Tank work west of North Richland Hills
The Energy Information Administration places an ethanol terminal 6.5 miles west of North Richland Hills and a blending terminal 6.6 miles to the south-west. A tractor that pulls fuel or ethanol trailers out of either gate can stay parked at its yard in that corridor; give us the street address and the name of whoever can let us onto the lot.
Two liquid bulk terminals sit just past them, at 6.9 and 8.4 miles west of the city on Bureau of Transportation Statistics listings. If your tanker unit loads at one of these, send us the VIN, a photo of the cab plate, and the most recent annual inspection sheet, and we can set a collection date around the terminal’s own schedule.
Day cabs on the Hodge and Alliance runs
According to the North American Rail Network, which the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics maintain, the Hodge yard lies 6.6 miles south-west and the North yard 7 miles west of North Richland Hills. Drayage day cabs that shuttle between those yards and local docks are trucks we collect, wherever they are parked between runs.
Up at Alliance, 12.2 miles north-west, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics lists a rail intermodal ramp. A container hauler based near the ramp does not need to come back into town; tell us which lot it sits on and have the registration card and title in the cab or with you when we arrive.
Who runs trucks from here
FMCSA’s carrier census counts 221 active motor carriers based in North Richland Hills, with 150 of them listing general freight, 28 household goods, 27 machinery and large objects, and 26 logs, poles, beams and lumber. Moving vans, lowboy tractors and log trucks each go on the same short list of paperwork: title, registration, and any service records you keep.
Of those carriers, 143 operate intrastate and 75 cross state lines, and 52 run private fleets for their own goods, according to the same FMCSA census. If your truck carried only Texas loads, the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles title is all the ownership proof we ask for; an apportioned plate from interstate work should come with its cab card.
New registrations in the FMCSA census show 20 carriers added in 2025 and 16 in 2024 in this city. That same census lists the three biggest local fleets at 201, 97 and 44 power units; whether you are selling one tractor or several from a yard, list every VIN in a single message and we will plan the pickups together.
Short runs and long hauls
Carriers here report 354 drivers working within 100 miles and 693 working beyond it, per FMCSA’s carrier census. A sleeper that spends weeks on the road can be collected wherever it ends its last trip, so tell us the city and state it will be in rather than routing it home first.
Among the 43 local carriers that report mileage to FMCSA, the median annual figure is 46,000 miles per truck. Put the current odometer reading and the engine make in your first message; with the VIN, that pair lets us identify the tractor.
Model years on the road
Across 450 trucks from North Richland Hills carriers stopped between September 2024 and August 2026, FMCSA roadside inspection records give a median model year of 2020. Give us the exact model year from the title so the truck is matched to the right spec.
One in five of those inspected local trucks, 20.2 percent by the FMCSA roadside count, carried a model year a decade or more back. Older units and recent ones go through the same steps with us: photos of all four sides, the cab interior and the VIN plate.
Factories, contractors and Tarrant County ranches
Of the 23,848 jobs the Census Bureau’s LEHD counts placed in North Richland Hills for 2023, manufacturing held 1,123, construction 948, wholesale trade 476 and transportation and warehousing 401. Box trucks and flatbeds working for these employers are often parked at a shop or job site during the week, so say where the keys are kept.
County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau lists 136 construction establishments in the city, and USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 1,000 farms in Tarrant County, led by cattle, horses and wheat. Dump trucks, livestock haulers and grain tractors kept on a ranch outside town can be collected at the gate once you share directions.
Clearances on North Richland Hills streets
The National Bridge Inventory from the Federal Highway Administration lists 66 bridges in North Richland Hills, with one carrying a posted load limit and none under 14 feet of clearance. Tell us the address the truck is parked at and we will plan the route to it.
If the title is missing, the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles, the state’s title agency, issues certified copies. Start that request before pickup so the paperwork is in hand on the day.
