True Materials to Morgan Pit
Gravel south of Bartlett, stone to the west
True Materials, a sand and gravel operation the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists 5.6 miles south of town, is the closest pit to Bartlett. A dump truck or end-dump tractor that has hauled from there can be collected at the yard, at your house or wherever it is parked; give us the street address and a gate contact.
Brauer Pit 1 and Morgan Pit lie west of town, a crushed-stone quarry and a dimension-stone quarry, while the Mine Safety and Health Administration places the Salado Plant and Adams Ranch north-west at 11.9 and 12.3 miles. If your truck worked those quarry runs, photograph the body, the hoist and the cab, and note which sites it served so our questions start with the right equipment.
Northward, 1159 Academy is a second sand and gravel operation, 13.3 miles out in the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s records. Keep the registration and any service records from that work together with the title so the paperwork is in one place when we arrive.
Two terminals down the road in Taylor
The Energy Information Administration lists two petroleum product terminals south of Bartlett, TAYLOR at 13 miles and TAYLOR TERMINAL at 13.2 miles. A tractor that has pulled fuel tankers from either one is a truck we buy; tell us whether the trailer goes with it or stays behind.
If the tractor is parked at a terminal lot in Taylor rather than at home, ask the site who can let a driver in and pass that name to us. Send photos of the cab, the fifth wheel and the VIN plate along with the address.
Hay, corn, cattle
Bartlett carriers hauling feed and farm supplies
Twenty Bartlett outfits list grain, feed or hay as cargo and fourteen list farm supplies, out of 42 active carriers on FMCSA’s carrier census for the town. Across Williamson County the USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 2,352 farms, with corn, cattle and deer the leading products. A hay hauler or grain truck parked by a barn or a field gate is fine; tell us how to reach it from the nearest county road.
General freight shows up on 15 Bartlett carrier registrations and large machinery on 8, per the same federal census. Flatbeds, lowboys and van tractors all fit what we collect, so list the trailer type alongside the truck when you send the VIN.
Private farm fleets and in-state haulers around Bartlett
FMCSA’s carrier census shows 39 Bartlett carriers running intrastate only and just 3 crossing state lines, and 22 of the 42 operate as private fleets hauling their own goods. A farm or business truck that never left Texas can be sold the same way as a for-hire rig; the title and registration are what we need.
Among drivers tied to these carriers, 57 stay within a hundred-mile radius and 27 go farther, a split recorded in the federal carrier census. FMCSA’s carrier census puts the median at 11,667 miles a truck for the ten Bartlett carriers that report mileage, so write down the odometer reading when you photograph the dash.
Fleets here are small: the federal census puts the biggest at 8 power units and 4 drivers, the next at 4 units and the third at 3. If you are selling one truck from a three- or four-truck operation, we can collect it without the rest of the fleet being moved.
Twenty-six Bartlett tractors and their model years
Twenty-six Bartlett trucks came through FMCSA roadside inspection records from April 2025 to August 2026; half were model year 2008.5 or older by the median, and roughly four in five (80.8 percent) were ten or more years old. Whatever year your truck is, give us the year, make and model with the VIN.
New registrations are few, with FMCSA’s carrier census logging 3 new Bartlett carriers in 2024 and 2 in 2025. If you started hauling recently and are now selling, have your USDOT number and the truck’s registration ready alongside the title.
Replacing a Bartlett truck title through the county
In Texas, the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles issues certified copies of titles, and its county tax assessor-collector offices handle the request. A Bartlett owner who cannot find the title can start that request before calling us, since the title is the document the sale turns on.
Bartlett itself counts 276 jobs in the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for 2023, and County Business Patterns lists 5 construction establishments. If your truck is registered to one of those businesses rather than to you, have the person who signs for the business ready to sign the title.
