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

Of the active carriers based in Kaufman, FMCSA’s carrier census puts 164 in intrastate work against 50 that cross state lines, with 48 running private fleets for their own goods. If your truck spent its years on in-state routes, the Texas registration and title are the two papers that matter first; keep both with the cab or in the office where you can find them.

A private fleet truck that hauled for a Kaufman shop or yard is just as welcome as a for-hire tractor. Tell us whose name is on the title, whether that is you or the business, so the signature on the transfer matches the owner of record.

Driver radius in the same federal census splits close to even: 249 drivers work within 100 miles of home and 218 go beyond it. For a tractor that works the longer routes, let us know the date it returns to Kaufman and we will book the collection for then.

General freight is the cargo listed by 130 Kaufman carriers in FMCSA’s census, which means plenty of dry vans and the tractors that pull them. Photos of the cab, the VIN plate and the odometer are the useful start for a van tractor.

FMCSA’s census also shows 31 local carriers listing machinery and large objects, 30 listing metal sheets, coils and rolls, and 27 listing motor vehicles. Those are lowboys, flatbeds with coil racks and car carriers. If the trailer goes with the tractor, photograph it separately and send its own title or registration alongside.

Fleet sizes on file with FMCSA run up to 28 power units with 67 drivers for the biggest Kaufman operation, then 16 units and 14 units below it. Selling several trucks from one yard is one conversation: send a list of VINs and where each one is parked.

Roadside inspectors stopped 138 trucks belonging to Kaufman carriers from October 2024 to August 2026, and FMCSA’s records of those stops give a median model year of 2014, with 64.5% at ten years or older. Give us the year, make and model off the title, and the engine details from the door tag or the valve cover, so we know which tractor we are talking about.

Across 68 carriers reporting mileage, the federal census shows a median of 38,786 miles per truck each year. Read the odometer before you call and include it in your photos; service records, if you kept them, show what the truck has done since it came to you.

Two sand and gravel operations on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list, Cottonwood Plant 1204 and Rosser Sand & Gravel, sit about 11.4 miles south-west of Kaufman. Dump trucks and end dumps working those pits can be collected from the plant lot if the operator allows it; give us a contact who can let us in.

North-east, the Wills Point Lester Plant 1655 crushed-stone quarry is 18.1 miles out, and Patriot Mining and Materials, an industrial-mineral mine, lies 22.5 miles south, both listed by MSHA. A truck parked at either site can be collected at that site; name it when you get in touch.

To the west, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics places the Dallas Intermodal Terminal ramp at Wilmer 22 miles away and the Mesquite ramp 23.9 miles north-west. Day cabs that dray containers between those ramps and Kaufman County are trucks we buy; the VIN and a note on which ramp it served are enough to begin.

In 2023 the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts placed 360 Kaufman jobs in manufacturing out of 4,299 in total, beside 203 in construction and 77 in transportation and warehousing. A box truck or straight truck from a local plant or contractor is a seller’s truck like any other; registration and title in hand covers most of it.

The Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns puts the count of construction establishments in Kaufman at 57, each one a possible seller of a dump truck, mixer or flatbed kept in Kaufman. Contractors selling a dump truck, mixer or flatbed from a job yard can leave it where it sits; tell us the yard address and the hours someone is there.

Kaufman County had 2,478 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, led by cattle, then equine and deer operations. Livestock haulers and farm trucks parked out on a property are collected from the property; a gate code or a phone number for whoever is on site saves a wasted trip.

Only one of Kaufman’s 40 bridges carries a load posting, and none sits under 14 feet, on the Federal Highway Administration’s National Bridge Inventory. Tell us the exact address where the truck sits and how a tow or a driver reaches it, so the route in is settled before anyone sets out.

If the truck is not at your home, give the name of the lot or yard and who holds the keys. Anything you have to send ahead, such as title, registration and photos, can go by text or email.

• My truck is parked at a gravel plant south-west of Kaufman. Does the plant lot work as a pickup spot?Cottonwood Plant 1204 and Rosser Sand & Gravel, both on MSHA’s list about 11.4 miles south-west of town, are places we collect from directly. Give us the plant name and a site contact who can open the gate.
• I run a small in-state fleet out of Kaufman. Will you take the whole Kaufman fleet at once?FMCSA’s carrier census shows 164 intrastate carriers in Kaufman, and fleets that size sell to us as a group. Send each VIN, the title holder and where each truck is parked.
• My tractor hauls containers off the Wilmer ramp. Will you collect it at the Wilmer ramp rather than in Kaufman?The Dallas Intermodal Terminal ramp at Wilmer is 22 miles west of Kaufman by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics’ figures, and we can collect there or wherever the tractor is parked. Tell us the location and who can hand over the keys.
