I've pulled plenty of old boats out of La Vergne backyards. Some came with the house when someone bought the place, and the previous owner's problem became theirs overnight. Others sat through a season on the market with no takers, the asking price dropping every month until the owner just wanted it gone. One call, and we handle the whole thing.
We show up, load the junk boat, and tow it out start to finish. Jobs in Smyrna often stack with a La Vergne call, so the crew can knock both out the same day. Whether it's an estate cleanout, a backyard vessel that's been rotting for years, or a storage lot full of unwanted hulls, we've got the experience. Missing paperwork does not stop the job, details on the Tennessee page.
What's covered
What boat removal covers in La Vergne
We handle the full removal of your vessel from La Vergne, which means we assess the boat, arrange transport, and manage the disposal or recycling. Most boats we pull come from a driveway on a dead trailer, a storage lot, or a marina slip, and we bring a flatbed truck, the right rigging, and a crew that knows how to load without tearing up your property. Jobs start around $250. Once the vessel is loaded, we haul it to our yard or the processor, where it's dismantled responsibly. The same route runs through Walterhill and Murfreesboro, so we move in and out of La Vergne regularly. Boats are dismantled at our yard or the processor, never on site. The process steps below show how scheduling works.

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