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

FMCSA’s carrier census shows 24 active motor carriers based in Progreso, and 22 of them are registered for intrastate work while just one runs interstate. If your tractor has stayed on Texas roads, its registration and any intrastate authority paperwork are the two documents to pull out first when you get in touch.

Three of those 24 Progreso carriers are private fleets moving their own goods, according to the same FMCSA census. A farm or packing business selling a truck it used for itself should have the title in the business’s name and someone able to sign for the company on the day we collect.

Fleets here are small: per FMCSA’s census, one Progreso outfit runs six power units with six drivers, the next runs three, and another runs two. A one- or two-truck owner can send the VIN, a few cab and frame photos and the registration card, and that covers most of what we ask.

Grain, feed and hay is the cargo listed by 11 Progreso carriers in FMCSA’s census, with general freight at 9, fresh produce at 6 and beverages at 2. Hopper-pulling tractors, reefer units and dry-van day cabs all fit that mix, so tell us which trailer the truck usually pulled and whether the trailer is part of the sale.

USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 2,045 farms across Hidalgo County, with cotton, corn and cattle at the top of the list. A truck that worked gins, grain elevators or cattle pens around Progreso is often parked on farm ground, so give us the field or yard address and a note on the gate or lane we should use.

Fresh produce, listed by six Progreso carriers under FMCSA’s census, usually means a refrigerated unit on the trailer. If the reefer goes with the truck, include the reefer unit’s make and hour reading in your photos alongside the tractor’s VIN plate.

In FMCSA’s census, 21 Progreso carriers report drivers working within 100 miles of base and 18 report drivers going beyond that range. Either way the truck tends to come home to Progreso between trips, so pick a day it is parked in town and we can arrange the pickup there.

Across the six Progreso outfits that gave FMCSA a yearly mileage figure, a typical truck logs 38,500 miles, the median of that group. Have the current odometer reading ready in a photo of the dash, since it is one of the first figures we confirm against the title.

Between October 2024 and August 2026, roadside inspectors logged 36 Progreso-based trucks, and the middle model year in those FMCSA records is 2014. Whatever year yours is, the title and the VIN on the door jamb should match, so check that before you send photos.

About two in three of those 36 inspected trucks, or 66.7 percent in FMCSA’s roadside records, were ten or more model years old. If your truck went through one of those inspections, keep the inspection report with the title; it shows us where and when the truck was last checked.

The Bureau of Transportation Statistics lists the Donna Rio Valley rail intermodal ramp about 10 miles north-west of Progreso. A day cab that has shuttled containers between that ramp and the farms can be collected wherever it is parked, in town or near the ramp, as long as you give us the address.

Harlingen’s rail yard sits roughly 17 miles north-east on the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. Trucks that have worked rail freight out of Harlingen should come with their registration and any yard access records you still hold.

On the fuel side, the Energy Information Administration places petroleum product terminals at Harlingen, about 22 miles east, and at Edinburg, about 23 miles north-west, and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics adds the Titan Fuel liquid bulk terminal some 23 miles east. If your tractor pulled a tanker to those sites, tell us what the tank carried and whether the trailer is included.

Mine Safety and Health Administration records place La Havana Pit, a crushed-stone quarry, about 19 miles north-west of Progreso, and the Texan Pit sand and gravel operation about 24 miles in the same direction. Dump trucks and end-dump tractors from that pit work are on our list, and a photo of the bed and hoist helps us identify the body type.

Progreso has three builders and three warehouse operators on the books, per the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns. If your truck belongs to one of those businesses, send the company’s name as it appears on the title so the paperwork lines up at pickup.

The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts put 313 jobs in Progreso in 2023, and wholesale trade accounts for 64 of them, or 20.4 percent. A box truck or day cab that has run wholesale deliveries out of Progreso should come with its title, registration and any service records you have kept.

If the title is missing, the state’s title agency in Texas issues replacements, so start that request before you contact us. Send the VIN, photos of the cab, frame and tires, and the address where the truck sits in or around Progreso.

• Will you come out to a cotton or cattle place past the Progreso town line?Hidalgo County has 2,045 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, and we collect from farm yards as well as from town; give us the address and directions to where the truck is parked.
