Next door to the pit
Ewing Stone, a tenth of a mile west
Ewing Stone, a crushed-stone quarry on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list, sits just 0.1 miles west of the middle of Ewing. A tri-axle or end dump that hauls rock out of that pit is often parked within sight of the scale house, so tell us whether it sits on quarry ground or at your own place.
If the truck is behind the quarry fence, ask the site office who can walk an outside crew in, and pass that name to us with the VIN. Include photos of the bed, the hoist and the data plate in that same message.
Say whether a trailer or a second body goes with the truck. A seller who lists every piece up front gets questions about the right equipment, not about what was missing from the photos.
A Powell Valley pit and the Mayflower coal plant beyond it
Seventeen and a half miles east of Ewing, the Mine Safety and Health Administration records Powell Valley Stone Company Incorporated, another crushed-stone quarry. Aggregate trucks running between that pit and Ewing Stone travel the length of the valley, and either end of that run is a place we can collect.
To the north-east, about 23.5 miles out, the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists the Mayflower Preparation Plant, a coal preparation plant. A coal hauler that loads there may be parked at the plant lot or back home in Ewing between shifts; give us the exact spot and any gate code.
Keep gate passes, plant safety sheets and inspection reports with the title. They show where the truck has worked, and we can read them alongside the photos you send.
Ewing’s freight, timber and livestock haulers
Of the 21 active Ewing carriers in FMCSA’s census, general freight appears on the lists of 16. Four haul logs, poles, beams or lumber, three carry livestock and three move metal sheets, coils and rolls, so the trucks here range from flatbeds and log rigs to stock trailers and dry vans.
Seventeen of those Ewing carriers hold interstate authority and four stay intrastate, while six run as private fleets hauling their own goods, according to the federal carrier census. Tell us which kind of operation the truck served; it shapes which registration papers we ask to see.
Five new carriers registered in Ewing during 2025 and two the year before, per FMCSA. A newer operator selling a first truck should have the title, the registration card and the authority paperwork in one folder before calling us.
Twenty-three drivers at Ewing carriers keep to a local radius, against twelve who travel past the hundred-mile line, a split drawn from FMCSA’s carrier census. A local truck is usually parked in a yard or driveway in town; a long-haul tractor may be out on the road, so tell us where it will be on the day we come.
The median Ewing truck covers 29,845 miles a year, going by the eight local carriers that file mileage with FMCSA. Send the odometer reading with your first message, next to the VIN, so both figures arrive together.
The biggest fleet in town, by the federal census, has eight power units and eight drivers; the next two run four and three trucks. Owners with several units can sell one or all of them, and a list of VINs is the place to start.
Jonesville DMV
A Jonesville counter for Ewing duplicates
Duplicate titles come from the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles, which handles them at its DMV Customer Service Centers and DMV Select offices. For Ewing owners the agency lists DMV Customer Service Center - Jonesville, 195 Hill Street, Jonesville, 24263, about 18 miles from town.
Take identification and the VIN to the Jonesville counter, and if a lender still holds a lien, request its release letter at the same visit. With the replacement title in hand, the rest of the sale runs on the registration, any service records and the keys.
Farm trucks around Ewing’s pastures
Lee County has 629 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, and cattle, sheep and horses head the list of what they raise. Stock trucks, gooseneck haulers and flatbeds from those farms around Ewing are trucks we buy.
A farm truck may sit in a barn lot or a field rather than on pavement. Tell us how close a tow rig can get, whether a gate needs opening, and send a photo of the approach along with the truck.
