Container work out of Wylie and Mesquite
The Bureau of Transportation Statistics places the Wylie, TX intermodal ramp 14.1 miles north-west of McLendon-Chisholm, and the North American Rail Network shows the WYLIE rail yard just past it at 14.2 miles. A day cab that shuttles boxes between that ramp and the Rockwall County line is the kind of tractor we collect, and it can stay parked at your house or shop while the sale is arranged.
Heading west instead, the Dallas, TX - Mesquite ramp sits 15.9 miles away on figures from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, with the DALLAS TOFC yard at 16.2 miles in the Federal Railroad Administration’s rail network. If your tractor pulled chassis off either Mesquite gate, send the VIN, the current registration and a set of photos covering the cab, frame and fifth wheel, and we can start from there.
Dump trucks for the pits and the quarry
Mine Safety and Health Administration records list the Beltline Pit, a sand and gravel operation, 18.7 miles south-west of town, and Post Oak No 1, another sand and gravel site, at 21.6 miles in the same direction. Tandem dumps and end-dump tractors that cycle between those pits and job sites are trucks we buy, whether they sit in a yard near the pit or behind a house on a county road.
East of town, the Wills Point Lester Plant 1655 crushed-stone quarry is 18.9 miles out according to the Mine Safety and Health Administration. For a rock truck that hauled from there, gather the title, the registration and any service records you kept before you call.
Petroleum rack
Fuel rigs loading north-east of McLendon-Chisholm
A 17.1-mile drive north-east of McLendon-Chisholm reaches SUNOCO CADDO LLC, which the Energy Information Administration lists as a petroleum product terminal. Fuel tractors and straight-truck tankers that loaded at that rack belong on the list of what we collect, and the tank equipment does not have to come off first.
When you describe a tanker, say what the tractor pulled and keep any terminal or inspection paperwork in the cab. Those sheets travel with the truck and save a round of questions once we see the photos.
Contractor trucks kept at McLendon-Chisholm home shops
Of the 508 jobs the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts place in McLendon-Chisholm for 2023, construction held 59, an 11.6 percent slice. Flatbeds, stake beds and dump trucks owned by small builders are the likely sellers here, often a single unit kept at a home shop.
Construction establishments number 136 in the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns tally. If your company is winding down one truck out of a few, we take that one truck; tell us where it is kept and who holds the keys.
Livestock land
Cattle, horses and sheep on Rockwall County land
USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 359 farms in Rockwall County, with cattle, equine and sheep as the leading operations. Livestock haulers, gooseneck tractors and farm straight trucks from those places are part of what we buy, and pickup can happen right at the barn or pasture gate.
A ranch truck titled to a family member or a partnership needs that named owner’s signature. Settle that before collection day, and if the title is lost, the state’s title agency issues the replacement.
Between 2024-09-04 and 2026-08-27, roadside inspectors logged 263 trucks from around McLendon-Chisholm, and FMCSA roadside inspection records put their median model year at 2019. Of those 263, a 35.7 percent share carried a model year ten or more years back, per the same FMCSA roadside inspection records.
Whatever the model year on your registration, we buy across that whole range. Have the odometer reading, the VIN and photos of each side ready, and note whether the truck is kept on pavement or on grass so we can plan the collection.
