The photos sent over by the owner in Warner Robins showed a 10-foot jet ski sitting on a tiny single axle trailer. What the photos missed was the locked gate with four inches of mud around the latch and a narrow side yard where those small trailer tires were sunk past the hubs. The man bought this craft fifteen years ago thinking he would get it out on the water, but the pump was completely seized and a cracked hull let every spring rain collect inside the body.
Our crew arrived with our own rig to haul the non-running vessel away. We checked for leftover fuel and oil leaks first before moving anything. The owner pulled a shoebox out of his garage containing old registration slips, and the property owner signed the release of liability right there on the hood of our truck before we hooked up. Getting the craft past the narrow side fence took two men steering the tongue by hand while our truck stayed on firm ground. Once out of the rut, we pulled it onto our trailer and strapped it down secure for the trip down the long dirt driveway.
Usable metal hardware and electrical bits were saved for recycling, and the damaged fiberglass hull went straight to a permitted facility for proper disposal. The homeowner got his driveway back, along with the receipt showing the derelict vessel was taken for scrap.

What fifteen years of boat storage taught me
Typically, we see small trailer tires fail completely when owners try to drag old watercraft through wet clay after years of sitting. Spring thunderstorms in Georgia fill open hulls fast, rusting the steel frames from the inside out and turning dry soil into deep mud. Before our crew arrives, clearing overgrown vines away from the tongue and unchaining any rusted gate locks saves a lot of time during the boat removal process.

How pricing works for boat removal in Warner Robins
Is boat removal free?
No. Boat removal is a paid service. Our pricing starts at a $400 minimum service charge, which varies based on the size of the boat, where it sits, and its overall condition. You can send us photos for a free estimate before we come out.
Can I get rid of a boat without title?
Yes, we can handle boat removal and disposal without a clean title in many situations. The property owner must sign a release of liability before our crew hooks up to the trailer or dismantling starts on the site.
Where we remove boats near Warner Robins, GA
We pick up boats across Houston County, in Centerville. April showers create standing water inside open hulls left along the waterfront or in backyards, making the heavy fiberglass much harder to winch up onto a trailer when the surrounding dirt softens into deep clay.
