 4.5 miles and the Dayton yard at 7.8 miles. Day cabs that shuttle freight off those yards are on the list of trucks we purchase. Tell us which yard the tractor worked and send the VIN first, since every other question starts from it.

Petroleum product terminals at Dayton, 6.5 miles south, are recorded by the Energy Information Administration. If your tractor pulled tank trailers in and out of them, keep any terminal or inspection paperwork with the title. Those records go with the truck and tell us where it has worked.

Freight, machinery and paper hauled from Vandalia

FMCSA’s carrier census lists 63 active carriers in Vandalia, Montgomery County, and dry vans of general freight account for 35 of them. The same census shows 11 hauling machinery and large objects, 9 carrying paper products and 7 moving household goods. Whatever trailer your tractor pulled, tell us the cargo it carried and we will ask about the rest.

Of those carriers, the federal census counts 38 running interstate, 23 intrastate and 21 private fleets. A private-fleet truck often carries the owner company’s name on the door; that is fine, just let us know who holds the title so the right person signs.

By FMCSA’s figures, three local operations run 342, 202 and 86 power units, and two new carriers registered in 2025 after three in 2024. A fleet manager selling several units at once can send one list of VINs and parking locations, and we work through them together.

Drivers, distances and miles

Carriers here report 236 drivers working within 100 miles and 786 beyond it, according to the FMCSA census. A long-haul sleeper may be out on the road when you decide to sell; tell us where it will be parked next and we arrange collection there.

A Vandalia truck logs a median 24,444 miles a year across the 31 carriers that report mileage to FMCSA. Write the current odometer reading down when you contact us, alongside the VIN, so the details we start with are exact.

What Ohio roadside inspectors wrote down about Vandalia rigs

Across 238 Vandalia-based trucks pulled in for checks from September 2024 to August 2026, the median model year on the sheet was 2021, going by FMCSA roadside inspection records. Those inspection records put 9.66 percent of them at ten or more years old. Whatever the model year of yours, the title and registration are what we need first.

If your truck went through one of those roadside inspections, keep the report. Inspection sheets and service records sit well beside the photos and give a clear account of the truck’s history without any extra work on your side.

Plant shifts, site crews and soybean rows near Vandalia

Manufacturing holds 2,795 of Vandalia’s 12,288 jobs in the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for 2023, beside 1,453 in transportation and warehousing, 1,078 in wholesale trade and 475 in construction. Box trucks, straight trucks and tractors that serve those employers all fit what we buy, from a single unit to several.

For builders with a dump or flatbed, County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau shows 26 construction businesses in Vandalia, alongside 4 in warehousing. A contractor’s dump or flatbed parked at a job site can stay there; send the address and a contact on site.

Across Montgomery County, USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 789 farms, with corn, soybeans and cattle at the top. Grain trucks and livestock haulers kept on a farm are collected from the farm, so have the title ready in the owner’s name.

Bridges and the base to the south-east

Only one of Vandalia’s 19 bridges carries a load posting, and none clears less than 14 feet, per the National Bridge Inventory. Tell us where the truck sits and which road reaches it, so the collection truck comes in by the right approach.

Wright-Patterson Air Force Base lies 8.6 miles south-east of town on Bureau of Transportation Statistics listings. If your truck is kept near the base or anywhere else nearby, we come to it; give us the parking address and the hours someone can meet us.
