Selling a truck in Fairfax? Tell us about it and we'll take it from there.

Two fuel terminals named Fairfax, just east

The Energy Information Administration lists two petroleum product terminals under the name Fairfax, both 1.3 miles east of the city. For a tractor that has loaded at those racks, give us the street address of the yard or driveway where it sits, and we will route the pickup there.

Farther out, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics places the Norfolk Southern TBT liquid bulk terminal 9.9 miles east of Fairfax. If your tractor shuttled between these sites, list the terminals it served when you write to us, and attach the registration card and a set of photos of the cab, the frame and the fifth wheel.

Quarries at Chantilly and to the south

Chantilly Crushed Stone Incorporated sits 11.5 miles west of the city, according to the Mine Safety and Health Administration, and the same federal agency records the Graham-Virginia crushed-stone quarry 11.8 miles south. Dump trucks and tri-axles that haul aggregate out of those pits often stay parked near the quarry gate between jobs, and that is where we can collect them.

For a dump truck from either quarry run, have the title in the name of whoever is signing, plus any inspection sheets kept in the cab. Construction accounted for 742 jobs in Fairfax in 2023, about 3 percent of the total, in the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts, so tell us which sites the truck served and we will ask the right follow-up questions.

Carriers here and what they haul

Of the 250 active carriers FMCSA’s carrier census places in Fairfax, 151 list general freight, 28 list household goods, 25 list refrigerated food and 25 list garbage, refuse and trash. A moving van, a reefer box truck or a roll-off is as welcome a call as a tractor; tell us the body type in the first message.

The same federal census splits those carriers into 172 interstate and 78 intrastate operations, and 116 of them are private fleets that move their own goods. If your truck belongs to a private fleet, the person who signs the title must be authorised by the company, so have that letter or resolution ready along with the VIN.

Fairfax fleets retiring several units

One fleet based in Fairfax reports 130 power units and 110 drivers to FMCSA, and two others report 32 units with 37 drivers and 26 units with 29 drivers. If you manage a fleet of that size and are retiring several units at once, send a list with each VIN, its yard location and the titles, and we will plan the collections together.

New entrants keep arriving as well: FMCSA’s carrier census shows 22 new carriers registered in 2024 and 24 in 2025. An owner-operator who started in one of those years should keep the title, the registration and the purchase paperwork together, since those three documents answer most of what we ask before a pickup.

Short-haul drivers and miles per truck

Carriers here report 552 drivers who stay within 100 miles of base and 342 who work beyond it, per FMCSA’s carrier census. A short-haul truck usually ends the day back in a yard around Fairfax, so the pickup tends to be close to town; for a long-haul unit, tell us where it will be parked when you are ready to sell.

FMCSA mileage filings from 76 Fairfax carriers put the typical truck at a median of 15,000 miles annually. Read the odometer and note it with the VIN when you contact us, and send a photo of the dash showing the reading so the figure is on record from the start.

Jobs in the city

Wholesale, manufacturing and warehousing work

The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts put Fairfax at 24,910 jobs in 2023, with 457 in wholesale trade, 218 in manufacturing and 94 in transportation and warehousing. Box trucks and straight trucks that make deliveries for wholesale and manufacturing employers in the city are among the vehicles we purchase, from a single unit to several.

Nearby, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics lists Mark Center 9.9 miles east and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency site 10.4 miles east as military installations. If your truck made deliveries to either and needs a gate pass to be reached, mention that up front and we will arrange the collection somewhere it can be loaded without one.
