Aggregate haulers between two stone pits
The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists Chantilly Crushed Stone Incorporated 6.7 miles south-west of Herndon and the Leesburg Plant 9.5 miles to the north-west, both crushed-stone quarries. If your dump truck or tri-axle hauls aggregate out of either one, tell us which quarry it loads at and where it is parked between shifts, and we can arrange collection at that yard rather than in town.
A quarry tractor tends to change hands with a gap in its paperwork, so before you call, find the title and the current Virginia registration card. Along with those, send photos of the body, the hoist and the cab from both sides of your Herndon dump truck.
Fuel and bulk liquid to the south-east
Two petroleum product terminals named FAIRFAX appear in the Energy Information Administration’s listings 10.4 miles south-east of Herndon. Further out in that same direction, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics places the Norfolk Southern TBT liquid bulk terminal 18.1 miles from the city.
Tank trucks and tractors that pull tankers between those sites need their hazmat and tank test paperwork kept together; if you sell one, put those records in the cab with the title. Send us the VIN, a photo of the tank’s data plate and the address of the lot where it sits, whether that is off the terminal road or back home in Herndon.
Movers, produce and car haulers on the census
FMCSA’s carrier census shows 121 active carriers based in Herndon, with 75 of them hauling general freight, 24 moving household goods, 10 carrying fresh produce and 9 transporting motor vehicles. A moving van, a reefer box truck or a car hauler from one of those operations is the kind of truck we collect here, and the registration and title are the two documents we ask for first.
Of those Herndon carriers, 69 run interstate and 52 stay inside Virginia, and FMCSA lists 34 as private fleets hauling their own goods. An interstate tractor should come with its cab card and apportioned plate details; an intrastate box truck only needs its Virginia registration alongside the title.
New registrations in Herndon numbered 15 in 2024 and 7 in 2025 according to FMCSA’s carrier census. If your company is one of the newer ones and is retiring a unit, the purchase paperwork from when you bought it helps us confirm the chain of ownership.
Short radius, wide spread of fleet sizes
Herndon carriers report 2,013 drivers working within 100 miles and 272 going beyond that, on FMCSA’s carrier census filings. Most trucks from town close to home most nights, so a pickup in Herndon or at a Fairfax County yard is usually where we will meet you.
Per FMCSA, among 29 carriers that reported mileage the median was 22,000 miles a truck each year. Keep the last odometer photo handy; it is one of the first things we ask for along with the VIN.
The three biggest fleets on FMCSA’s books for Herndon run 2,367, 56 and 7 power units, with 1,855, 162 and 6 drivers respectively. Whether you are an owner-operator with one tractor or a fleet manager clearing several units, we collect each truck from where it is kept and list every VIN on one bill of sale if that suits you.
Late-model tractors and decade-old straight trucks alike
Across 1,005 trucks checked between 2024-08-28 and 2026-08-27, FMCSA roadside inspection records give a median model year of 2022, and 10.85 percent were ten or more years old. We buy trucks from every one of those model years, from late-model tractors to older straight trucks.
For a recent model year, have the lienholder’s name and payoff contact ready if the truck is still financed, since the title will be held by the lender. For an older one, the title and registration in your name are what we need to see.
Wholesale, building and farm work nearby
The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for 2023 place 23,199 jobs in Herndon, including 1,213 in wholesale trade, 428 in manufacturing, 421 in transportation and warehousing and 403 in construction. If you run a delivery straight truck or stake bed for one of those employers, call us when it comes off the roster.
County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau count 94 construction establishments in Herndon, and USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture lists 77 farms across Fairfax County, led by equine, potted flowering plants and honey. A contractor’s flatbed or a horse farm’s pickup-and-gooseneck rig can be sold from the job site or the barn, as long as the title is in the seller’s name.
