Sell your semi truck for cash in Floyd the easy and convenient way

The node attached to this place is the Floyd Quarry, run by Salem Stone Corporation with six people on the federal register, its coordinate 3.27 miles from the centroid. It is carried as crushed granite in the mine record.

The state aggregate register puts it a little differently. It lists the quarry under quarry code 05_2076_Q with coarse aggregate approved in 2025, and gives the geology as amphibole rather than granite — a harder, denser rock than the limestone most of this state’s quarries work.

Operator and town both agree between the two records, which is why the join is made at all. The register carries no coordinates, so a match on town alone would attach one company’s approval to another’s pit.

Those six people load onto a circle that looks alarming until you read it properly, and this node is the clearest example on file of why the raw number misleads. Within ten miles the inventory records 98 structures; thirteen are coded posted for load and four are rated below legal loads, 4.1%.

The lowest rating among them is 8.5 metric tonnes. That is below the 11.0 tonnes an empty tandem already weighs, so no commercial vehicle crosses it under any load — it is not a restriction a truck negotiates, it is one a truck ignores. The lowest that a commercial vehicle can actually use is 26.3 tonnes, about 29.0 US tons, and the nearest restricted crossing of any kind is 6.26 miles out.

A gap of 17.8 tonnes between the raw minimum and the usable floor is the second widest of the ninety Virginia circles measured this way, behind the 22.9 at the Doswell quarry — and wider than the 15.5 at Norton Quarry, where a 4.5-tonne crossing made that node look like the most restricted in its batch when it sits nearer the middle. Read on the raw figure this circle looks punishing. Read on the floor that a truck can actually use, 26.3 tonnes admits some 15.3 tonnes of stone, and it is one of the more generous circles in the state.

Beyond the roads, the title regime follows the truck rather than the route, and Virginia writes it unusually. Va. Code § 46.2-1600 sets three salvage thresholds where most states set one. A late model vehicle is salvage where estimated repair would exceed its actual cash value less its current salvage value. A recovered stolen vehicle acquired by an insurer is salvage above seventy-five per cent of actual cash value. A vehicle is nonrepairable above ninety per cent of its value before the damage.

Subtracting the salvage value makes the base smaller, so that first test is easier to trip rather than harder — the opposite of what comparing the bare percentages suggests. The rebuilt test then runs inside out: it measures the repair cost excluding damage to the engine, transmission or drive axle assembly, the exact inverse of Oklahoma, which counts only the suspension, motor, transmission, frame and structural components.

Late model is the current model year and the five preceding, or any vehicle whose value before the damage met the floor the section names, so an older truck outside that limb sits outside the salvage regime altogether. The repair figure also excludes towing, storage, a temporary replacement and diminished-value compensation — storage and diminished value being two items no other state on file names.

Weight is set at § 46.2-1122 and § 46.2-1127 — 20,000 lb on a single axle, 34,000 lb on a tandem and 80,000 lb gross — and the interstate limits are the same as the highway limits, so there is no inversion here to catch a driver out at the ramp.

Those rules apply to whatever you drive, and the offer does not sort by type either. Tandems and tri-axles off the stone work that Floyd County runs on, including whatever loads 3.27 miles out at the Salem Stone Corporation pit. Day cabs and road tractors on the runs off the plateau. Flatbeds, box trucks, straight trucks and rollbacks out of the trades, plus service bodies and the crew pickups that go with them.

Whatever you drive, the offer doesn’t change. We buy all of them.

Getting it to us is the part that flexes. We can come to you and drive it away, or come and tow it; we can also buy it remotely and arrange the tow with nobody visiting at all, and you are welcome to bring it here instead.

We buy complete trucks. If the engine, transmission, doors, rear ends, drive shafts, wheels or anything under the hood have been removed, we can’t buy it. Small things — a missing bumper — are fine.

• Does it have to run?No. It does have to be complete — if the engine, transmission, doors, rear ends, drive shafts, wheels or anything under the hood have been removed, we can’t buy it. Rust is not a disqualifier.
• I heard there is an eight-tonne bridge near here.There is, and no lorry has ever used it — 8.5 tonnes is under the weight of an empty tandem, so it is a crossing for cars. The one that actually governs a loaded truck around here rates 26.3 tonnes and sits 6.26 miles out, which is a good deal more forgiving than the raw figure suggests. It is about the same distance again from the Salem Stone Corporation pit 3.27 miles off the centroid.
• Do you come out to Floyd County?We do. We can also buy it remotely and arrange the tow if that suits you better — the drive is our problem either way.
• How am I paid?Cash or electronic payment. That is the whole list.
• What about the title?We need one unless the truck is old enough that it never had one. A lost title has a counter replacement; where none exists there is a bonded route.

None of those questions is why the phone rings. Retiring. A medical that went the wrong way. A hauling contract that finished. A tandem standing through a Floyd County winter 3.27 miles from the Salem Stone Corporation gate, insurance going out on something that is not turning a wheel.

Most of those aren’t happy reasons, and we don’t treat them like they are. Somebody wants a straight answer and the truck gone. That’s what we’re here for.
