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

Manufacturing accounts for 428 of Fannett’s 783 jobs in 2023, just over half at 54.7 percent, by the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts. A tractor or straight truck that has run between Fannett and plant gates around Beaumont is the kind we buy, and it helps to tell us which sites it served and keep any gate passes or site safety records with the cab.

Construction holds 96 of those Fannett jobs, or 12.3 percent, according to the same LEHD job counts from the Census Bureau. Dump trucks, flatbeds and equipment haulers that worked those crews are welcome; send photos of the bed or deck, the frame and the cab, along with the VIN and a note on which body is mounted.

Whichever of these trades your truck worked, it can stay where it is parked in Fannett, at a yard off the highway or at a job site. Give us the address and the name of whoever holds the keys, and we arrange the collection with that person.

The Energy Information Administration lists a petroleum product terminal named Fannett about 11.6 miles east of town, and the Beaumont Blending Terminal 11.5 miles to the north-east. If your tractor pulled tank trailers into either, tell us which trailer types it hooked to and whether the fifth wheel was changed, and include the most recent annual inspection report with your photos.

Beaumont I, a liquid bulk terminal 12.6 miles north-east, appears in the Bureau of Transportation Statistics’ list of port facilities. A day cab parked inside a terminal fence can be collected there, provided you tell us whose lot it is and who can sign us in at the gate.

Eleven miles north-east of Fannett, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics records Beaumont as a port, and at 13.9 miles it also lists Beaumont as a strategic seaport. Container chassis pullers and flatbed tractors that cleared those gates are part of what we purchase, and a photo of the door sticker with the VIN saves a round of questions.

At the same 13.9 miles sits the Port of Beaumont’s Harbor Island Marine Terminal, which the Bureau of Transportation Statistics classes as a roll-on/roll-off terminal. Lowboys and heavy-haul tractors that moved rolling cargo off that wharf are trucks we take; list the axle configuration and any permits it ran under so we can match the tractor to the right trailer for pickup.

Drive 10.5 miles north from Fannett and you reach the Amelia yard, which the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics carry on their North American Rail Network. Trucks that drayed freight between the yard and local shippers often sit near the tracks between runs, and we can meet the truck where it sits rather than asking you to move it.

Sunnyside, a second yard 11.9 miles to the north-east, also appears on the North American Rail Network. If your truck is parked by either yard, send a pin or a cross-street along with the registration card, so the driver who comes out knows the exact spot and the plate to look for.

Around Fannett, Jefferson County counts 612 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, and cattle, rice and honey lead its farm products. Grain trucks that hauled rice from the fields, cattle haulers and stake-bed trucks used around hives all fit what we buy.

A farm truck that has sat in a barn since harvest is fine to leave there. Tell us the gravel road or gate to use, whether the ground is firm after rain, and whether the title is in your name or in the farm’s name, so the paperwork matches the person who signs.

Titles in Texas are handled by the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles through county tax assessor-collector offices, and for Fannett that is the Jefferson County Tax Office at 1149 Pearl St, Beaumont, 77701, about 13.8 miles away. A Fannett owner whose title has gone missing asks that Beaumont counter for a certified copy ahead of the sale.

Bring your photo ID and the VIN when you visit Pearl Street, and if a lender once held the truck, bring the lien release too. Once the replacement title is in hand, send us a photo of the front, and we can move ahead with the pickup.
