Trucking outfits that call Giddings home

A town of 5,151 people, Giddings is home base to 111 active carriers on FMCSA’s carrier census. The same FMCSA census shows 94 of them running intrastate and 15 crossing state lines, which puts most of these trucks on Texas roads. Have the Texas title in the registered owner’s name before we schedule a pickup.

Fifty-five of the Giddings carriers on FMCSA’s carrier census are private fleets, hauling their own goods rather than freight for hire. If your truck belongs to a business like that, the person who signs the title needs authority to sell for the company, so check whose name the title carries before you call.

Registrations keep arriving: nine new Giddings carriers joined FMCSA’s carrier census in 2025, after six in 2024. A newly registered owner-operator selling a first truck should keep the purchase paperwork and the current registration together with the title.

Cargo declared

General freight, machinery and oilfield equipment

General freight is the cargo most Giddings carriers list, at 58 on FMCSA’s carrier census, followed by 34 hauling machinery and large objects. A lowboy tractor or a heavy-haul day cab that has moved equipment around Lee County is the kind of truck we take, so tell us the trailer setup it pulled.

Thirty carriers here declare oilfield equipment as cargo, according to FMCSA’s carrier census, and 23 list farm supplies. Winch trucks, bed trucks and flatbed tractors from that oilfield work are welcome, and so are the straight trucks that carry feed and fencing; send photos of the cab, the frame and any mounted equipment.

Mileage figures reported to FMCSA’s carrier census by 25 Giddings carriers put the median at 20,000 miles per truck a year. Read the odometer before you contact us and give us that number with the VIN; both go on the bill of sale.

South and west of town

Pits, a rail yard and Camp Swift

The Mine Safety and Health Administration places Plum Aggregate Operating Company, a sand and gravel operation, 16 miles south of Giddings, and the Smithville Plant 16.7 miles south-west. Dump trucks and end-dump tractors that load at pits like these can be collected on site if the operator allows access, so ask the pit about a gate time.

Smithville’s rail yard lies 18.4 miles south-west of town on the North American Rail Network, and an industrial-mineral mine sits 21.7 miles in the same direction per the Mine Safety and Health Administration. If your truck is parked near either, give us the street address or the nearest crossroad rather than the facility name.

NG Camp Swift, a military installation 22.5 miles west in Bureau of Transportation Statistics listings, is the other landmark on that side of the county. Trucks parked on a base or any other gated site need an escort or a pass arranged in advance, so let us know about the gate when you first reach out.

A 2020 tractor or a far older one is welcome here; copy the year, make and model off the Texas title when you write to us.

Just under 22 percent of those 160 Giddings trucks, 21.9 percent in FMCSA roadside inspection records, carried a model year ten or more years back. An older truck is just as welcome as a newer one; what helps is any service log or inspection report you kept, handed over with the keys.

Construction, ranching and the jobs behind them

Construction accounts for 1,155 of the 4,046 jobs in Giddings, 28.5 percent of the total, in the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for 2023. Mixers, dump trucks and contractor flatbeds from that work are trucks we buy, and a business seller should bring the company name exactly as it appears on the title.

If your firm is selling more than one truck, list every VIN and title together in one message so each one can be checked against Texas records at once.

Lee County has 1,720 farms, with cattle, horses and goats the top livestock in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture. Cattle haulers, stock trailer tractors and ranch flatbeds parked out in a pasture can be picked up there; just describe the gate and the ground so we bring the right equipment.

Roads, bridges and drivers

Of the 27 Giddings bridges the National Bridge Inventory lists, just one carries a load posting and not one has clearance below 14 feet. That leaves our tow and haul routes open, so tell us where the truck sits and we will plan the route in from the highway.

FMCSA’s carrier census counts 251 drivers working within 100 miles of their base for Giddings carriers and 806 beyond that range. A long-haul sleeper that is out of state when you decide to sell can still be bought; tell us the city it is parked in and the title stays in your hands until we meet.

The biggest carrier based in Giddings runs 542 power units with 651 drivers on FMCSA’s carrier census, with the next two at 31 and 29 power units. Fleets of any of those sizes can sell several trucks at once, and a fleet manager should send a list of units with VINs and title status.

  • Will you take a winch or bed truck from the Giddings oilfield crews?Thirty Giddings carriers list oilfield equipment as cargo on FMCSA’s carrier census, and their winch, bed and flatbed trucks are ones we buy. Send the VIN, the title and photos of the mounted equipment.
  • My dump truck sits at the Smithville Plant pit - can you pick it up there?The Smithville Plant sits 16.7 miles south-west of Giddings in Mine Safety and Health Administration listings, and we can collect at a pit like that when the operator grants access.

  • What if I have lost my Texas title?A truck registered among the 94 intrastate Giddings carriers on FMCSA’s carrier census will carry a Texas title, and a replacement comes from the state’s title agency. Apply for the duplicate before we schedule the pickup.
