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

Martin Marietta’s Fieldale Quarry, a crushed-stone operation on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s register, sits 4.2 miles west of Martinsville. If your dump truck or tri-axle hauls stone out of Fieldale, it may well be parked near the pit or at a yard along the way when we collect it, so give us that address rather than your home one.

Eden Plant lies 13.8 miles east, and the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists it as a crushed-stone quarry too. A truck that splits its days between Fieldale and Eden can be picked up at either end; tell us which site it sleeps at and who holds the gate key.

Quarry tickets, scale slips and any MSHA site-access paperwork help us see where a stone truck has worked. Photograph the body, the tailgate, the frame and the cab, and keep the title and current Virginia registration in one folder ready for the handover.

Of the 129 active Martinsville carriers in FMCSA’s census, 82 list general freight as a cargo they haul. Those are mostly dry vans and box trucks, and a seller with one of them should note the trailer type and the VIN on the tractor before calling us.

Machinery and other big single items are a cargo for 24 operators in FMCSA’s federal register of carriers. In the same census, 17 carry motor vehicles. Sheets, coils and rolls of metal are listed by 15, by FMCSA’s figures. Lowboys, car haulers and flatbeds with coil racks all fit what we buy; list the deck length and any chains, binders or racks that go with the truck.

If your rig carried several of these cargo types, say which one it did most. That single detail tells us what kind of trailer, hitch or body to expect when we arrive in Martinsville.

FMCSA’s carrier census splits Martinsville’s operators into 83 interstate carriers and 46 that stay inside Virginia, with 59 running private fleets that move their own goods. A private-fleet truck often sits at the company’s plant or warehouse, so we arrange pickup with whoever manages that lot.

Driver records filed with the federal carrier census show 209 drivers working within 100 miles of their base and 148 going beyond it. A long-haul tractor may be out of town when you decide to sell; tell us where it will be parked, and we collect it there instead of waiting for it to return.

For the 38 carriers here that report mileage, the median truck covered 17,150 miles in a year by the FMCSA census. Write down the odometer reading when you photograph the dash, and send it with the VIN.

Roadside inspections between November 2024 and August 2026 covered 105 Martinsville trucks, and FMCSA’s inspection records put their median model year at 2019. Roughly 37 percent of the Martinsville tractors and straight trucks stopped in those FMCSA inspections carried a model year a decade or more back.

For a Martinsville seller, the year shown on the Virginia title settles which model year we record. Have the title in hand, and if you keep service or inspection records, add them to the photos so the truck’s history travels with it.

Manufacturing accounted for 924 of Martinsville’s 8,670 jobs in 2023, or 10.7 percent, on the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts. Box trucks and straight trucks that shuttle between plants and suppliers are often titled to the business, so the person signing needs authority to sell for that company.

County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau show 52 construction establishments in the city and 3 in warehousing. The LEHD figures attach 141 construction jobs and 95 wholesale trade jobs to the same year. A contractor’s dump truck or flatbed may be parked on a job site; give us that location and a contact who will be there.

FMCSA’s census logged 12 new carriers registering in Martinsville in 2025 and 7 the year before. If you are one of them and are leaving trucking or changing equipment, have your DOT number and the truck’s title ready when you reach us.

The three biggest fleets on record here run 81, 48 and 24 power units under FMCSA registration. Whether you are selling one tractor or several from a yard of that size, list each VIN separately so every truck gets its own pickup plan.
