Dale's take on Royal Oak

I've pulled old boats out of Royal Oak backyards for years. One call came from a woman who inherited a house with a fiberglass cruiser still on the trailer in the garage, no title, no clue what to do with it. Another was a guy who listed his boat for a season, got no offers, and the storage lot started charging him monthly to keep it parked. Both situations end the same way, someone picks up the phone.

We handle the junk boat start to finish in Royal Oak. The crew loads it, tows it out, and takes care of the paperwork and disposal. Jobs in Pleasant Ridge often stack with a Royal Oak call, so we move through both in one afternoon. Missing paperwork does not stop the job, details on the Michigan page.

A job we ran in Royal Oak

Catalina 22 removal Royal Oak MI

Hauling a sailboat out of a Royal Oak yard

A 22 ft Catalina 22 had been sitting in a Royal Oak driveway with its mast down and lashed to the deck for years. The swing-keel trailer underneath had flat tires and hadn't moved since the owner lost interest in sailing. He called us after a neighbor mentioned the boat was starting to look like a permanent fixture, and he was tired of explaining it to people walking by.

Common questions about Royal Oak boat removal

How much does boat removal cost in Royal Oak?
There is no flat rate, and anyone quoting one sight unseen is guessing. What your Royal Oak removal costs depends on the boat, where it sits, and the haul. The number we give you is the one we charge.
Is boat removal ever free in Royal Oak?
It happens, when the boat pays its own way. Scrap aluminum or a motor that runs can cover the trip. If yours does not have that, there is a fee, and you hear it before we book.
Can you remove a boat without a title in Royal Oak?
Michigan titles some boats, not all. Either way, missing paperwork does not stop a Royal Oak pickup. The legal section on the Michigan page covers what applies and what we need from you.
How fast can you pick up a boat in Royal Oak?
Fast. A typical Royal Oak pickup lands within a few days of the quote, with the window confirmed the day before. The crew calls an hour out so nobody waits around.
Do I have to be there for the pickup?
Not if you cannot be. We photograph the boat loaded and send it over before final payment. Paperwork happens by phone and email, wherever you are.
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 Royal Oak?
If it is a boat, yes. Fiberglass or aluminum, power or sail, running or long dead. The rough ones are most of what we do, so nothing about yours will surprise the crew.
