I've pulled plenty of old boats out of Reedley backyards. Some came with the house when someone inherited the property and had no idea what to do with it. Others sat through an estate cleanout after a family member passed, and nobody wanted to deal with the paperwork or the hull rot. One guy had listed his boat for a season, got no offers, and decided he'd rather have his driveway back than keep waiting.
We handle the full job in Reedley from start to finish. Load the junk boat, tow it out, sort the title work, and handle everything on the California side. Jobs in Parlier often stack with a Reedley call, so we run them the same afternoon. Missing paperwork does not stop the job, details on the California page.
What's covered
What boat removal covers in Reedley
We handle every vessel removal situation Reedley produces: boats sitting on dead trailers in driveways, abandoned craft in storage lots, and equipment left on blocks in backyards. Jobs start around $250. Our crew arrives with a flatbed, hydraulic lift, and all rigging gear to load safely without damage to your property. The same route runs through Minkler and Kingsburg, so we move through Reedley efficiently. Once loaded, boats are dismantled at our yard or the processor, never on site. No mess left behind, no fluid spills on your concrete. The process steps below show how scheduling works.

Crew handles the haul and dismantle
Loading, lashing, transport, and offload at the processor. Permits pulled if the load is oversize. Hull cut down on site when the trailer will not fit the load.

Destruction documentation
You receive proof of disposal, title-release paperwork, and the hull ID record. Useful for insurance close-out.
Aluminum, motors, hardware and salvageable fiberglass are routed to recyclers first. Only what a facility refuses ends up in a landfill.
The starting price at the top of this page is real. Size, where the boat sits, condition, and distance move it up from there. The full breakdown lives on the California pricing section.
Common questions about Reedley boat removal
How much does boat removal cost in Reedley?
Cost in Reedley starts where the pricing above starts, and the boat itself sets the rest: size, where it sits, condition, and the haul. Send photos and the ZIP, the number you get is the number you pay.
Is boat removal ever free in Reedley?
Free removal in Reedley depends on what the boat still has going for it. Salvage value covers some jobs entirely. We look at photos, tell you straight which case is yours, then schedule.
Can you remove a boat without a title in Reedley?
Yes. California titles boats. And missing paperwork is one of the most common things we see in Reedley. What we need from you is on the California page, in the legal section.
How fast can you pick up a boat in Reedley?
Most Reedley jobs are scheduled within a couple of days. The window is confirmed the day before, and the crew calls when they are an hour out. Rush jobs depend on the route, call early.
Do I have to be there for the pickup?
No. Out-of-state owners are half this business. The crew documents the pickup with photos, you approve, and the paperwork closes out remotely.
Can you take the trailer too?
Yes. The trailer usually goes with the boat, and its condition does not matter. If it rolls, we tow it. If it does not, it rides on the truck.
What kinds of boats do you take in Reedley?
Any of them. Fiberglass cruisers, aluminum fishing boats, pontoons, sailboats, jet skis. No engine, flat tires, full of leaves and rainwater, still yes. If it was supposed to float, we haul it.
