Dale's take on Boston

A job transfer out of Boston fell through the same week a cabin cruiser was supposed to go up for sale, and the boat has been sitting in limbo ever since, waiting on a date that keeps changing. Two docks down, a sailboat is facing the same holdup, its owner relocating for work before a buyer ever got the chance to look at it.

My crew runs boat hauling out of Boston with our own truck and trailer, loading the boat and running it door to door on routes that also cover Chelsea and Revere. Oversize paperwork is ours before the wheels turn. A boat bought without its paperwork sorted can still be moved. Details on the Massachusetts boat transport page.

What's covered

What boat hauling covers in Boston

Boat transport in Boston means unsticking a sale that a relocation put on hold, moving the vessel on its own timeline instead of the owner's. Storm pulls and slip changes round out the relocation runs that make up most of the work here. 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 driveway to the next stop. Allston and Brighton sit on the same routes. Send the boat's dimensions and where it needs to land. The process steps below show how scheduling works.

A job we ran in Boston

Sea Ray 268 Sundancer removal Boston MA

26 ft Sea Ray Removal in Boston, MA

The boat was a 26 ft Sea Ray 268 Sundancer, a fiberglass cabin cruiser with a soft transom and bottom paint peeling off in sheets. No trailer under it. It had been blocked up in a Suffolk County driveway for years, the kind of spot where a boat gets parked one fall with plans to fix the transom over the winter, and the winter just keeps happening.

How boat hauling in Boston works

  1. 1

    Send photos, dimensions, and both ZIP codes

    Hull length, beam, and height, both the pickup ZIP in Boston 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 Boston

    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 Massachusetts boat hauling pricing section.

Common questions about Boston boat transport

How much does boat hauling cost in Boston?
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?
Short runs cost more per mile than long ones — same loading work, less mileage to spread it across. The pricing above shows how it lands in Boston routes.
Can you move a 40 ft boat?
Yes. Hydraulic trailers handle hulls that size, and oversize paperwork stays on our end, not yours. A larger vessel needs extra lead time to line up the trailer and route.
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?
Coverage runs from the moment it loads to the moment it comes off the truck. Certificate before booking, photos both ends.
Do I need a permit to move my boat, and who handles it?
Wider loads need an oversize permit and our team pulls it before the truck leaves. You never file paperwork or contact a state office. That cost sits inside the flat quote already.
How far in advance should I book boat hauling in Boston?
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.
