Goose Creek and Leesburg quarry runs
Goose Creek Plant, a crushed-stone quarry the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists about 14.5 miles south-east of Lovettsville, is the closer of two stone operations down that road. A dump truck or tri-axle that hauls aggregate out of there may well be parked at a job site rather than at home, so give us the exact spot when you get in touch and we will collect it from there.
Leesburg Plant sits roughly 15.8 miles south-east of town, according to Mine Safety and Health Administration records, just over a mile beyond Goose Creek. If your truck has run stone from either pit, send photos of the body, the hoist and the cab, plus any scale tickets or service logs you kept, so we know the truck’s work before we see it.
Sixteen freight haulers
Flatbeds, timber and equipment loads from Lovettsville
Of the 25 Lovettsville outfits in FMCSA’s carrier census, 16 carry general freight, 7 move machinery and large objects, 6 haul logs, poles, beams and lumber, and 5 carry farm supplies. Many register more than one cargo type, so a flatbed tractor here may have moved equipment one week and timber the next; tell us what it pulled and which trailer went with it.
Interstate authority covers 16 of those carriers and the other 9 stay inside Virginia, the federal census shows, while 14 run as private fleets moving their own goods. A private-fleet truck often carries a company’s records with it, so ask the office for the registration card and maintenance file before you list it with us.
Short hops, long lanes
Where a local truck spends its day
All 25 carriers report drivers working within 100 miles of base, and 23 of them also send drivers past that ring, according to FMCSA’s census filings. A tractor that runs both local and long lanes may be out on the road when you decide to sell, so pick a day it is back in Lovettsville and tell us where it will be parked.
On FMCSA’s census, the nine Lovettsville carriers that filed yearly mileage sit at a median of 6,550 miles a truck. Write the odometer reading down from the dash and include a clear photo of it, so the figure on the title paperwork and the one we see match.
Fleets of eight units or fewer
According to FMCSA’s carrier census, the top local outfit runs 8 power units and 4 drivers, while two others each field 4 units and 3 drivers. In a shop that size the owner usually holds every title in one folder, which makes it simple to sell one truck or several at once.
If you are retiring two or three units from a fleet like that, list each VIN, the body or trailer type and where each truck sits. We arrange collection around the yard, the farm or the job site, and you do not need to move anything to a central lot.
Duplicate titles at the Leesburg DMV center
Lovettsville owners who need a duplicate title go to the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles, whose DMV Customer Service Centers and DMV Select offices issue them. Closest to town is DMV Customer Service Center - Leesburg, at 400 Fort Evans Road NE, Leesburg, 20176, about 12.5 miles from Lovettsville.
Order a replacement there before you sell if the original title is missing or still shows a lienholder. Bring the lien release, your registration and photo ID, and keep the new title with the truck so the sale can close once we inspect it.
Cattle, corn, horses and twenty contractors
Around Lovettsville the farm trucks haul cattle, corn and horses, which USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture names as the top products across 1,332 farms in Loudoun County. A grain truck, livestock hauler or horse-trailer tractor parked behind a barn is one we collect where it stands; just tell us how to reach the gate.
County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau records 20 construction establishments in the Lovettsville area, while LEHD job counts for 2023 put local employment at 525. Contractors here selling a dump, flatbed or service truck should gather the title, registration and any inspection stickers or service invoices before calling.
