A gravel pit just north-east of Eidson Road
Alamo Con Prod Eagle Pass S & G digs sand and gravel just 0.9 miles north-east of Eidson Road, according to the Mine Safety and Health Administration. Dump trucks, end dumps and belly-dump tractors that load at a pit that close are exactly what we pick up. If yours is parked at the pit gate rather than at home, send the gate location with your first message so the driver goes straight there.
Before we talk, photograph the bed, the hoist and the tailgate along with the cab, and note the body length in feet. Gravel haulers in this corner of Maverick County come in many body styles, and the pictures settle which one you have without a second round of questions.
North on the pit road
D & D Pit and Eagle Aggregate up the road
Seven point three miles north, by the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s listing, D & D Pit works crushed stone, and Eagle Aggregate LLC runs a sand and gravel operation 10.4 miles north on the same federal record. A tractor or dump truck that cycles between these two sites and the Eidson Road yards is a straightforward collection for us.
Tell us which of the three pits the truck loads at most often. When it is parked on a quarry floor, check with the site office that a visitor may enter. Give us a contact name there, and we will call that person ahead of the pickup.
The Eagle Pass rail yard, two miles out
Two miles to the north-west, the North American Rail Network maintained by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics places the EAGLE PASS rail yard. Day cabs and yard tractors that shuttle loads to and from the tracks there fit what we collect, as do the box trucks that run freight the last few miles.
For a rail-yard tractor, have the VIN, the registration and any annual inspection report together in one folder. If the unit never leaves the yard and carries no plates, say that plainly; we will ask what paperwork it does have and plan the pickup from inside the yard fence.
Goats, cotton and horses in Maverick County
USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 234 farms in Maverick County, with goats, cotton and equine listed as the leading categories. Stock trailers’ tow rigs, cotton module haulers and flatbeds that carry hay or feed out to those operations all belong on the list of trucks we take.
A farm truck is often titled to the ranch rather than to a person. Check whose name sits on the Texas title before you call, and if it is a family partnership or a business, have whoever signs for it ready to sign at pickup. Photos taken where the truck stands on the property help us plan the route in.
Work trucks behind Eidson Road’s 2,172 LEHD-counted jobs
Census Bureau LEHD job counts (LODES) put 2,172 jobs in Eidson Road in 2023. Service trucks, delivery vans and work pickups with commercial plates that support those jobs are welcome here too, from a single unit to several from one shop.
If you are selling more than one vehicle from the same lot, list them in one message with each VIN and where each one is parked. We can then plan a single trip to the lot instead of returning for each unit separately.
Papers to gather before an Eidson Road pickup
Gather the Texas title, current registration, any inspection or service records and a set of clear photos of the cab, chassis and tires. Whether the truck sits beside the gravel pit, near the rail yard or out on a Maverick County farm, those four items answer most of what we ask.
If the Texas title has gone missing, tell us at the very start rather than at pickup. The state’s title agency issues replacements, and knowing early lets us explain which form fits a truck registered to a person, a ranch or a company.
