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

Decatur, in Wise County, Texas, has sand pits and stone quarries off its western side and the Alliance rail yard to the south-east, and its dump trucks, cattle haulers and freight tractors work between them.

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

End-dumps between the sand plants and stone quarries

Wildcatter Sand Chico LLC sits 6.3 miles north-west of town and Paradise Plant 1390 sits 7.8 miles south-west, both listed as sand and gravel operations by the Mine Safety and Health Administration. A dump truck or end-dump tractor that has hauled from either pit can be collected from the yard where it parks between loads; give us that address and the gate hours when you get in touch.

Bridgeport Stone Plant and Chico Quarry, two crushed-stone quarries on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s register, both lie 9.8 miles west, with the ALVORD industrial-mineral mine 12.8 miles north-west. If your truck worked one of those sites, photograph the bed, the hoist and the VIN plate so we see the whole unit before we arrive at the quarry road or your shop.

Hauling to the rail at Alliance

Wise County tractors bound for rail head 20.7 miles south-east to the ALLIANCE yard, a distance taken from the North American Rail Network that the Federal Railroad Administration maintains with the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. Day cabs that shuttle between Wise County and that yard are trucks we buy, and we can pick one up at the yard lot or back home in Decatur, whichever is easier for you.

A rail intermodal ramp at Alliance, TX appears 20.9 miles south-east in Bureau of Transportation Statistics listings. For a tractor that has pulled containers off that ramp, send the VIN, the registration card and a shot of the odometer, and tell us whether a chassis goes with the sale or stays behind.

Feed, freight and heavy-haul outfits in town

Of the 265 Decatur carriers active in FMCSA’s census, 196 keep their loads inside Texas, 68 cross state lines and 107 are private fleets moving a farm’s or contractor’s own goods. A farm, contractor or feed business that owns one truck sells it to us the same way a for-hire outfit does, with the title in the owner’s name and a signature from whoever can sign for the business.

General freight is the cargo listed by 131 of those carriers, with machinery and large objects at 61, farm supplies at 37 and grain, feed and hay at 36, according to the federal carrier census. Lowboys, flatbeds, hopper-bottom tractors and grain trucks are all part of that mix, and each one is a truck we will look at.

Decatur added 16 fresh carriers to the FMCSA census during 2024, then 21 more through 2025. The three biggest local fleets in FMCSA’s census run 27, 19 and 18 power units, so a seller here could be clearing one tractor or several; list every unit with its VIN and we will plan the pickups together.

Local radius versus over-the-road mileage

Carrier filings with FMCSA count 2,359 drivers working within 100 miles of home and 5,844 going beyond it. A truck from the second group may be parked out of state on the day you call, so tell us where it actually sits; we collect from that spot rather than asking you to bring it back to Decatur.

A median of 33,167 miles a year per truck is what 98 Decatur carriers reported to FMCSA. Have the current odometer reading and any service log on hand so the paperwork matches the truck we load.

What the inspection stops found on Decatur rigs

FMCSA roadside inspection records list 246 Decatur-based trucks checked between September 2024 and August 2026, with a median model year of 2015. Those same inspection records show 56.1 percent were ten or more model years old, and trucks from across that range are ones we buy.

Whatever the model year, keep the inspection report from one of those stops with the truck. Put it with the title, the registration and your photos, and we can match the inspection paperwork to the VIN in one look.

The questions we get asked in Decatur

  • Will you come out to a quarry or pit near Chico or Bridgeport?Chico Quarry and Bridgeport Stone Plant are 9.8 miles west of Decatur on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list, and we collect from yards like those as long as the site lets us in. Name the quarry contact who opens the gate and we will phone ahead.
  • My truck is out on a long haul from Decatur right now; can you collect it where it is?FMCSA filings show 5,844 Decatur-area drivers working beyond 100 miles from home, so a truck away from Wise County is normal. Send the lot or truck-stop address where it sits and our pickup goes to that spot instead of Wise County.
  • What should I have ready before you arrive?With 196 of the 265 carriers on FMCSA’s census running intrastate in Texas, most trucks here carry Texas titles and registration. Have the title, the registration, the keys and any inspection or service records together on the day.
  • Do you buy grain and livestock trucks?Grain, feed and hay is cargo for 36 local carriers in FMCSA’s census, and Wise County’s top farm product in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture is cattle. Grain trucks, hopper tractors and cattle haulers are all ones we buy.
