Dale's take on Boulder

The trailer behind a ski boat in a Boulder driveway snapped an axle on the mountain pass last month, nowhere close to being built for that much weight at altitude. A family two blocks over ran into the same wall trying to move their sailboat to a new storage spot, their current setup rated for something far smaller.

My crew runs boat hauling out of Boulder with our own truck rated for the hull, loading the boat and running it door to door on routes that also cover Gunbarrel and Lafayette. Oversize paperwork is ours before the wheels turn. A boat bought without its paperwork sorted can still be moved. Details on the Colorado boat transport page.

What's covered

What boat hauling covers in Boulder

Boat transport in Boulder means matching a vessel to equipment actually built for mountain grades and its real weight, not whatever trailer was on hand. Barn and yard pickups lead here, with long hauls and dealer transfers filling out the rest. Our boat movers bring a truck and trailer sized for the hull, load it, lash it, and photograph it before it rides insured from a storage lot to the next stop. Longmont and Louisville sit on the same routes. Send the boat's dimensions and where it needs to land. The process steps below show how scheduling works.

How boat hauling in Boulder works

  1. 1

    Send photos, dimensions, and both ZIP codes

    Hull length, beam, and height, both the pickup ZIP in Boulder and the drop-off. Photos of any tight access, gate widths, or slope get the quote right the first time.

  2. 2

    Get a flat quote the same day

    One number covers loading, transport, oversize permits, fuel, and door-to-door delivery. No hourly, no fuel surcharges added later at the curb.

  3. 3

    Schedule the pickup window in Boulder

    We confirm the date and a two- to four-hour arrival window the day before. The driver calls when the truck is an hour out so nobody stands around waiting.

  4. 4

    Load, lash, photograph, and transport

    The crew rigs the boat to the trailer, checks tie-downs and lights, and photographs the load before the wheels turn. Oversize permits, if needed, are already in hand.

  5. 5

    Delivery and photos at the drop

    At the drop the boat comes off the trailer under our own hands. You get the same photo record at delivery.

    Insurance runs load-to-unload. Certificate of coverage available before booking, not after something goes wrong.

The starting number at the top of this page is real. Distance, hull size, and season move it from there. Full ranges and the per-mile rule live on the Colorado boat hauling pricing section.

Common questions about Boulder boat transport

How much does boat hauling cost in Boulder?
Depends on distance, hull dimensions, and season. The pricing section above lays out the rates. Photos, both ZIP codes, and dimensions get you a flat quote that holds through the day.
How much is per mile to transport a boat?
There is no flat per-mile number. Loading and rigging cost the same whether the trip is short or long, so short runs cost more per mile than long ones. The rates above already account for that curve.
Can you move a 40 ft boat?
Yes. We have the trailers for it and we pull the oversize permit before the truck moves. Size alone does not stop a job — it changes the lead time.
Are you the actual hauler or a broker?
We run the trip. Our crews, our trailers, no bid board. The driver's name and number are in your hand before pickup.
Is my boat insured during transport?
Yes, from load to unload it rides on our policy. A certificate of insurance is available before you book, not after. We photograph the boat at loading and at delivery for the record.
Do I need a permit to move my boat, and who handles it?
If it needs a permit we handle it, no exceptions. You never touch a state office. All costs sit inside the number we gave you.
How far in advance should I book boat hauling in Boulder?
Aim for two or three weeks ahead. Spring launch and fall haul-out weeks fill first. Rush jobs happen sometimes if a truck is already routed nearby.
