Titles in Kentucky:Kentucky titles nearly every motorized boat (motors are not titled separately).
Dale's take on Georgetown
I see the same situations come through Georgetown all the time. Someone inherits a house with an old boat sitting in the backyard, and they've got no use for it and no idea how to move it. Or there's a junk boat that sat listed for a season with zero offers, the storage lot bill keeps climbing, and the owner finally decides to stop throwing money at something that won't sell. Either way, the boat's been sitting long enough that it's become a problem instead of a possession.
We handle boat removal start to finish in Georgetown and the surrounding area, and jobs in Midway often stack with a Georgetown call the same afternoon. We tow it out, manage the paperwork, and handle every step until it's gone. Missing paperwork does not stop the job, details on the Kentucky page.
What's covered
What boat removal covers in Georgetown
We handle the full removal of any vessel in Georgetown, from the initial haul-out through final disposal. Most calls come from driveways where a boat sits on a dead trailer, storage lots holding fiberglass and aluminum hulls, and marinas with slips we need to clear. We bring a heavy-duty trailer, straps, and a winch truck if the ground's soft or the angle's tight. Jobs start around $250. The boat goes to our yard or the processor, where it's dismantled for salvageable parts, fiberglass, and scrap metal. Boats are dismantled at our yard or the processor, never on site. We service Georgetown and the same route runs through Stamping Ground and Sadieville, so scheduling is straightforward. 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 Kentucky pricing section.
Common questions about Georgetown boat removal
How much does boat removal cost in Georgetown?
Cost in Georgetown 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 Georgetown?
Free removal in Georgetown 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 Georgetown?
Yes. Kentucky titles nearly every motorized boat (motors are not titled separately). And missing paperwork is one of the most common things we see in Georgetown. What we need from you is on the Kentucky page, in the legal section.
How fast can you pick up a boat in Georgetown?
Most Georgetown 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 Georgetown?
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.
