Brackettville sits between two crushed-stone quarries and the air base at Del Rio, and the trucks registered here haul stone, cattle feed, livestock and general freight across a wide stretch of the Kinney County ranch country.

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

Stone pit, air base

From Bader Pit out to the Laughlin gate

Bader Pit, a crushed-stone quarry on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list, lies only three and a half miles west of Brackettville. A dump truck or tractor that has been hauling rock out of that pit is probably parked at the quarry or at a yard close to it, so give us the gate or yard address when you get in touch and we will collect it from there.

Further along the same western heading, Laughlin AFB is listed by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics as a military installation about 20.8 miles out. If your truck has delivered to the base or works out of a yard on that side of the county, tell us where it sits now and who holds the keys, and send a few clear photos of the cab, the frame and the plates.

Second quarry

Black Spur Quarry on the eastern side

The Mine Safety and Health Administration also lists Black Spur Quarry, another crushed-stone operation, roughly 24.5 miles east of Brackettville. Stone haulers from that end of the county can stay where they are; we pick up on site, and a note on whether the truck can be reached on a paved road helps us plan the collection.

With quarries on either side of Brackettville, a seller here may own a dump body, a belly-dump trailer or a heavy tractor that has split its time between both sites. List the body or trailer that goes with the truck, the VIN, and the odometer reading, and say whether the trailer is part of the sale.

Fifteen outfits, most of them staying inside Texas

Of the 15 active Brackettville carriers in FMCSA’s carrier census, a dozen keep to Texas roads, three hold interstate authority, and five haul only their own goods as private fleets. A rancher’s private truck and a for-hire tractor are both welcome here, and the paperwork we ask for is the same: the title, the current registration and any service records you kept.

In FMCSA’s carrier census, general freight is the cargo most often listed, by 10 of those carriers, followed by machinery and large objects at 6, grain, feed and hay at 5, and livestock at 4. Tell us which of these your truck pulled and which trailer it pulled it on, whether a lowboy, a flatbed, a hopper or a stock trailer.

One local operation registered with FMCSA runs 48 power units and 70 drivers, while the next two run 5 and 3 trucks. Whether you are selling one pickup-and-gooseneck rig or several tractors out of a larger yard, send the list of units with their VINs, and we will go through each one with you.

Odometer miles

Brackettville drivers who range far

Across the 6 Brackettville carriers that reported mileage to FMCSA’s carrier census, the median truck covers 26,100 miles a year. Have the current odometer reading and the engine hours, if your truck records them, ready when you call, since those two figures are the first things we ask about.

The same federal census records 85 drivers here working beyond a 100-mile radius and 11 working inside it. A truck that spends its weeks on the long routes out of Brackettville may be parked far from town when you decide to sell, so tell us the city and yard where it is now rather than where it is registered.

FMCSA’s carrier census shows one new Brackettville carrier added in 2024 and one more in 2025. If you started a small operation in either year and are now selling the truck, the title should already be in your name or your company’s; check that before we schedule the pickup.

Goats, cattle, bees

Cattle, goats and honey on the ranches

Kinney County holds 190 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, and cattle, goats and honey lead the products listed there. Livestock trailers, feed trucks and flatbeds that work those ranches around Brackettville are part of what we buy, and they are usually collected straight from the ranch gate.

When the truck lives on a ranch, give us directions to the barn or pasture where it is kept and a phone number for whoever will be there. Send photos of the truck in daylight, with the VIN plate visible, along with the address.

Jobs and posted spans

One job in five moves goods

In 2023 the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts placed 392 jobs in Brackettville, with transportation and warehousing holding 83 of them, a 21.2 percent share. Tell us the days of the week the truck is home in Brackettville, and we will arrange the collection for one of them.

The National Bridge Inventory lists 7 bridges in the Brackettville area; 2 of them carry posted load limits, and none has a clearance below fourteen feet. Let us know the gross weight of the loaded truck or trailer we would be moving so the route to and from your yard can be checked against those posted structures.

A missing title and the tax assessor-collector

Texas titles are issued by the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles, and a certified copy of a lost one is requested through the county tax assessor-collector offices the department works with. If the title for your truck is missing, start that request before you contact us, and tell us it is under way so we can plan around it.

Bring the truck’s VIN, your identification and, for a company truck, proof that you can sign for the business when you apply to the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles through the county tax assessor-collector. If a lender is still listed on the title, have the lien release ready as well.

The questions we get asked in Brackettville

  • My rock truck is still parked at the Bader Pit crusher; is that a problem?Bader Pit sits three and a half miles west of town and Black Spur Quarry about 24.5 miles east, both on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list, and we collect from either site. Send the address of the yard or gate and say who can let us in.
  • Which office handles a lost Texas title for a Brackettville truck?The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles issues titles, and copies are requested through the county tax assessor-collector offices. Start that request first and tell us when it is filed.
  • Is a goat or cattle hauler off a Kinney County ranch something you take?Cattle, goats and honey lead the 190 Kinney County farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, and stock trailers and feed trucks from those ranches are part of what we buy. We pick them up at the ranch.
  • The tractor is hundreds of miles from Brackettville right now; does that matter?FMCSA’s carrier census records 85 Brackettville drivers working beyond a 100-mile radius, so this comes up often here. Tell us the city and yard where the truck is now, and we collect it there.
