Two fuel racks within six miles of Colleyville
The Energy Information Administration places the SOUTHLAKE TX petroleum product terminal 2.5 miles north-east of Colleyville and the FT WORTH terminal 5.9 miles south-east. If your tractor has loaded fuel at either rack, write down which one and roughly how often, and send that list along with the VIN when you get in touch.
A tank truck parked near one of these terminals can stay put while you sell it. Give us the street address of the lot, the name of whoever holds the gate key, and a couple of clear photos of the tank barrel, the cab and the plate, and we plan the collection around that spot.
Bulk and rail
Liquid bulk sites and rail yards to the south-east
Two liquid bulk terminals appear in Bureau of Transportation Statistics listings for this corner of Tarrant County: Kinder Morgan at 6.7 miles south-east of town and Carry Transit at 11.2 miles in the same direction. Tractors that shuttle tankers between those two sites can be picked up wherever they last parked, so tell us which terminal yard holds yours.
Rail yards sit close by as well. According to the North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration with the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, TREX STATION is 9.1 miles south-east and HODGE is 11.2 miles south-west. A day cab that has worked drayage at either yard sells the same way as any other: title in hand, registration current, and a photo of the odometer.
Further out, the Alliance, TX intermodal ramp lies 13.7 miles north-west by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics’ reckoning, and the NG Saginaw installation is 11.9 miles west. If your container chassis or tractor is sitting up near Alliance, that location is fine; send us the gate details and the unit number.
Freight, machinery and movers registered off Colleyville streets
Half of Colleyville’s 48 active carriers, 24 in all, declare general freight to FMCSA’s carrier census, while 10 declare machinery and large objects. Box trucks, straight trucks and flatbed tractors are the equipment those two cargo classes call for, and we buy each of them from owners here.
Six local carriers in that same federal census move passengers and four move household goods, so buses, shuttle vans and moving vans are part of the mix too. For a moving van, note the box length and liftgate model; for a bus, the seat count and the registration class.
Among those 48, the federal carrier census shows 38 operating intrastate only, 9 crossing state lines, and 20 running as private fleets that haul their own goods. If your truck carried freight for your own business, its title and registration are all we need; no operating authority paperwork is involved.
Colleyville fleets of six, fourteen and twenty-five units
The biggest Colleyville fleet on FMCSA’s census runs 25 power units with 44 drivers, the next 14 units with 16 drivers, and the third 6 units with 6 drivers. Selling several units from a fleet that size works best when you send one list with every VIN, the title holder for each, and where each unit is parked.
Newly registered carriers keep appearing too: FMCSA records 6 new Colleyville carriers in 2025 and 4 in 2024. If you opened your authority recently and are now selling the truck, have the title or the lienholder payoff letter ready, plus the registration in your company name.
Across 6 local carriers reporting mileage to FMCSA, the median works out to 24,702 miles per truck per year. Put the current odometer figure in your first message so the details we confirm at pickup match what you sent.
Builders, plants and Tarrant County cattle and wheat
Of the 9,576 jobs the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts place in Colleyville for 2023, construction accounts for 454, manufacturing 327, transportation and warehousing 208, and wholesale trade 195. Dump trucks, stake beds and service bodies are the kinds of equipment construction crews here register, and each is one we purchase.
For Colleyville, the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns tallies 81 construction establishments, each a possible owner of a dump truck or flatbed. If a contractor’s truck carries a crane, a dump body or a toolbox setup, include a photo of the body plate and the equipment serial numbers with your pictures of the chassis.
Tarrant County holds 1,000 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, with cattle, horses and wheat as the leading products. Livestock haulers, horse-hauling rigs and grain trucks from those operations can be collected at the farm gate; tell us which road leads in and whether a tractor-trailer can turn around there.
Roads and bridges around Colleyville for pickup
Of the 27 Colleyville bridges on the National Bridge Inventory, a single one carries a load posting, and not one drops below 14 feet of clearance. A tall box truck or a loaded flatbed can leave town without a low-clearance detour, but mention it if the truck sits on a road crossing that one posted bridge.
Tell us the exact parking spot, whether it is a driveway, a shop lot or a jobsite, and who can hand over the keys. Have the signed title, current Texas registration and any service records together, and the collection runs on the details you gave us.
