Accomack County
Where Deep Creek sits
Deep Creek is in Accomack County, and the census counts 95 people here, at 158 per square mile, with a median age of 55.7 years.
What we know about Deep Creek is what the census records and what Virginia law requires; the yards, pits and depots we have researched elsewhere have no entry here. So the question we can actually answer is how a truck gets out, not who else might want it.
Virginia weight law
That road has a number on it
That route out is where the state stops being an abstraction. Virginia sets the ceiling before any local sign lowers it.
In Virginia the extension weight limit is +5% on single axle, tandem axle and gross weight, based on axle spacing and axle count.
In Virginia the trip limits are from "the place where they are first produced, cut, harvested, or felled to the location where they are first processed".
In Virginia, commissioner; regulations may be promulgated; fees referenced at § 46.2-1128.
Virginia paperwork
Then the paperwork has to match the truck
Those limits decide the route. The title decides whether there is a sale at all.
In Virginia, storage liens — anyone who stores a motor vehicle (Va. Code § 46.2-644.01).
In Virginia, mechanics' liens — those who perform work on a motor vehicle (Va. Code § 46.2-644.02).
In Virginia, a mechanics' or storage lien may be enforced by sale at public auction after the owner has failed to pay an invoice at least 10 days after it is due.
So what leaves Deep Creek
Those two rules meet 95 people in Deep Creek, Accomack County, at a household median around $2,499 and a density of 158 per square mile. A truck sitting in a driveway here is a working asset that has stopped working, whatever the size of the place it stopped in.
What we take out of a place like this is sleeper tractors and day cabs, dump trucks and roll-offs, box trucks and flatbeds, pickups and duallys, and the service and utility bodies that outlive the business that bought them.
