Gravel on both sides
Getchell Pit to the north-east, Menzel Lake Gravel to the east
Getchell Pit, a sand and gravel operation the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists 1.3 miles north-east of Lochsloy, is close enough that a dump truck parked there is practically in town. If your truck hauls out of that pit, tell us whether it sits at the pit gate or at your home yard, so we know which address to send the driver to.
Menzel Lake Gravel lies 4.7 miles east on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s records, a second sand and gravel site on the Lochsloy side. Trucks that run between these two pits are usually dump trucks, end dumps or truck-and-pup combinations; tell us which body is mounted and send a photo of the bed raised as well as the cab.
Crushed stone, farther out
High Rock Quarry to the south
Seventeen miles south, the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists Heidelberg Materials High Rock Quarry as a crushed-stone quarry. A tractor or dump truck that hauls rock from there may spend its nights at the quarry rather than in Lochsloy, and we can collect it wherever it is parked if you give us the address and gate hours.
Rock trucks that work a quarry this far out often have a logbook or dispatch sheets showing their runs. Keep those with the title, along with any annual inspection paperwork, so the truck you describe and the truck we pick up line up.
Builders and site crews
A construction town by the job figures
Construction accounts for 42.8 percent of the jobs counted in Lochsloy by the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for 2023, out of 304 in total. Builders and site contractors in that trade use dump trucks, flatbeds, water trucks and service bodies, and any of those is something we buy from an owner here.
If your truck has worked job sites around Lochsloy, have the registration, the title and a few clear photos of the body and equipment ready before you contact us. With those in hand, the questions we ask stay about the truck rather than about missing papers.
West toward the water
Delta Yard, Everett’s port and Marysville
The North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, puts DELTA YARD 7.7 miles west of Lochsloy and the DELTA yard 7.8 miles out on the same heading. A day cab that shuttles freight to those rail yards is one we can collect at the yard, at a lot near it or back home in Lochsloy.
Everett, 10.5 miles south-west, is listed as a strategic seaport by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, which also lists a military installation at Marysville, 7.5 miles north-west. If your tractor pulls chassis or flatbeds to the Everett waterfront, give us the VIN and a picture of the odometer to start, and we will follow up with any other questions.
Barn lots and tankers
Tankers and stock trucks from Lochsloy’s dairy country
Around Lochsloy, USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 1,418 farms across Snohomish County, with milk, cattle and corn as the top products. Farm owners here may have a milk tanker, a livestock hauler, a grain truck or a feed body sitting in a barn lot, and we buy those trucks too.
A farm truck is often registered differently from a for-hire rig, so look out the registration card along with the title before you call. If the truck is parked behind a barn or down a field road, tell us how a tow truck reaches it.
Lost papers
Replacing a title through the Washington State Department of Licensing
Titles in this state are issued by the Washington State Department of Licensing, which works through vehicle and vessel licensing offices. The Washington State Department of Licensing lists VILLAGE LICENSE AGENCY, INC. - Frontier Village Area, at 9327 4th St NE Ste 7, Lake Stevens, 98258, about 5.1 miles from town, as the nearest to Lochsloy.
If the title has gone missing, start a replacement there before you sell, and keep the receipt. Bring the registration and your ID; the licensing office can tell you what else the department needs for a commercial truck.
Ecology guidance, paused and in force
Clean truck guidance from Ecology for a Lochsloy owner
Washington’s Department of Ecology guidance covers the Advanced Clean Trucks rule, as adopted in the state’s Clean Vehicles Program, and enforcement of it is paused. The same Department of Ecology guidance lists the Heavy-Duty Low NOx Omnibus standards under WAC 173-423-081, and enforcement of those is paused as well.
An update to the regulatory guidance covering Advanced Clean Cars II, Advanced Clean Trucks and the Low NOx Omnibus is in force, according to the same Ecology publication. If you are unsure how these rules touch your truck in Lochsloy, send us the model year and engine details with your photos.
