North-west of Van

Hauling near the Grand Saline Operations mine

Ten miles north-west of Van, the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists Grand Saline Operations, an industrial-mineral mine 10.2 miles out. If your truck is parked at or near that site, send us the gate details and the name of whoever can let a driver in, and we will collect it from there rather than asking you to move it into town.

Of the carriers based in Van, eight haul machinery and large objects according to FMCSA’s carrier census, and County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau puts nine construction establishments in Van Zandt County. If your tractor has pulled a lowboy or equipment trailer to job sites around the mine or the county, tell us which trailer it ran with and send photos of the fifth wheel, the frame and the cab.

Van between the Mineola and Tyler yards

Heading north-east out of Van, a trucker reaches the Mineola rail yard after 12.1 miles, by the North American Rail Network that the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics maintain. A day cab that shuttles freight to and from that yard can be picked up wherever it sits at the end of a shift, whether that is a yard in Mineola or a driveway in Van.

South-east of Van, the Tyler yard sits 23.3 miles away on the North American Rail Network. If you live near Tyler but the truck is still parked in Van, or the other way round, give us the address where the truck actually is and a phone number for someone nearby; the sale itself can be handled from wherever you are.

Van carriers

Forty carriers, most of them working inside Texas

FMCSA’s carrier census shows 40 active carriers based in Van, and half of them, 20, list general freight. Box trucks, day cabs and sleepers on general freight work are all trucks we buy, so start with the VIN, the odometer reading and a few clear photos.

Thirty-two of those carriers run intrastate only and eight cross state lines, while sixteen operate as private fleets hauling their own goods, all per the same federal carrier census. A private-fleet truck often carries a company name on the doors; tell us who holds the title so the paperwork goes to the right person.

The largest fleet registered here runs 30 power units with 38 drivers, and the next runs 20 power units with six drivers, as FMCSA’s census records them. Owners selling several units together can send one list of VINs and we will work through them in a single conversation.

How Van’s trucks are logged at roadside

Between November 2024 and August 2026, FMCSA roadside inspection records logged 35 trucks from Van, with a median model year of 2017 and 45.7 percent of them ten or more model years old. Whatever the year of yours, list it with the make and model when you first get in touch.

Ten carriers here reported mileage to FMCSA, and their median comes to 40,254 miles per truck each year. Keep your service records together with the registration, since a log of what was done and when answers questions before we have to ask them.

New registrations stay small, with two carriers added in 2024 and two more in 2025 under FMCSA’s carrier census. If you set up your authority recently and are now selling the truck, keep your USDOT number to hand so we can match the truck to the carrier on file.

Farm trucks across the county around Van

Around Van, the USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 3,206 farms in Van Zandt County, with cattle, milk and propagative material at the top of the list. Stock trailers, feed trucks and milk haulers on those farms often sit in a barn lot between seasons, and we can collect from the farm itself.

Five Van carriers haul farm supplies and three carry grain, feed and hay, going by FMCSA’s carrier census. If your truck spends its time between pastures and feed stores, send the farm address with the photos, and say whether the lane to the barn will take a tow truck or a lowboy.

The county tax office in Canton

In Texas, titles are issued by the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles and handled locally by county tax assessor-collector offices. The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles lists the Van Zandt County Tax Office at 24632 State Highway 64, Canton, 75103, as the office for Van, about 12.2 miles from town.

If the title is lost, the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles lets you request a copy through that Canton tax office. Start that request before you contact us if you can, and tell us if it is under way, along with any lien on the truck, so the sale and the paperwork move together.
