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

The North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, places the Sealy yard 11.3 miles north-west of Wallis and Kendleton Intermodal 12.8 miles to the south-east. A tractor that shuttles boxes between those two railheads may be parked at either end when you decide to sell, so tell us which yard or lot it stands in and who holds the gate key.

The Bureau of Transportation Statistics also lists a rail intermodal ramp at Kendleton, 12.9 miles south-east of town. Day cabs that pull chassis off that ramp can be collected right where they sit; send the VIN, a clear photo of the door sticker and the odometer reading, and we can start from there.

Heading west, the Mine Safety and Health Administration records the Garwood sand and gravel operation 16.5 miles out and the Duncan Plant, an industrial-mineral mine, at 18.3 miles. Dump trucks and end-dump tractors that load at pits like these often stay parked on site between jobs, so give us the pit name and a contact who can let a driver through the scale house.

Richmond Material Co, a sand and gravel operation the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists 22.1 miles east, is the other aggregate site within reach of Wallis. If your truck hauled from there, bring the title, the current registration and any service records you kept, and add photos of the bed, the hoist and the cab.

FMCSA’s carrier census counts 47 active motor carriers based in Wallis, with 28 of them hauling general freight, 13 farm supplies, 11 grain, feed and hay, and 9 machinery and large objects. That spread means the trucks we hear about from this town range from van tractors to flatbeds and lowboys, and every one of them fits what we purchase.

Of the companies counted in town, 38 operate intrastate and 9 run interstate, while 17 are private fleets hauling their own goods, according to the same FMCSA census. A private-fleet truck sells the same way as a for-hire one: the titled owner signs, and the registration and any inspection reports travel with it.

Fleet sizes recorded by FMCSA top out at 14 power units with 14 drivers, followed by 10 power units with 7 drivers and a four-truck outfit with four drivers. Whether you are selling one tractor or several from a yard that size, list each unit’s VIN so we can look at them together.

Filings with FMCSA show 38 drivers from this town working inside a hundred-mile radius and 68 going farther than that. A truck that runs long routes may be away from Austin County when you contact us, so tell us where it will be parked and when, and we can arrange collection there.

Among the ten Wallis outfits that gave FMCSA a yearly mileage figure, the median truck logged 41,667 miles. Have the current odometer reading ready alongside the title so the details you send line up with the truck we come to see.

FMCSA’s register also shows 3 new carriers starting up in Wallis during 2025 and 2 in 2024. A young company that has already bought a truck and wants to sell it handles the paperwork the same way as an older one: the name on the title signs it over.

Around Wallis, Austin County holds 1,930 farms by the count in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, with cattle, horses and corn listed as its leading products. Livestock haulers, grain trucks and farm-supply tractors from these operations are often kept in a barn or pasture lot, and we can collect from a farm gate as readily as from a yard.

Thirteen of the town’s carriers haul farm supplies and eleven carry grain, feed and hay, per FMCSA’s census. If your truck carries a livestock trailer or a grain body, say so in your first message and send photos of the trailer coupling and the body as well as the tractor.

Texas titles are issued by the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles through county tax assessor-collector offices, and the one serving Wallis is the Austin County Tax Office at 804 East Wendt Street, Bellville, 77418, about 24.1 miles from town. If the title has gone missing, ask that office for a certified copy before we schedule collection.

A lien on the truck should be released on the title, or the lender’s letter kept with it, when you contact us. Bring the registration and a photo ID of the titled owner too, so the Bellville paperwork and the truck match on the day.

Of the ten structures the National Bridge Inventory records around Wallis, none is load posted and none clears less than fourteen feet, so a tall trailer or a loaded dump can reach most addresses here. Tell us the street the truck sits on and whether a tow truck can pull alongside it.

The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts put 303 jobs in Wallis in 2023, while County Business Patterns lists 14 construction establishments for the area. Contractors with a pickup-and-dump or a flatbed they no longer use can sell it from the job yard; send photos and the VIN, and keep the keys with the truck.

• Our day cab sits at the Kendleton yard south-east of Wallis; does it have to come into town first?Kendleton Intermodal sits 12.8 miles south-east of Wallis on the North American Rail Network, and we collect from the yard itself. Pass along the Kendleton yard contact who can sign the truck out.
• The title for my Wallis tractor is lost; who prints a certified copy?Bellville’s Austin County Tax Office, 804 East Wendt Street, about 24.1 miles from Wallis, issues certified title copies for the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles.

• My dump truck stays at the Garwood sand and gravel pit between loads; will you pick it up from the pit?Garwood’s sand and gravel operation lies 16.5 miles west of Wallis in Mine Safety and Health Administration records, and the truck can be collected on site. Name the Garwood foreman or scale operator who can release it.
• Would you take a cattle hauler off a ranch outside Wallis?Austin County’s 1,930 farms, counted in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, raise mostly cattle, horses and corn, and their livestock, grain and supply trucks are among what we purchase. Send the VIN and photos from the ranch.
