I've pulled a lot of old boats out of Clovis backyards. Some came with the house when someone inherited a property and didn't want the liability. Others sat there because the owner listed it for a season, got no offers, and gave up. A few had motors that quit, and the repair quote was bigger than the hull was worth. You end up staring at dead weight in your own yard, and that's when the call comes in.
We handle the whole thing from start to finish. That means the junk boat gets loaded, the trailer comes with it if there's one, and we haul it out. Jobs in Cannon AFB often stack with a Clovis call, so timing works out. Missing paperwork does not stop the job, details on the New Mexico page.

What boat removal covers in Clovis
We handle any vessel in Clovis, whether it's sitting on a dead trailer in your driveway, stored in a lot, or abandoned at a marina. Jobs start around $250. Our crew shows up with a heavy-duty trailer and winch, we load the boat, and we haul it out. Boats are dismantled at our yard or the processor, never on site. Most Clovis pickups are straightforward,we've pulled plenty of them,and the same route runs through Texico and Melrose, so if you're in that stretch, the logistics work the same way.

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.

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