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

Barely 1.6 miles north-west of Rivanna, the Charlottesville Plant pulls crushed stone from the ground, as recorded by the Mine Safety and Health Administration. A dump truck or tri-axle that hauls aggregate out of that pit may well be parked at the plant gate or in a yard close by when you sell it, so tell us who controls access and we will arrange the pickup with them.

Further out, RED HILL QUARRY appears in Mine Safety and Health Administration records 11.7 miles west, another crushed-stone operation on the far side of Charlottesville. If your truck splits its days between the two pits, send the VIN, a few photos of the cab and the body, and the address where it sleeps at night.

Thirteen miles east of town, the SANSOM MINE & MILL site is recorded by the Mine Safety and Health Administration as an industrial-mineral mine. Trucks that move product from a mill site often carry their own site passes and inspection sheets; keep those with the title and hand them over at pickup.

Down to the south, at 19.1 miles, James River Slate Company Inc runs a dimension-stone quarry according to the Mine Safety and Health Administration. A flatbed or a lowboy that carries cut slate from that site can be collected from where it stands, so the only thing you need to bring us is the paperwork and a contact on the ground.

EAST CHARLOTTESVILLE, a rail yard 5.8 miles west of Rivanna, is mapped in the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. Day cabs that shuttle loads to and from a siding usually have a short, regular route; tell us the yard it works and the hours someone can meet us there.

The North American Rail Network also shows STRATHMORE, a second yard, 18.7 miles to the south. A tractor based nearer Strathmore than Rivanna does not need to make the trip north for us to see it; give us its location and we plan the visit around that spot.

Rivanna Station, a military installation in Bureau of Transportation Statistics listings, lies about 11.2 miles up the road to the north. If your truck is kept on or near a secured site, sort out gate access before the visit, or move it to a public lot where we can reach it without a pass.

Either way, have the registration card and the title together, plus any service records you kept, so the person meeting us can hand everything over in one go.

Around Rivanna and the rest of Albemarle County, USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 866 farms, with cattle, potted flowering plants and horses at the top of the list. Stock trailers, horse haulers and box trucks running plants to market all fit the trucks we purchase, and a farm truck parked in a barn lot is as easy for us to collect as one parked on pavement.

If the truck is titled to the farm rather than to you, tell us whose name is on the title before we come out, so the right person can sign.

Rivanna held 640 jobs in 2023 by the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts (LODES), a small workplace base beside the quarry. Separately, 13 construction establishments in the area show up in the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns, which is where dump bodies, stake trucks and small crane rigs tend to be registered.

A builder closing out a contract or trimming equipment can sell one truck or several at once. Send a list with each VIN and the address of the yard, and say which trucks still have their titles in hand.

Replacement titles here come from the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles, which issues them through its DMV Customer Service Centers and DMV Select offices. From Rivanna, the nearest is the DMV Customer Service Center - Charlottesville at 2055 Abbey Road, Charlottesville, 22911, about 4.2 miles away.

If you cannot find the title, start the replacement there before you call us, and tell us it is in progress; a lien on the truck should be noted too, so the lender’s release can travel with the sale.
