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

The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists the San Miguel Lignite Mine 16.6 miles south of Jourdanton, a coal operation in the brush country below town. A tractor or end dump that has hauled from that site can be sold without moving it off the lease; give us the gate contact and the name of whoever signs you in, and we arrange the collection with them.

Sand is dug on both sides of town: FCI Sand Operations LLC sits 14.3 miles to the south-east and the Espey Pit and Plant 15.7 miles to the north, both on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s register. If your dump truck or belly-dump trailer worked either pit, photograph the bed, the hoist and the VIN plate, and note which pit it ran out of.

North-west of Jourdanton, the Bigfoot Mine is a sand and gravel operation 18 miles away, and a second industrial-mineral site named Atascosa lies 16.7 miles north, per federal mine safety records kept by MSHA. Trucks parked at a pit yard after the last load are fine where they stand; send the yard address and we plan the route in.

The Energy Information Administration places the Pleasanton petroleum product terminal 5.2 miles north-east of Jourdanton, just up the road toward the neighbouring town. Tank tractors that load there usually come home to a yard in Jourdanton or Pleasanton, and we can collect at either one.

Oilfield equipment is a listed cargo for 19 of the 76 active carriers based here, as FMCSA’s carrier census records them, and 21 haul machinery or large objects. A winch truck, gin-pole rig or lowboy tractor from that work should come with its title, current registration and any annual inspection reports you kept.

Extraction work is a quarter of the local job base here: the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts place 553 of Jourdanton’s 2,240 jobs in 2023, a 24.7 percent share, in mining, quarrying and oil and gas. If you are winding down a service contract in the field, tell us how many units are involved and where each one is parked.

Of the 76 active carriers FMCSA’s carrier census lists for Jourdanton, 63 operate intrastate and 13 cross state lines, and 36 are private fleets hauling their own goods. A private fleet selling a truck needs the same paperwork as a for-hire outfit: the title in the company’s name and someone authorised to sign it.

General freight is the most common cargo listed, at 44 carriers, while grain, feed and hay appears on 18 registrations in the FMCSA census. Day cabs, flatbeds and hopper trailers are all trucks we collect here, so describe the body and trailer when you first reach out.

Driver counts in the federal carrier census split almost evenly, with 183 drivers working within 100 miles of base and 186 going beyond it. For a sleeper that spends weeks away, pick a date it will be back in Atascosa County and we schedule around that.

One Jourdanton fleet runs 48 power units with 50 drivers, another 34 units with 46 drivers, and a third 14 units with 12 drivers, according to FMCSA’s census of registered carriers. Selling several trucks at once is handled as one job; a list of VINs, unit numbers and yard locations is the quickest way to start.

New registrations stay modest: FMCSA’s carrier census shows 4 new carriers in 2025 and 2 in 2024. If you are an owner-operator closing your authority, keep the title and your USDOT number handy so the sale paperwork lines up.

Among 12 local carriers reporting mileage, FMCSA’s census puts the median at 26,273 miles per truck per year. Have a current odometer photo ready alongside the VIN, since both go on the bill of sale.

Fifty-nine trucks run by Jourdanton carriers came through FMCSA roadside inspections from September 2024 to August 2026, and the middle of that group was a 2015 model. We buy trucks across the model years, so state the year as it appears on the title.

Just over half of those 59 inspected Jourdanton trucks, 55.9 percent in the FMCSA roadside records, carried a model year at least ten years back. Older units sell through the same steps as newer ones: the title, the registration and a set of clear photos of the cab, frame and tyres.

Atascosa County holds 1,673 farms, led by cattle, then corn, then horses, in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture. Cattle pots, grain trucks and stock trailers parked on a ranch can stay there; send the gate directions and a phone number for whoever is on site.

Construction also has a footing, with 93 jobs in the sector in 2023 per the Census Bureau’s LEHD figures and 13 construction establishments in County Business Patterns. A dump truck or flatbed used on local building work goes through the same title-and-photos process as a farm truck.

If a title has gone missing, the state’s title agency issues a replacement, and it helps to apply before we schedule a pickup. Tell us early if the title carries a lien so the release can be arranged.

• My dump truck is still at the Espey sand pit north of Jourdanton - must I haul it to a yard in town first?The Espey Pit and Plant sits 15.7 miles north of town on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list, and we collect from pit yards like it.

Bring the title and registration and tell us who can hand over the keys.

Send the VIN, an odometer photo and pictures of the body.
