Streetman and south-west
Pits and quarries along the Groesbeck side of Wortham
Arcosa Streetman Plant # 1605, an industrial-mineral mine, lies 9.4 miles north-east of Wortham on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list of operations. A dump truck or tractor that has hauled out of that plant can be collected wherever it sits, whether that is a yard in town or a lot near Streetman; send us the address and a photo of the cab door with the unit number.
Toward Groesbeck the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists three more sites: Cedar Creek Stone Co Ltd at 14 miles, Skyhigh Pit at 14.9 miles and the Groesbeck Quarry sand and gravel operation at 17.6 miles, all south-west of Wortham. If your truck spent its seasons hauling aggregate along that stretch, keep the scale tickets or haul logs you still have; they tell us what the body and axles were set up for.
Two rail yards bracketing the town
Southeast of Wortham by 15 miles sits the TEAGUE yard, and 21.1 miles north is the HILL yard, both mapped on the North American Rail Network that the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics keep. Trucks that shuttle loads between a siding and a customer often end up parked at the yard end of the run, so tell us which yard your tractor works from when you get in touch.
A day cab that has worked the Teague side does not need to come back to Wortham before we see it. Give us the gate details for the lot, the VIN and a clear view of the tires and fifth wheel, and the pickup is planned around where the truck already is.
Flatbeds, lumber and hay on Wortham’s carrier roll
Fifteen active carriers are based in Wortham according to FMCSA’s carrier census, and eleven of them operate only inside Texas while four cross state lines. Of that Wortham fifteen, five haul their own goods as private fleets in the same federal census. A seller from a one-truck outfit like most of these should have the cab card and the current registration ready alongside the title.
In FMCSA’s carrier census, general freight is the cargo eight of those outfits list; logs, poles, beams and lumber are listed by three, machinery and large objects by three, and grain, feed and hay by two. A flatbed or lowboy that moved timber or equipment around the county is the kind of unit we collect, and the trailer can be listed together with the tractor.
The biggest outfit here, per the same federal census, runs three power units with three drivers, followed by fleets of two and one. Wortham gained two new carrier registrations in 2025 and a single one in 2024, by FMCSA’s records. A small fleet selling more than one truck can send every VIN in one message so the collection is arranged as a single visit.
Short-haul routes around Freestone and Limestone
Thirteen of the Wortham carriers send drivers within a 100-mile radius, and ten report work beyond it, by FMCSA’s carrier census. A truck that comes home every night is usually sitting at the owner’s place or a shop yard when we arrive, so say which one and whether a loader is needed to reach it.
For a long-haul sleeper that may be out of state when you decide to sell, tell us where it will be parked next and when the driver will be there. We pick up at the truck’s location, so the logbook or ELD records showing its last stop help us line up the visit.
Fairfield’s tax office, up the road from Wortham
The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles handles certificates of title through county tax assessor-collector offices, and the one serving Wortham is the Freestone County Tax Office at 305 W Commerce, Fairfield, 75840, 18.1 miles from town on the Texas DMV’s office list. If the title is missing, a certified copy can be requested there before the sale is closed.
For the trip to Commerce Street from Wortham, carry your driver’s license, the truck’s VIN and, where a lender once held a lien, its signed release. A title still in a former partner’s or late relative’s name should be sorted at that office first; the name on it has to match the person signing it over to us.
Cattle, horses and goats on the county’s farms
Around Wortham and across Freestone County, 1,291 farms are counted by USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, and cattle lead that list ahead of equine and goats. A grain, feed or hay hauler, a cattle pot or a flatbed that carried round bales around Wortham all fit what we collect; tell us whether the trailer goes with it.
Ranch trucks are often parked in a pasture or a barn lot rather than on pavement. Mention any gate code, cattle guard or soft ground when you write, and send a photo of the approach so the driver knows what to bring.
Jobs and builders in a small Freestone town
The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts place 263 jobs in Wortham in 2023, for a town of 1,160 residents. Builders are few here: the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns shows three construction establishments serving Wortham and its ZIP area. A dump truck or flatbed from a small local contractor can be listed with the equipment hauler that went with it.
Construction trucks tend to sit on job sites between projects. If yours is parked at a site rather than at home, give us the site address and the name of whoever can open the gate.
The questions we get asked in Wortham
- Can you collect a truck parked near the Streetman plant or the Groesbeck quarries?Those sites lie 9.4 to 17.6 miles from Wortham on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list, and we collect from wherever the truck is parked, including quarry lots; send the address and gate details.
- Which Freestone office reissues a lost Texas truck title for a Wortham seller?The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles lists the Freestone County Tax Office at 305 W Commerce in Fairfield, 18.1 miles away, as the title office for Wortham; ask there for a certified copy.
- Do you take hay and livestock haulers?Freestone County’s 1,291 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture are led by cattle, horses and goats, and the trucks and trailers that serve them are ones we collect.
- I run a two-truck outfit; can I sell both?Wortham’s carriers in FMCSA’s census run fleets of one to three power units, and a small fleet can send every VIN together so both units are arranged as one collection.
