We pull old boats out of Greenville backyards all the time. Some came with the house when someone inherited the property and didn't want the liability. Others sat through a season or two with no buyers, and the storage lot bill climbed faster than the owner could sell it. A dead motor with a repair quote that exceeded the hull's value. That's usually the moment someone calls.
We handle the junk boat start to finish, from title work through the tow and everything after. The crew works Greenville and runs jobs in Metcalfe often enough that a pickup in Metcalfe can stack with a Greenville call the same afternoon. Missing paperwork does not stop the job, details on the Mississippi page.
What's covered
What boat removal covers in Greenville
We handle the full removal of any vessel in Greenville, from the initial pickup through final disposal. Jobs start around $250. Most calls come from three situations: a boat sitting on a dead trailer in someone's driveway, a storage lot where it's been taking up space for years, or a marina slip that needs to turn over. We bring a heavy-duty trailer, winch equipment, and whatever rigging the vessel needs to come off safely. After we load it, the boat goes to our yard or the processor, where it's dismantled responsibly. Boats are dismantled at our yard or the processor, never on site. The same route runs through Winterville and Stoneville, so if you're in either of those areas, pickup timing often works the same day. The process steps below show how scheduling works.
Boat length, condition, location in Greenville, and any access notes: gated property, narrow driveway, in-water slip. Photos speed up the quote.

Get a fixed quote the same day
Flat fee covering pickup, transport, and disposal at a licensed facility. No per-hour charges, no fuel surcharges added later.
3
Schedule the removal in Greenville
We coordinate with the marina or property owner. The pickup window is confirmed the day before, and the crew calls when they are an hour out.
4
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.
5
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 Mississippi pricing section.
Common questions about Greenville boat removal
How much does boat removal cost in Greenville?
The pricing section above is the honest answer: a starting point, then four things that move it. Size, location, condition, distance. Photos of your boat in Greenville get you a firm number the same day.
Is boat removal ever free in Greenville?
Free removal in Greenville 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 Greenville?
Mississippi does title boats, despite a common myth otherwise. Either way, missing paperwork does not stop a Greenville pickup. The legal section on the Mississippi page covers what applies and what we need from you.
How fast can you pick up a boat in Greenville?
Usually within days, not weeks. You get the pickup window the day before and a call when the truck is an hour away. If it has to be this week, say so when you call.
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, 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 Greenville?
Every kind that shows up in Greenville: bowriders, pontoons, sailboats, jon boats, jet skis. Condition is not a filter. Missing engine, holed hull, a decade of leaves inside, we still take it.
