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

The Mine Safety and Health Administration records 1604 Quarry, a crushed-stone operation, 4.3 miles north-west of Universal City, and Lion Cave Materials Briggs Pit 4.6 miles to the north. If your dump truck or end-dump tractor hauls aggregate out of either one, it can stay parked at the pit lot or your yard; give us the gate contact and we collect it there.

Two cement plants appear in the same Mine Safety and Health Administration listing: 1604 QUARRY & PLANT at 5.7 miles north-west and Capitol Cement Plant & Quarry 6.8 miles west. Mixer and bulk pneumatic tanker owners serving those plants should have the title, current Texas registration and any drum or blower service records together before they call us.

Send photos of the chassis, the body or tank, the cab and the VIN plate when you first contact us. For a mixer, include the drum and chute; for a bulk tanker, the hatches and the hopper outlets. Pictures like these let us talk about your exact truck from the first call.

According to the North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, the KIRBY rail yard lies 7.4 miles south-west of Universal City and the SAN ANTONIO TOFC trailer-on-flatcar yard 8 miles out in the same direction. A day cab that shuttles trailers between those ramps and local docks is a truck we buy; tell us which ramp it served and where it is parked.

Two petroleum product terminals sit just beyond the yards, per the Energy Information Administration: SAN ANTONIO BLENDING TERMINAL at 8.8 miles and SAN ANTONIO EAST at 9.1 miles, both south-west. Fuel tanker owners should gather the cargo tank test and inspection reports along with the title, since those papers belong with a tank truck when it changes hands.

If a tractor is still coupled to a leased or customer-owned tank trailer at one of those terminals, let us know whose trailer it is. We arrange collection of the tractor alone and leave the trailer for its owner.

Universal City is home base for 72 active motor carriers, a figure taken from FMCSA’s carrier census. That census registers 52 of them for intrastate work only, 19 for interstate and 8 as private fleets hauling their own goods.

General freight is the cargo 54 of those carriers report to FMCSA’s carrier census, with paper products at 10, fresh produce at 9 and refrigerated food at 8. A reefer tractor, or a straight truck with a refrigerated box, should be described in full, including the make and model of the reefer unit and its hour meter reading.

The same FMCSA census counts 8 carriers newly registered here in 2025 and 4 in 2024. In that census one local fleet holds 350 power units, and the next two hold 3 apiece. Whether you own one tractor or a few, we handle each sale truck by truck.

Roadside stops of 43 trucks belonging to Universal City carriers, logged in FMCSA roadside inspection records from November 2024 through August 2026, show a 2016 median model year and 44 percent of the trucks at ten model years or older. Every one of those model years is one we take; have the year, make, engine and transmission ready when you reach us.

A typical truck here covers 30,000 miles a year, the median across the 19 Universal City carriers that file mileage with FMCSA’s carrier census. Read the odometer and the engine hours off the dash before you call, and photograph both so the numbers we work from are the ones on the truck.

Keep any FMCSA roadside inspection report with the truck’s papers. If yours was inspected and you still have the report, include it with the title and registration.

The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for 2023 place 4,926 jobs in Universal City, and 506 of them, 10.3 percent, are in construction. Wholesale trade accounts for 83 and manufacturing for 55 in those LEHD counts.

Universal City has 31 construction establishments on the books of the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns. Flatbeds, roll-offs, dump trucks and crew trucks from contractors like these are all trucks we collect, from a job site, a contractor’s yard or a driveway.

If the truck is titled to a company rather than to you, the person signing the title must be authorized to sign for that business. Have the company name exactly as it appears on the title and the signer’s details ready.

Inside the city limits, the Federal Highway Administration’s National Bridge Inventory counts 10 bridges, and a hauler leaving a Universal City yard meets no load posting and no clearance below 14 feet on any of them. A heavy tractor or a tall box truck leaving town has no posted bridge limit in the city to plan around.

Beyond the town line, USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 2,107 farms in Bexar County, with cattle, equine and corn at the top of the list. Livestock haulers, horse trailer tractors and grain trucks parked on a ranch or farm can be collected where they sit; give us the gate code and a contact.

If the title to your truck is lost, the state’s title agency issues a certified copy; request one before collection so the paperwork is ready on the day.

• My dump truck sits at a quarry lot north-west of town. Does it have to move before you collect it?1604 Quarry is 4.3 miles north-west of Universal City by the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s listing, and we come to the truck there or at any pit nearby. Name the site and who can let us through the gate.
• My tractor pulls tank trailers out of the San Antonio fuel terminals. Will you take the tractor on its own?SAN ANTONIO EAST, which the Energy Information Administration places 9.1 miles south-west, is one terminal where tractors and trailers often have different owners. We collect the tractor alone and the trailer stays with whoever owns it.
• My reefer truck hauls produce around Texas only. Is an intrastate truck something you buy?Of the 72 active carriers FMCSA’s carrier census lists in Universal City, 52 run intrastate only, and their trucks are trucks we buy. Have the Texas title, registration and the reefer unit’s details ready.
• I can’t find the Texas title for my Bexar County dump truck, so where do I get a replacement?A Bexar County truck carries a Texas title, and a certified copy of a lost one comes from the state’s title agency. Apply for one before the collection date so the sale is not held up.
