Car carriers and towaway rigs out of West Portsmouth

Of the 25 active trucking companies FMCSA’s carrier census places in West Portsmouth, 12 list motor vehicles as cargo and 6 list driveaway or towaway work. If you run a car-hauler tractor or a wedge rig, send the VIN, a photo of the headrack and ramps, and a shot of the cab, and tell us whether the trailer goes with the tractor or stays behind.

General freight shows up on 8 of those same registrations in the federal census, and logs, poles, beams and lumber on 4. A log truck and a van tractor parked in a driveway are both trucks we collect, so tell us which kind you have and where it sits today.

Owner-operators and two- or three-truck yards

The three biggest operations on file with FMCSA here run 9, 5 and 3 power units, each with a matching number of drivers. For an operation that small, the title in your name and a current registration card are the two papers to find first.

Two trucking companies registered with FMCSA in West Portsmouth during 2025, matching the pair that signed up in 2024. If your authority is that recent and the truck is still on a lender’s note, have the lienholder’s name and the account details ready; the lien release has to travel with the title before we can collect.

Local routes, interstate lanes and short annual miles

Ten local carriers hold interstate authority and 15 work intrastate only, according to the federal carrier census, and 10 run private fleets hauling their own goods. A private-fleet truck often comes with a company’s own service log; if yours does, photograph the last few entries and send them along with the VIN.

Across the 10 carriers reporting mileage to FMCSA, the median truck covers 14,894 miles a year, and that census splits drivers almost evenly, 24 staying within 100 miles and 26 going past it. Wherever your truck finishes its last trip, at home, in a yard or at a shipper, give us that address and we plan the pickup there.

Dump trucks and mixers near Tow Path and Plum Run

Tow Path Ready Mix, a sand and gravel operation the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists 9.2 miles north, and BCE Materials Inc, 10.7 miles east, both draw dump trucks and mixers. If yours hauls from either pit, send a photo of the bed or drum, the hoist and the axle tags with your first message.

Further out, PLUM RUN STONE is a crushed-stone quarry 21.7 miles north-west on the MSHA mine register. Tri-axle and quad-axle dumps parked at a quarry gate can be collected there, so tell us the gate hours and whether the site needs a visitor sign-in.

The Portsmouth rail yard and local contractors

East of town, 4.7 miles out, the North American Rail Network maps the PORTSMOUTH rail yard. Trucks that shuttle loads to and from a rail yard are often day cabs; if yours is, note whether it carries a fifth wheel slider or a fixed plate, and include a door-jamb photo showing the build date.

County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau records 12 construction establishments for this area, and LEHD job counts put 210 jobs here in 2023. Contractors with a single flatbed, stake truck or roll-off can sell it on its own; we need the title, the keys and the VIN to start.

A duplicate title from the 7th Street clerk in Portsmouth

Titles in Ohio are issued by the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles through County Clerk of Courts title offices. For West Portsmouth that is the Scioto County Clerk of Courts Title Office at 602 7Th Street Room 210, Portsmouth, 45662, which the Ohio BMV’s office search places 2.9 miles from town.

Bring your photo ID and the truck’s VIN to that clerk’s counter if the original title is missing, and ask for a duplicate in the owner’s name. Once the replacement is in hand, send a photo of the front so we can match the name and VIN before collection.

Grain and horse hauling across Scioto farmland

Soybeans, corn and equine lead the 585 farms that USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts in Scioto County. Grain trucks with hoists and tractors that pull horse or livestock trailers come off farms like these, and we take them as well as over-the-road units.

A farm truck plated in the farm’s name needs the title signed by whoever is listed on it, so check whether that is you, a spouse or a family partnership before you call. Photos of the bed, the hoist and the plate help us confirm the setup.
