Quarry beside Jonesville
Powell Valley Stone and the quarry run west
The Mine Safety and Health Administration places Powell Valley Stone Company Incorporated, a crushed-stone quarry, just 0.2 miles south-west of Jonesville. A dump truck or tri-axle that loads there may well be parked within sight of the pit when you call us, and that is fine: give us the gate or yard address and we will arrange the collection at that spot.
Ewing Stone, another crushed-stone quarry on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list, lies 17.9 miles west of town. If your truck splits its week between the two quarries, tell us which yard it sleeps in on the day you want it gone, and send photos of the bed, the cab and the VIN plate so we can match the truck to its paperwork.
Mayflower and Lone Mountain coal plants
Mayflower Preparation Plant, a coal preparation plant, is 9.8 miles north of Jonesville according to the Mine Safety and Health Administration, and LONE MOUNTAIN PLANT sits 11.7 miles to the north-east. Coal haulers that cycle between those plants often stay on a site lot between loads, so let us know whether the truck is at the plant or back home in town before we plan the visit.
For a tractor or end-dump that has served the prep plants, hand over any site safety checks or service logs you kept along with the title. Without them, a plain account of which plant it hauled for and what it pulled gives us the same picture.
Lumber on the filings
Log haulers, lowboys and feed flatbeds
Logs, poles, beams and lumber turn up on 11 of the 19 active Jonesville carrier filings in FMCSA’s carrier census. Log trucks and knuckleboom rigs are therefore a familiar sight around town, and we buy them along with the trailers that go with them.
General freight appears on the filings of 8 of those carriers, machinery and large objects on 6, and farm supplies on 4, per the same federal carrier census. A lowboy that moves equipment between job sites or a flatbed that carries feed out to Lee County farms is just as welcome as a straight logging truck.
Ten Jonesville carriers are registered for interstate work and 9 stay intrastate, while 9 operate as private fleets hauling their own goods, as FMCSA’s census records them. Whichever kind of outfit you run, the registration card and the title in the owner’s name are the two papers we ask for first.
Mileage and the three big outfits
Valley routes and fleet sizes in Jonesville
Among drivers working for carriers registered in town, FMCSA’s census puts 70 inside a hundred-mile radius against 15 who go beyond it. That makes it likely your truck is in Jonesville or a nearby yard rather than out on a long trip, which keeps the collection simple to arrange.
Per truck, the median annual distance across the eight Jonesville carriers reporting mileage to FMCSA’s census sits at 10,336. Have the current odometer reading ready when you contact us, alongside the VIN, since those two numbers start every conversation we have about a truck.
The three biggest fleets in town run 32, 14 and 9 power units with 25, 19 and 10 drivers respectively, according to FMCSA’s carrier census. If you are clearing out several units from a fleet of that size, list each truck’s VIN and where it is parked, and we can plan to take them in one visit.
Inspected trucks and their build years
Thirty-eight Jonesville trucks were pulled over for checks from September 2024 to August 2026, and FMCSA roadside inspection records put their median model year at 2016.5. Those same inspection records show roughly 45 percent of the trucks at ten or more model years old, and we buy trucks from across that whole spread.
Whatever year your truck is, the inspection reports it has collected at roadside are useful to have with you when you reach out. A clean set of photos taken in daylight, with the dash showing, does the rest.
Hill Street office
Hill Street and the Virginia DMV
The Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles runs its DMV Customer Service Center - Jonesville at 195 Hill Street, Jonesville, 24263, only 0.3 miles from the middle of town. If your title has gone missing, a replacement is handled through the agency’s DMV Customer Service Centers and DMV Select offices, and this one is close enough to walk to.
Sort out the replacement before the pickup; we buy a truck on a title in your name. Bring your registration and identification to the Hill Street counter, and once the new title is in hand, tell us and we will set the collection date.
Cattle country and the Andover yard
Lee County held 629 farms when USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture was taken, with cattle, sheep and horses leading the list. Livestock haulers and farm trucks parked on those properties can be collected right where they are; just tell us which gate to come through and whether a trailer stays with the truck.
Jonesville counted 542 jobs in 2023 by the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts, and County Business Patterns lists 4 construction establishments for the area. Twenty-four miles to the north-east, the North American Rail Network marks the Andover rail yard; if your truck shuttles loads up to that yard, tell us which end of the run it is parked at.
