Dale's take on Portsmouth

I've pulled boats out of Portsmouth backyards for years. Some came with the house when someone bought the property and inherited the problem. Others sat because the owner listed it one season, got no offers, and gave up. A few had storage bills that climbed higher than the boat was worth, or a repair quote so steep it made more sense to walk away. We show up, load it, and handle what comes next.

Hansons Boat Removal handles the full job in Portsmouth, start to finish. We tow the junk boat whether it's rotting on blocks or still rigged for the water. Jobs in New Castle often stack with a Portsmouth call the same afternoon. Missing paperwork does not stop the work, we handle the title details separately. See the New Hampshire page for specifics on how that works.

What's covered

What boat removal covers in Portsmouth

We handle the full removal of any vessel from Portsmouth, New Hampshire, whether it's sitting on a dead trailer in your driveway, parked in a storage lot, or taking up a marina slip along the coast. Jobs start around $250. We bring a heavy-duty trailer, a winch truck if the boat won't roll, and whatever equipment the situation calls for. Most pickups we see are fiberglass boats that haven't run in years, aluminum rigs that got abandoned, or sailboats the marina wants gone. Once we load it, the vessel goes to our yard or the processor for dismantling, never left on your property. Boats are dismantled at our yard or the processor, never on site. We cover the same route runs through Rye and Newington, so if you're in that area, the logistics are straightforward. The process steps below show how scheduling works.

A job we ran in Portsmouth

32-foot Carver motor yacht sitting in a marina slip in Portsmouth, New Hampshire before removal

Marina Boat Removal in Portsmouth, New Hampshire

Slip fees on the New Hampshire coast do not pause for anyone's schedule. This 32-foot Carver had been tied up through a full season without the engines turning over once, the owner tangled up in a business sale that kept him out of the country for months at a stretch. The marina kept sending invoices to an address he wasn't checking, and by the time he surfaced, the balance had grown past what the boat itself was worth to him.

Common questions about Portsmouth boat removal

How much does boat removal cost in Portsmouth?
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 Portsmouth get you a firm number the same day.
Is boat removal ever free in Portsmouth?
Free removal in Portsmouth 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 Portsmouth?
New Hampshire does not title boats. Either way, missing paperwork does not stop a Portsmouth pickup. The legal section on the New Hampshire page covers what applies and what we need from you.
How fast can you pick up a boat in Portsmouth?
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 Portsmouth?
Every kind that shows up in Portsmouth: 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.
