Freight, timber and refuse out of Blackstone

General freight is the cargo class for 28 of the 34 active Blackstone carriers on FMCSA’s carrier census; a mixed-load tractor or box truck parked at a Nottoway County home or yard is a truck we collect. If your tractor or box truck has spent its years on mixed loads around Nottoway County, it fits squarely within what we buy; tell us the make, model year and VIN when you get in touch.

Thirteen of those Blackstone carriers declare logs, poles, beams and lumber on their FMCSA registration. A log truck or a tractor that pulled a pole trailer out of the county’s timber tracts is one we collect, so mention the trailer type and whether the truck is coupled to it when it is parked.

Seven local carriers haul machinery and large objects, and six carry garbage, refuse and trash, according to the same federal carrier census. Lowboy tractors and roll-off or rear-load refuse trucks from Blackstone are both on our list; photos of the body or the deck along with the cab help us describe the right truck back to you.

A nine-unit fleet and a string of one-truck outfits

At the head of Blackstone’s list on FMCSA’s carrier census sits a 9-unit fleet with 10 drivers, followed by outfits of 4 units and 4 drivers and of 3 units and 3 drivers. Most sellers here are owner-operators or run a handful of units, so one person usually holds the title, the registration and the keys; have all three together before we schedule the collection.

Seventeen Blackstone carriers are authorised for interstate work and seventeen for intrastate work, and five run private fleets, as FMCSA records show. A private-fleet truck owned by a business may be titled to the company rather than a person, so check whose name is on the title and who can sign for it.

FMCSA’s carrier census adds four Blackstone carriers registered during 2024 and three more during 2025, a short list of new outfits with trucks that are often still in the founder’s name. If you started a small trucking outfit in the last couple of years and are now winding it down, the truck you bought for it can be sold on its own; send us the title and registration details first.

Where Blackstone drivers spend their working days

According to FMCSA’s carrier census, 15 drivers at Blackstone carriers work within 100 miles of base and 49 work beyond that radius. A truck that runs long routes may be parked out of state when you decide to sell, so tell us the town and the yard it sits in, not only your home address.

Only nine Blackstone carriers file yearly mileage with FMCSA’s carrier census, and the middle figure among them is 50,176 miles per truck, a neutral number you can set beside your own odometer reading. Have the odometer reading ready with the VIN; those two numbers are the first things we ask for, and service records are welcome if you kept them.

Fort Barfoot, Crewe and the Burkeville quarry

The Bureau of Transportation Statistics lists NG Fort Barfoot MTC & FMS 15, a military installation, about 6 miles south-east of Blackstone. If your truck is parked near the installation’s edge or at a contractor lot close by, give us the exact address and a contact who can open the gate.

Ten miles north-west, the North American Rail Network maintained by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics places the Crewe rail yard. A tractor that shuttles loads to and from the rail sidings near Crewe can be collected where it stands; it does not have to come back into Blackstone first.

The Burkeville Plant, a crushed-stone quarry recorded by the Mine Safety and Health Administration, lies 13.2 miles north-west of Blackstone. Dump trucks and tractors that pulled aggregate from Burkeville are trucks we purchase; tell us whether the truck is inside the quarry site so the collection can be arranged with whoever controls access.

Farms, factories and building crews

USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 303 farms in Nottoway County, with soybeans, corn and goats as the leading products. A grain truck or a farm tractor-trailer that hauls soybeans and corn at harvest is one we collect from the farm itself; note whether it carries farm plates when you contact us.

The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for 2023 show 1,629 jobs in Blackstone, including 102 in manufacturing and 50 in agriculture, forestry, fishing and hunting. Box trucks and straight trucks that served those employers can be sold directly by the business that owns them, once someone with signing authority is ready to sign the title.

Sixteen construction establishments operate in the area, as County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau records. Dump trucks, flatbeds and service bodies from building crews are all trucks we take; photograph the body and any mounted equipment as well as the cab.

Lost titles, liens and signatures in Nottoway

Virginia titles are handled by the state’s title agency, and a Blackstone seller with a missing title should apply to it for a duplicate before the sale. If a lender still holds a lien, ask it for the release letter so the title can be signed over cleanly.

Keep the current registration, your photo ID and any inspection or service records together with the title. If the truck belongs to a business, add a document showing that the person signing can act for it, and we can finish the paperwork at the truck when we collect it.
