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

Richwood sits in Brazoria County between the Hoskins rail yards and the docks of Port Freeport, and the trucks registered here mostly haul general freight, machinery and oilfield equipment on short runs around the coast.

Selling a truck in Richwood? Tell us about it and we'll take it from there.

Two Hoskins yards, one Velasco ramp

The North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, places the Hoskins rail yard 3.8 miles south of Richwood and South Hoskins 4.8 miles out. A tractor that shuttles between those yards and local customers is often parked near the tracks between loads, so tell us the yard or lot where it sits and who holds the gate key.

Port Freeport lies 7.6 miles away according to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, which also lists the Velasco Container Terminal, an intermodal ramp, 9.1 miles to the south-east. For a day cab that has hauled chassis on that ramp, send the VIN, the plate and photos of the cab, the frame and the fifth wheel.

Liquid and roll-on cargo

Horizon Terminal, liquid bulk and the Clemens Caverns

Port Freeport’s Horizon Terminal, a roll-on/roll-off facility at the South Gate (Gate 4), is 9.3 miles south-east of town on the Bureau of Transportation Statistics list, and a liquid bulk terminal at Freeport sits 9.9 miles out. Tank tractors and lowboy units that have worked those gates fit what we buy; keep the registration and any terminal access records together so the paperwork travels with the truck.

The Energy Information Administration names the Clemens Caverns petroleum product terminal near Brazoria, 10.8 miles south-west, and a second Freeport product terminal 20.7 miles west. When a tractor has been hauling product between those sites, keep its service file on hand at pickup, along with the Texas title in the owner’s name.

Freight, machinery and oilfield haulers in Richwood

FMCSA’s carrier census shows 20 active carriers based in Richwood, and 11 of them list general freight while 5 carry machinery and large objects. Machinery haulers usually run a tractor with a lowboy or step deck, so if you are selling the trailer too, say so and give us its own VIN and plate.

Dry bulk and oilfield equipment each appear on 3 carrier registrations in the same federal census. A truck set up for either work may be parked at a customer’s site rather than at home; give us the address and a phone number for whoever can let our driver in.

Of those Richwood carriers, 19 operate intrastate and just 1 crosses state lines, according to FMCSA’s carrier census, which also counts 5 private fleets hauling their own goods. A truck that has only worked inside Texas still sells the same way: we need the title, the current registration and the keys.

One-truck owners and fleets of a handful

FMCSA’s carrier census puts the biggest fleet based here at 6 power units and 7 drivers, with the next two at 4 units and 3 units. Owners with two or three tractors can sell them together or one at a time; list each VIN and where each truck is parked.

Driver records filed with FMCSA show 18 Richwood carriers working within 100 miles and 15 reporting runs beyond that. If your tractor is out on a longer haul when you contact us, tell us where it will be parked next and we will arrange collection there.

Job sites, warehouses and Richwood factories

Richwood had 805 jobs in 2023 by the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts, and construction made up 202 of them, a 25.1 percent share. Dump trucks, flatbeds and equipment haulers that serve job sites are among the trucks we collect; photos of the bed or body as well as the cab help us understand the truck.

Wholesale trade held 72 jobs and manufacturing 56 in the same 2023 LEHD figures from the Census Bureau. Straight trucks and box trucks that deliver for those employers are welcome too; have the title and registration ready and note whether a liftgate is fitted.

Rice, cattle and corn across Brazoria County

Brazoria County counted 2,538 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, with rice, cattle and corn as its leading products. Grain trucks, cattle haulers and farm tractors used on the road are part of what we buy, and a farm truck parked in a barn or field can be collected right there.

If a farm truck carries farm plates or was titled under a family member’s name, sort out the title before we schedule pickup; a lost Texas title is replaced through the state’s title agency.
