Selling a truck in North Yelm? Tell us about it and we'll take it from there.

Sand and gravel, eastbound

Two gravel pits within a few miles of North Yelm

C&V Roy Pit, a sand and gravel operation 3.3 miles east of North Yelm, is on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list, and a second pit the agency calls Roy sits 5.4 miles out in the same direction. A tandem dump or a transfer truck that hauls from those pits may well be parked at the pit gate or a yard along the road toward Roy when you call us. Tell us which of the two it works from and we will arrange the collection there.

Around Roy, a pit truck’s paperwork may include scale tickets and a body spec sheet. If you have the body manufacturer’s plate details or a photo of the hoist tag, send it along with shots of the cab, the bed and the VIN plate, so the truck we arrive to collect matches the one you described.

Stone from two faces

Crushed stone south at Columbia Granite and east at Kapowsin

South of town, Columbia Granite appears in Mine Safety and Health Administration records as a crushed-stone quarry 12.1 miles away. Rock trucks and belly-dump tractors that run between that face and job sites in the valley are the kind of equipment we purchase from owners here.

Kapowsin Quarry, another crushed-stone site the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists 19.4 miles east, rounds out the stone haul around North Yelm. If your truck alternates between Kapowsin and Columbia Granite, give us the address where it is kept when idle, plus a contact who can open the quarry gate for us.

Rail yards past Skookumchuck and the Seaport intermodal ramp west of North Yelm

Westward, the North American Rail Network maintained by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics shows two Skookumchuck rail yards at 9.1 and 9.4 miles from North Yelm. Day cabs that shuttle loads to and from those yards can be collected where they are parked; there is no need to bring the tractor back into town first.

Further along the same direction, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics records the Seaport rail intermodal ramp 14.8 miles west. For a sleeper or day cab that has pulled containers off that ramp, have the registration and the VIN ready on your first call, since every other question we ask builds on those two.

North Yelm tankers bound north-east to Truck-Rail Handling Inc

To the north-east, Truck-Rail Handling Inc is listed by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics as a liquid bulk terminal 21.4 miles from North Yelm. Tractors set up for tank trailers in and out of a terminal like that are on our list, with or without the trailer.

When a tanker tractor is part of the sale, tell us whether the trailer goes with it and send any terminal entry or inspection paperwork you kept. Those records travel with the photos and save a round of questions about where the unit has been working.

Dairy and nursery haul

Dairy, nursery and cattle trucks around North Yelm

Around North Yelm, USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 1,108 farms in Thurston County, with milk, propagative material and cattle as the top products. Milk tankers, nursery stake trucks and livestock haulers from those operations are trucks we buy straight from the farm.

A farm truck usually stays on the property between seasons, and that is where we collect it. Send a pin or a gate description for the farm lane, mention whether the truck sits in a barn or out in a field, and include the plate number from the registration card.

Crystal Springs Rd NW, the licensing counter for North Yelm titles

The Washington State Department of Licensing handles lost titles, and its vehicle and vessel licensing office nearest North Yelm is Yelm Community Services at 624 Crystal Springs Rd NW, Yelm, 98597, about 1.3 miles from town. Bring your identification and the registration to that counter if the title has gone missing before you sell.

If the title still lists a lender, ask the Washington State Department of Licensing office in Yelm what it needs to clear that from the record. Let us know the status when you first contact us, and we will plan the rest of the sale around it.

Advanced Clean Trucks and Low NOx status for trucks kept in North Yelm

Washington adopted the Advanced Clean Trucks regulation through its Clean Vehicles Program, and the Department of Ecology’s guidance lists enforcement as paused. That same Department of Ecology document shows enforcement paused for the Heavy-Duty Low NOx Omnibus under WAC 173-423-081 as well.

For a North Yelm owner, the in-force item is the Department of Ecology’s update to regulatory guidance for Advanced Clean Cars II, Advanced Clean Trucks and the Heavy-Duty Low NOx Omnibus. Keep the engine family label readable in your photos so the model year and certification are on record when we collect.
