Dale's take on San Lorenzo

We pull a lot of old boats out of San Lorenzo backyards. Some came with the house when someone inherited the property and never figured out what to do with it. Others sat through a storage lot bill that kept climbing until the owner realized the boat wasn't worth saving. A dead motor with a repair quote that cost more than the hull itself. An HOA letter about the junk boat parked too close to the property line. That's how most calls start.

We handle the full tow from start to finish, title work included. We work San Lorenzo and jobs in Ashland often stack with a pickup the same afternoon. The crew loads it, hauls it out, and handles the paperwork on the California side. Missing documentation doesn't stop the job, details on the California page. Whether it's an estate cleanout or a vessel that's been rotting in place, we get it done.

What's covered

What boat removal covers in San Lorenzo

We handle the full removal of your vessel from San Lorenzo, whether it's sitting on a dead trailer in your driveway, parked at a storage lot, or taking up a slip at a local marina. Jobs start around $250. The crew shows up with a flatbed, winch gear, and whatever rigging the boat needs to load safely. We handle the title paperwork, get the vessel onto the truck, and haul it out. Boats are dismantled at our yard or the processor, never on site. San Lorenzo sits on a route we run regularly, and the same route runs through Cherryland and Castro Valley, so scheduling is straightforward. The process steps below show how scheduling works.

How boat removal in San Lorenzo works

  1. 1

    Send photos and the pickup ZIP

    Boat length, condition, location in San Lorenzo, and any access notes: gated property, narrow driveway, in-water slip. Photos speed up the quote.

  2. 2

    Get a fixed quote the same day

    Flat fee covering pickup, transport, and disposal at a licensed facility. No per-hour charges, no fuel surcharges added later.

  3. 3

    Schedule the removal in San Lorenzo

    We coordinate with the marina or property owner. The pickup window is confirmed the day before, and the crew calls when they are an hour out.

  4. 4

    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.

  5. 5

    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 San Lorenzo boat removal

How much does boat removal cost in San Lorenzo?
The pricing section above is the honest answer: a starting point, then four things that move it. Size, location, condition, distance. Photos of your boat in San Lorenzo get you a firm number the same day.
Is boat removal ever free in San Lorenzo?
Free removal in San Lorenzo 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 San Lorenzo?
California titles boats. Either way, missing paperwork does not stop a San Lorenzo pickup. The legal section on the California page covers what applies and what we need from you.
How fast can you pick up a boat in San Lorenzo?
Usually within days, not weeks. You get the pickup window the day before and a call when the truck is an hour away. If it has to be this week, say so when you call.
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, and most people want it gone with the boat. Flat tires, rusted frame, seized hubs, none of it matters, we winch the boat and load the trailer separately if it will not roll.
What kinds of boats do you take in San Lorenzo?
Every kind that shows up in San Lorenzo: bowriders, pontoons, sailboats, jon boats, jet skis. Condition is not a filter. Missing engine, holed hull, a decade of leaves inside, we still take it.
