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

Escobares sits on the Rio Grande side of the Valley, where ranch country, sorghum and corn fields and the gravel pits off the river road keep dump trucks, stock haulers and grain trucks on the move.

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

Lopez Ready Mix Pit, just up the road

Drive 8.7 miles east of Escobares and you reach Lopez Ready Mix Pit, a sand and gravel operation on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list. A dump truck or end-dump tractor that hauls aggregate out of a pit that close often never leaves the local roads, so tell us whether it is parked at the pit, at a yard or at your house before we set up the pickup.

Ready-mix and gravel work puts tandem dumps, mixers and belly-dump tractors on these routes. When you reach out from Escobares, give us the VIN, the make and model, and the body type mounted on the chassis, and send photos of the bed or drum along with the cab so the truck we arrive for matches the one you described.

Down toward the river

Alto Bonito Gravel Pit, toward the river

Further out, Alto Bonito Gravel Pit sits 21.5 miles south-east of town, according to the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s mine records. If your truck works between Alto Bonito and job sites around Escobares, it may be sitting at either end when you decide to sell; we come to wherever it is, so give us that address and say whether a tow truck can reach it.

Pit trucks along this stretch tend to carry operator logs and scale tickets. Those do not have to come with the sale, but any service records you kept, plus the current registration, help us understand what the truck has been doing for you.

Herds and harvests

Cattle, sorghum and corn around Escobares

Around Escobares, cattle lead the farm list, followed by sorghum and corn, and USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 1,126 farms across Starr County. Stock trailers, cattle pots and the tractors that pull them are trucks we buy, and so are the straight trucks used on ranches for feed and water.

Grain from sorghum and corn harvests moves in hopper-bottom trailers and farm grain trucks. If yours spends the off-season parked in a barn or out in a pasture, a set of photos and the location are enough for us to start, and we will plan the collection around the gate and the ground it stands on.

Rio Grande City

Replacement titles from the Rio Grande City tax office

In Texas the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles handles titles through county tax assessor-collector offices, and for Escobares that office is the Starr County Tax Office at 100 N FM 3167, Suite 201, Rio Grande City, 78582, which the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles places 6.7 miles from town. A seller missing a title can request a copy there before the sale.

Bring photo identification and the truck’s VIN to the tax office counter when you apply. If a lender still holds a lien on the truck, ask for the release at the same time, since the title we take has to be free of it.

Pickup day

What to have on the seat for an Escobares pickup

Lay the signed title, the registration card and the keys together in the cab. Add any service or inspection records you kept, whether the truck hauled gravel near Lopez Ready Mix Pit or hauled cattle off a ranch, so the driver can confirm the VIN against your papers at the truck.

Tell us at the start if the truck carries a dump body, a mixer drum or a fifth wheel, and whether a trailer goes with it. Each of those changes the equipment we bring to Escobares, and knowing up front keeps the visit to one trip.
