TRAILER & TRUCK DISPOSITION, DISPOSAL & RECYCLING
The Yard Is for Working Equipment
A trailer or truck stops producing value the day it's retired. The real estate underneath it doesn’t.
TRS gets end-of-life fleet equipment off the property and through the right disposition process without turning removal into another job for maintenance or operations teams.
We coordinate pickup, transportation, processing, disposition, disposal, recycling and applicable documentation.
Get the space back. Get people focused on the equipment that still generates profit.
Retired Equipment Shouldn’t Become a Permanent Part of the Yard
Fleet operators, terminal managers and maintenance teams have enough to keep moving.
When obsolete trailers and trucks sit for weeks or months, they take up space needed for active equipment, staging, maintenance and day-to-day operations. Then someone must spend time finding a buyer, arranging a haul, coordinating processing, and figuring out what happens afterward.
TRS takes that burden with the asset.
Whether it's one unit or a yard full, one accountable point of contact gets the process moving and manages it through the required disposition.
Typical turnaround: within 7 days of a buy/removal request.
More Than the Trailer Sitting in the Back Row
TRS coordinates removal and disposition for end-of-life fleet and material handling assets, including:
Trailers | Trucks & Tractors | Box Trucks | Forklifts
Dollies | Lead-Acid Batteries | Material Handling Equipment
Tell us what’s sitting on the property.
We’ll help determine the appropriate path for getting it out of the operation and through the required disposition.
Sometimes There’s Value Left in the Asset
A retired truck may also contain core components, used parts or assemblies that can retain value because they may be rebuilt or remanufactured rather than treated as scrap.
Engines | Transmissions | Differentials & aXles
Sometimes There’s Value in the Equipment.
Sometimes the Value is Getting It Out of the Way.
Not every retired trailer or truck reaches the end of the road the same way.
Depending on the asset and your requirements, TRS may purchase the equipment or manage its removal and disposition.
THE PRIORITY IS GETTING IT OUT
When the job requires removal and a specific outcome, TRS coordinates transportation, processing, disposition and applicable documentation.
THERE'S VALUE IN THE ASSET
When purchase is the right model, TRS takes the equipment off your hands and manages what happens next.
Full destruction for one account. Resale-eligible processing for another.
You tell us what needs to happen. We handle the work between here and there.
110 Trailers Had to Go. Pronto.
A top-five LTL carrier was moving from its Banning, California terminal and needed 110 trailers removed within 14 days.
TRS cleared them in three.
Trailer & Truck Recycling FAQs
HOW FAST CAN TRS REMOVE RETIRED TRAILERS AND EQUIPMENT?
TRS usually performs within seven days of a buy/removal request. Timing depends on the specific job and requirements, so TRS will confirm the schedule for your assets.

Both. TRS handles individual assets as well as large, multi-asset and multi-location projects. The same level of service applies either way.
DOES TRS BUY TRAILERS AND TRUCKS?
Depending on the asset and the requirements of the job, TRS may purchase equipment or manage its removal and disposition.

TRS handles trailers, trucks/tractors, box trucks, forklifts, dollies, lead-acid batteries and other material handling equipment.
