Quarries east and south
Courtney Pit and the crusher on the south side
Courtney Pit, a crushed-stone quarry 3 miles east of Amboy, is listed by the Mine Safety and Health Administration, as is Permanent Jaw Crusher # 2 about 3.7 miles to the south. Dump trucks and end-dump tractors that shuttle rock from those two sites often sit at the pit or at a yard nearby between loads, so tell us which one when you get in touch and we will collect from there.
Further out, the Mine Safety and Health Administration puts Lewisville Pit, a sand and gravel operation, 11 miles south-west, and Fazio Bros Sand Co Inc at 18.9 miles in that same direction. If your aggregate truck is parked at one of them, send a photo of the VIN plate and the cab along with the gate contact so the pickup can be arranged with whoever runs the lot.
Down to the river
Kalama, Vancouver and the terminals south-west
Eleven miles north-west of town, the Port of Kalama appears in the Bureau of Transportation Statistics port listings, and the Port of Vancouver USA lies 16.3 miles south. A tractor that drays between Amboy and either dock can be sold from wherever it last parked, whether that is your driveway or a lot near the water.
The Energy Information Administration records a petroleum product terminal called VANCOVER STOP about 20.1 miles south-west, and the North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, shows the VANCOUVER rail yard at 21.1 miles. Tank tractors and container haulers working that corridor qualify too; have the registration and your service records together before you call.
Machinery, logs and general loads out of Amboy
Of the 48 carriers on file in FMCSA’s census for Amboy, 22 list general freight and 21 list machinery and large objects, while 15 carry logs, poles, beams and lumber. Lowboys, log trucks and flatbed tractors all fit what we buy, so give us the trailer setup along with the tractor details when you describe it.
Eight carriers register farm supplies as cargo, and USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 1,927 farms across Clark County, with propagative material, milk and cattle leading the county’s sales. A truck that hauls feed, nursery stock or milk around those farms can be collected on the property where it works.
Thirty-two intrastate carriers and the longer runs
Thirty-two of the town’s carriers are intrastate and 16 run interstate, according to the federal carrier census, and 27 operate as private fleets hauling their own goods. Whichever kind you are, the paperwork we ask for is the same: the title, the current registration and any service history you kept.
FMCSA’s census records 69 drivers here working within 100 air miles and 21 who go beyond that radius. Thirteen Amboy carriers report mileage to FMCSA, and their trucks log a median of 19,636 miles each. If your rig is out on a run when you decide to sell, tell us where it will be parked once it comes home.
Owner-operators and small yards around Amboy
Fleet sizes in FMCSA’s carrier census top out at 9 power units and 9 drivers for one Amboy carrier, with 6 trucks and 5 drivers at the next and 3 trucks with 8 drivers at a third. We buy a single tractor or several from one yard, and a fleet owner can send one list of VINs for every truck on offer.
Two new carriers registered in Amboy during 2025 and one in 2024, according to that same federal census. Whether you started hauling last year or long before, a clear title in your name is what lets the sale close.
Amboy tractors and dump trucks pulled over on the shoulder
FMCSA roadside inspection records from September 2024 through August 2026 cover 31 trucks run by Amboy carriers, and 2015 is the median model year among them. Those same inspection records put just under 55 percent of the trucks at ten or more years old, and we take trucks from every model year in that spread.
County Business Patterns, from the Census Bureau, lists 89 construction establishments, and those firms keep dump trucks, mixers and equipment haulers on the road. Photos of the dash, the tires and both sides of the cab help us understand the truck before collection.
A duplicate title from the Battle Ground licensing office
The Washington State Department of Licensing handles replacement titles through its vehicle and vessel licensing offices, and the closest to Amboy is BATTLE GROUND AUTO LICENSE at 301 W Main St # 101, Battle Ground, 98604, about 9.7 miles away. Sort the duplicate there before the sale if the original has gone missing.
Washington’s Department of Ecology has paused enforcement of the Advanced Clean Trucks rule and the Heavy-Duty Low NOx Omnibus under WAC 173-423-081, while its updated regulatory guidance for those rules is in force. A diesel tractor registered in Amboy can still be sold to us with its title and registration as they stand.
