How does boat transport work in Minnesota?

Minnesota has over 11,000 lakes, and boat owners from Duluth to Brainerd to the Twin Cities are moving hulls every spring and fall, whether that's hauling a walleye boat from a Lake Minnetonka marina to winter dry storage in Rogers, or transporting a newly purchased pontoon from a dealer in Alexandria down to a slip in Winona. Boat Hauling in Minnesota handles those moves every season, overland by truck and trailer, door-to-door.

The problem most Minnesota boat owners run into is that anything wider than 8.5 feet needs a state-issued oversize load permit from MnDOT, and larger hulls often require a pilot car or restricted travel hours on certain corridors. Storage facilities and repair yards aren't always close to the water, either. Boat Hauling in Minnesota knows the permit process, the routes, and the restrictions. Text a photo of your boat to get a flat quote within the hour.

What does Minnesota boat transport service include?

Pricing and routes across Minnesota

Boat hauling in Minnesota typically runs $800 to $2,800 depending on distance and boat size, with routes from Duluth down to the Twin Cities and out to Bemidji handled regularly by Hansons Boat Removal. Minnesota's short open-water season means most hauls happen in a tight window, April through October, and booking fills fast once ice-out hits the northern lakes.

Permits and wide load compliance

Minnesota's DOT requires oversize load permits for any boat exceeding 8.5 feet in width, and anything over 14 feet wide needs a pilot car escort. Hansons Boat Removal pulls those permits before the truck leaves, so there's no scrambling at a weigh station on Highway 61 or I-35.

What's included in every haul

  • Any hull type and size hauled across Minnesota, from 16-foot aluminum to 40-foot cruisers
  • DOT-licensed drivers familiar with Minnesota routes and permit requirements
  • Hydraulic trailers and pro rigging for safe loading at ramps and boatyards
  • Flat-rate quotes covering permits, escorts, and fuel, with no add-ons at delivery

Common questions about boat transport in Minnesota

How much does boat hauling cost in Minnesota?

Most boat hauling jobs in Minnesota run between $2.50 and $5.00 per loaded mile, depending on the boat's size and weight. A short haul from Minneapolis to Duluth might run $400 to $700. Wider boats that need oversize permits push that number up. Hansons Boat Removal gives you a firm quote before anything moves.

Do I need an oversize permit to transport a boat in Minnesota?

Minnesota requires an oversize permit for any load wider than 8 feet 6 inches on state highways. Most boats over 20 feet trigger this. Permits are issued through the Minnesota DOT, and some counties around the Twin Cities add their own routing restrictions. Hansons Boat Removal handles all permit paperwork as part of the job.

Can you haul a boat from Minnesota to another state?

Yes. Hansons Boat Removal runs long-distance boat transport out of Minnesota regularly, including routes south to Missouri, east to Wisconsin and Michigan, and west to the Dakotas. Each state along the route has its own oversize permit requirements, and Hansons Boat Removal coordinates all of them so you don't have to track down permits state by state.

What is the maximum boat size you can transport in Minnesota?

Minnesota allows oversize loads up to 16 feet wide with the right permits and an escort vehicle. Boats over 14 feet wide typically require a Minnesota State Patrol escort on certain routes. Hansons Boat Removal has moved vessels up to 50 feet long through Minnesota, including through tighter corridors near Rochester and St. Cloud.

How far in advance should I book boat hauling in Minnesota?

Book at least 2 to 3 weeks out for standard Minnesota boat hauling. Spring is the busiest window, especially May through mid-June when owners around Brainerd, Alexandria, and the Twin Cities metro are getting boats to summer storage or new slips. Long-distance hauls crossing multiple states need closer to 3 to 4 weeks for permit coordination.

Need a Minnesota boat transport quote?

Hansons Boat Removal is licensed and ready to quote any distance, fast.
