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

Around Morton, USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture lists 349 farms in Cochran County, with cotton, sorghum and corn as the leading crops. If your truck has hauled harvest loads off those fields, it may well be sitting at a farm yard or a gin lot rather than in town, and that is where we collect it. Send the address and a note on whether the gate is locked.

Of the 31 active carriers FMCSA’s carrier census records in Morton, 12 list grain, feed and hay as cargo and 9 list dry bulk commodities. A hopper-bottom tractor or a bulk rig from that work is the kind of truck we buy here. Photograph the cab, the frame and the trailer connections, and have the VIN plate in one of the pictures.

Seven Morton carriers haul farm supplies and 15 carry general freight, on the figures in FMCSA’s carrier census. A straight truck that ran seed, feed or fertilizer to the farms south and west of town sells the same way as a road tractor: you tell us what it is, where it sits, and whose name is on the title.

Private fleets account for 15 of the town’s registered carriers, according to that same federal census, meaning companies that move their own goods rather than for hire. If the truck belonged to a farm or a gin that hauled for itself, the title may be in the business’s name. Bring along whoever can sign for that business when the paperwork is done.

Intrastate work dominates the local register: FMCSA’s carrier census counts 22 Morton carriers operating within Texas and 9 crossing state lines. A truck that never left Texas carries Texas registration only, so keep that registration slip with the title when you contact us.

Drivers for carriers here split 32 working inside a hundred-mile radius against 25 who range farther, as the federal carrier census records them. Eleven carriers report mileage, and their median truck covered 29,483 miles a year in that same census. Jot down the odometer reading from the dash of your Morton truck and send it beside the VIN.

The three largest Morton fleets in FMCSA’s carrier census run 14, 8 and 3 power units, with 8, 2 and 3 drivers behind them. Selling one tractor out of a fleet of fourteen works the same as selling one truck an owner-operator drove alone; list each unit with its VIN if you are letting go of more than one.

New entrants are few: one carrier registered in 2024 and one in 2025, per the federal census of motor carriers. If you started hauling recently and are now stepping back, a truck bought in the last year or two still needs a clean title transfer, so keep the bill of sale and lender release together.

In 2023 the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts placed 354 jobs in Morton, and agriculture, forestry, fishing and hunting held 69 of them, a 19.5 percent share. Pickup-and-trailer rigs, cattle haulers and field service trucks belong to that work, and any of them can be listed with us from a farm address.

Builders are a thin slice locally, with the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns showing 3 construction establishments around Morton. A dump truck or flatbed that served those builders can be collected from a job yard; give us a contact on site who can show us to the truck.

Titles in this state go through the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles, which handles copies through its county tax assessor-collector offices. The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles lists the Cochran County Tax Office for Morton sellers at 100 North Main, Rm 101, Morton, 79346, right in town, zero miles from the center.

If the original title is missing, request a certified copy at that Main Street counter before we schedule the pickup. Bring your driver’s license and the VIN, and if a lender once held the title, carry its lien release with you.
