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

The Energy Information Administration lists the Mustang Ridge Fuels Terminal as a petroleum product terminal 1.7 miles south-east of town, close enough that a tanker parked at the rack is effectively parked in Mustang Ridge. If your tractor or straight truck hauls from that rack, we can collect it at your yard or at the address where it sits between loads; give us that location and a contact who can open the gate.

Seventeen miles east, Flint Hills Resources’ Bastrop site appears in the same Energy Information Administration listing as a second petroleum product terminal. A tanker that splits its runs between the two racks may be parked near either one, so tell us which when you reach out, and send photos of the tank, the cab and the VIN plate together.

West of Mustang Ridge, the Mine Safety and Health Administration records the Texas-Lehigh Cement Plant and Quarry at 8.5 miles and Buda Quarry, a crushed-stone operation, at 9.7 miles. Bulk pneumatic trailers, end dumps and mixers that work out of those gates are the kinds of trucks we collect here. Have the title and the registration in the owner’s name, and if the truck carried site permits or plant inspection sheets, put them in the folder with it.

To the north and north-east, Garfield Sand and Gravel at 12.2 miles and the Texas Materials Hergotz Plant at 13.2 miles show up in Mine Safety and Health Administration records as sand and gravel operations. A dump truck that rotates among all four pits can be picked up wherever it is parked at the end of the week, so tell us which site or yard it returns to.

Construction made up 30.1 percent of the jobs counted in Mustang Ridge for 2023 under the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts, and County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau puts 33 construction establishments in the area. If your truck belongs to one of those contractors rather than to you personally, have the company’s officer or authorized signer ready to sign the title.

FMCSA’s carrier census shows 180 active carriers based in Mustang Ridge, and 165 of them are registered for intrastate work against only 15 authorized to cross state lines. For a truck from one of those intrastate outfits, bring the Texas title and the current Texas registration when we collect it.

General freight is the cargo listed by 104 of those carriers in FMCSA’s census, with grain, feed and hay listed by 10, logs, poles and lumber by 9, and machinery and large objects by 8. Whether you pull a dry van, a hay trailer or a lowboy, send us the trailer type along with the tractor so we know what we are looking at before we arrive.

Thirty-three of the carriers on FMCSA’s census here run private fleets, hauling their own goods rather than freight for hire. If your truck is a company unit of that kind, let us know who holds the title, since it may be in a business name instead of yours.

The biggest fleets in FMCSA’s carrier census for Mustang Ridge run eight power units each, and the next one down has five. Sellers here are usually owner-operators or small outfits, and we can buy one truck or several from the same yard in one visit; list each VIN when you contact us.

Drivers registered here split into 173 who stay within a hundred-mile radius and 97 who go farther, according to FMCSA’s carrier census. Across the 51 carriers that reported annual mileage, FMCSA figures put the median at 35,000 miles a truck. A truck on those local loops is usually home at night, so tell us the yard address and the hours someone can meet us there.

New registrations have held steady: FMCSA’s carrier census logs 23 new carriers in Mustang Ridge in 2024 and another 23 in 2025. If you bought a truck to start your own authority and are now selling it, have the bill of sale from your purchase and the title in your name before we schedule pickup.

Between September 2024 and August 2026, FMCSA roadside inspection records cover 173 trucks from Mustang Ridge carriers, with a median model year of 2008, and 81.5 percent of those inspected trucks were ten or more model years old by the same records.

Older model years are a normal part of what we buy, and the inspection reports from those roadside stops are useful to have with the truck. If you kept your copies, add them to the title and registration; if not, the VIN is enough for us to start.

Mustang Ridge owners get Texas titles from the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles, which works through county tax assessor-collector offices. The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles lists the Caldwell County Tax Office, at 110 South Main Street in Lockhart, 78644, as the office for Mustang Ridge owners, 11.6 miles from town.

If the title is missing or still shows a lienholder, start the certified copy request with that Lockhart office before you contact us, and bring the lien release if one was issued. Once the copy is in your name we can schedule the pickup.

South toward Lockhart, the countryside is ranch and row-crop land: USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 1,329 farms in Caldwell County, with cattle, corn and sorghum at the top. A cattle pot, a grain hopper or a farm truck kept at a ranch can be collected right there; give us directions to the barn or pasture gate if the address alone will not get us there.

North of town, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics places the NG Bergstrom installation 8.8 miles away and Army Futures Command 16.7 miles out. If your truck is stored on or near either of those, tell us whether access requires an escort or a pass, and we will plan pickup at a gate you can reach.

• Will you pick up a tanker that loads at the Mustang Ridge fuel terminal?The Mustang Ridge Fuels Terminal is 1.7 miles south-east of town by the Energy Information Administration’s listing, and we collect tankers from the yard or parking spot where they sit between loads; send the address and photos of the tank and VIN plate.
• The Caldwell County title for my tractor has gone missing; which Lockhart office replaces it?The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles lists the Caldwell County Tax Office at 110 South Main Street in Lockhart, 11.6 miles from Mustang Ridge, for title copies; request a certified copy there and bring any lien release.
• Will you take a dump truck off the Texas-Lehigh or Buda Quarry haul?Buda Quarry and the Texas-Lehigh plant sit about 9 to 10 miles west of Mustang Ridge in Mine Safety and Health Administration records, and dump trucks, mixers and bulk trailers from those sites are trucks we collect; have the title and registration ready.
• Will you come out to Mustang Ridge for a single owner-operator tractor?Most of Mustang Ridge’s 180 carriers on FMCSA’s census are small, with the biggest running eight power units, so a single truck from an owner-operator is the usual case here; send the VIN and photos to start.
