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

Wolf Creek, which the Mine Safety and Health Administration records as a sand and gravel operation, lies 6.2 miles up the road north of Bonham’s town centre. Dump trucks and end-dump tractors that load there spend their days on short county runs, so if yours is parked at the pit or a yard near it, give us the address and the name of whoever holds the gate key.

Another sand and gravel site, RED RIVER Plant # 1, sits 9.4 miles to the north-west on Mine Safety and Health Administration records. A truck that has hauled from either pit can be collected where it stands; send photos of the bed, the hoist, the cab and the tires so we know what we are loading before we arrive.

Cattle lead wheat and corn across the 2,108 Fannin County farms that USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture tallies around Bonham. Grain trucks, cattle haulers and flatbeds that move hay bales between pastures are the kind of equipment a farm around Bonham tends to keep, and we buy them straight from the barn lot.

Among the 70 active carriers that FMCSA’s carrier census places in Bonham, 16 haul grain, feed and hay and another 16 carry farm supplies. If your truck is one of those working pieces, have the title in the name on the registration and tell us which field gate or shed it is behind.

General freight is the cargo listed by 39 Bonham carriers in FMCSA’s carrier census, and 18 move machinery and large objects. Lowboys, step decks and heavy tractors from that second group often sit at a job site rather than at home, so tell us where the truck is today, not where the company is based.

Most outfits here stay inside Texas: 47 carriers register as intrastate against 22 interstate, and 31 run private fleets that haul their own goods, per the FMCSA carrier census. A private-fleet truck sold by a farm or a manufacturer needs the same title and registration as a for-hire rig, plus whoever at the business signs for it.

Drivers listed with Bonham carriers break down as 194 who work within 100 miles and 68 who travel beyond it, according to FMCSA’s census. The same FMCSA census puts the median truck at 20,500 miles a year across 14 carriers reporting mileage; have the current odometer reading ready when you call.

The three biggest fleets on FMCSA’s carrier census in Bonham run 86, 55 and 24 power units, the first with 86 drivers on its roster. If you are clearing several tractors at once, send a list with each VIN and where each one is parked, and we will plan one collection around the whole group.

New authority keeps arriving too: FMCSA’s carrier census shows 7 new Bonham carriers in 2024 and 6 in 2025. An owner-operator who started in either year and is now stepping away can sell the single truck the same way a large fleet sells twenty.

Between August 2024 and August 2026, 88 trucks from Bonham carriers came through FMCSA roadside inspection records; their median model year is 2018, and 32.95 percent carry a model year ten or more years back. Whatever the year on your title, include any inspection reports you kept; they travel with the truck when it changes hands.

The National Bridge Inventory lists 45 bridges in and around Bonham, none load-posted and none under 14 feet of clearance. A loaded tractor-trailer can be driven or towed out of town without a low-clearance detour, which keeps pickup planning simple on our side.

The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts put 4,902 jobs in Bonham for 2023, and 692 of them, 14.1 percent, are in manufacturing. Box trucks and tractors that serve local plants are often titled to the business, so have a company officer’s signature lined up before we schedule the visit.

County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau show 19 construction establishments, while LEHD counts 54 construction jobs and 75 in wholesale trade. Contractors selling a dump truck, water truck or service body can leave it on the job site; we collect from there.

Freight that leaves by rail goes west to Sherman, where the North American Rail Network shows the SHERMAN (BNSF) yard 24 miles away and a second SHERMAN yard at 24.2 miles. If your day cab shuttles to those yards and is parked over there, we pick it up in Sherman rather than asking you to bring it back to Bonham.

• My dump truck stays at Wolf Creek or the Red River plant above Bonham; does it have to come into town first?Wolf Creek is 6.2 miles north of town and RED RIVER Plant # 1 is 9.4 miles north-west, per the Mine Safety and Health Administration, and we collect from either. Name the pit foreman or yard hand who can open up for our driver.
• Do you buy grain trucks and cattle haulers from Fannin County farms?Fannin County has 2,108 farms on USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, led by cattle, wheat and corn, and their grain trucks, cattle-hauling tractors and hay flatbeds are all trucks we purchase. Photos of the bed and cab plus the VIN off the door jamb get a Fannin County farm truck moving.
• What paperwork should a Bonham business have ready to sell a company truck?Thirty-one Bonham carriers run private fleets under FMCSA’s carrier census, and a company-titled truck needs the title, current registration and a signature from someone authorised to sell for the business. Keep any inspection or service records with it.
• My truck sits at the rail yard in Sherman. Can Big Ugly Truck collect it in Sherman?Sherman’s BNSF yard is 24 miles west of Bonham on the North American Rail Network, and we collect trucks parked there. Pass along the Sherman lot address and who answers the phone there.
