Gravel at Lewisville, stone up north
The Mine Safety and Health Administration registers Lewisville Pit, a sand and gravel operation, 4.4 miles north-west of Hockinson. A tandem dump or transfer rig that loads at that pit can stay where it is parked between hauls; send us the yard location and photos of the box, the tailgate and both sides of the cab.
Two crushed-stone quarries sit to the north in the Mine Safety and Health Administration register: Permanent Jaw Crusher # 2 at 9.2 miles and Courtney Pit at 12.2 miles. Hockinson owners whose rock trucks run those quarry roads should note the truck’s VIN and the name on the title before calling; every purchase starts with those two details.
If a truck splits its week between Lewisville and the northern quarries, tell us where it overnights. That is the address our driver plans around, and a quiet weekday at the home yard usually suits a collection better than a busy pit gate.
Hockinson builders and their flatbeds
Hockinson’s 2023 workplace tally in the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts reaches 982, and construction trades fill 143 of those positions, or 14.6 percent. Builders and site contractors here run flatbeds, dump trucks and service bodies, and any of those can be sold with a title, current registration and a set of clear photos.
County Business Patterns, published by the Census Bureau, counts 89 construction establishments for Hockinson. Many are small outfits where the truck is registered to the business, so the person signing the title should be someone with authority to sign for that company.
Transportation and warehousing holds 79 of those 982 jobs, or 8 percent, per the same LEHD release. A box truck or tractor from that line of work qualifies too; if a lender still holds the title, have its name and the payoff letter ready when you reach out.
Port of Vancouver USA and two rail yards
Port of Vancouver USA lies 4 miles south-west of Hockinson in the Bureau of Transportation Statistics port listing. Day cabs that shuttle cargo from its terminals often sit in a lot near the river, and we can collect there once you tell us who opens the gate.
Farther out on the same bearing, the North American Rail Network maintained by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics shows the VANCOUVER rail yard at 11.5 miles and VANCOUVER TERM #2 at 12.3 miles. A drayage tractor that pulls boxes between those yards and the port should come with its registration card and any recent service invoices you keep.
VANCOVER STOP and the Vancouver fuel racks
The Energy Information Administration lists VANCOVER STOP, a petroleum product terminal, 11.1 miles west of Hockinson, and a second terminal named VANCOUVER at 12.4 miles south-west. Fuel tankers and the tractors that pull them out of those racks are on our list of trucks we purchase.
For a tank truck, gather the tank’s inspection certificates and the title together before contacting us. If the certificates have gone missing, describe what product it carried and which rack it loaded at, and we will work from there.
Between October 2024 and August 2026, inspectors stopped 84 Hockinson-linked trucks whose median model year, in FMCSA roadside inspection records, is 2019. That spread runs from late-model tractors to older straight trucks, and every one of them can be sold the same way: VIN, title, registration, photos.
In those federal inspection records, 36.9 percent of the Hockinson trucks were ten or more model years old. Whatever the year on yours, read the odometer and the engine hours before you get in touch, since we ask for both numbers together.
Clark County nurseries, dairies and Ecology guidance
USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture records 1,927 farms across Clark County, led in sales by propagative material, milk and cattle. Nursery stake trucks, bulk milk tankers and cattle haulers working Hockinson’s farms can be picked up right at the barn or the greenhouse lot.
Guidance from Washington’s Department of Ecology lists enforcement of the Advanced Clean Trucks rule and the Heavy-Duty Low NOx Omnibus as paused, with its updated regulatory guidance for both in force. For a seller in Hockinson, the paperwork stays simple: the title, the registration and the keys.
Where a title has been lost, a duplicate comes from the state’s title agency, and having it in hand before pickup lets the sale close cleanly. You can send the VIN and photos while that request is pending.
