Dale's take on Cibolo

I get calls from people in Bexar County who bought a sailboat years ago and thought they'd use it more. The mast came down one fall and never went back up. Now it's taking up slip fees at a marina, or it's sitting in dry storage on stands, and the monthly charges add up faster than anyone expected. Other times someone inherited a place with a sailboat already there, or they picked up an old boat with a lake house and never actually sailed it. The rig failed a survey, the sale fell through, and now they're stuck with a sailboat that won't move and won't pay for itself.

We handle sailboat disposal start to finish in Cibolo and the surrounding area. If you're in Schertz or near Randolph AFB, same trip for us. We come out, assess the rig and the hull, get it off the trailer or out of the slip, and haul the old sailboat away. You don't need a clean title or all the paperwork in order. We handle that. The full breakdown of how we do this is on the sailboat disposal details page.

What's covered

What sailboat disposal covers in Cibolo

Sailboat disposal in Cibolo means we handle the full breakdown. The mast comes down, standing rigging is cut or salvaged, and the keel gets pulled at our yard with its scrap value credited against your cost. Usable sails, winches, and hardware are spoken for before the fiberglass hull goes to the processor. Whether your vessel is sitting in a driveway, storage lot, or on a lift, we run the haul-out and manage any marina or boatyard conversation so you don't have to. We're also equipped for pickups in nearby Universal City and Selma. The process steps below show how scheduling works from your first call to the day we load it.

How sailboat disposal in Cibolo works

  1. 1

    Send photos, rig status, and the pickup ZIP

    Length, keel type, whether the mast is up or already down, and access notes for the yard or slip in Cibolo. Photos of the rig and any winches or hardware set the number.

  2. 2

    Get a firm quote back the same day

    One number covers rig-down through disposal. Keel scrap value is credited off the total up front, not owed back after.

  3. 3

    Schedule pickup and marina coordination in Cibolo

    If the boat is in a slip we run the marina office and the crane call. On stands or on a trailer we set a date and window; the crew calls when they are an hour out.

  4. 4

    Rig-down and load

    Mast unstepped, standing rigging cut or salvaged, spreaders and boom stacked and strapped. Usable sails, winches, and hardware come off before the hull leaves.

  5. 5

    Keel out, hull processed, documentation

    The keel is unbolted or cut at our yard, weighed, and sold to the metal recycler; the fiberglass hull is cut down and routed to a processor. You get proof of disposal and the hull ID record.

    Metal keel, rigging, winches, and salvageable hardware are routed to recyclers first. Only what a facility refuses ends up in a landfill.

The starting number at the top of this page is real. Length, keel type, and whether the boat sits in the water or on the hard move it from there. Lead keel scrap value is credited off — details on the Texas sailboat disposal pricing section.

Common questions about Cibolo sailboat disposal

How much does it cost to get rid of a sailboat in Cibolo?
Cost tracks length, keel type, and whether the boat sits in the water or on the hard. The pricing section above shows the range. Lead keel scrap value gets credited off the number, and a firm quote comes back from photos.
Can you take a sailboat straight out of a marina slip?
Slip-out pickups are one of the most common calls. Crane time, marina paperwork, and the mast conversation happen on our side. You approve the schedule and we handle the rest.
Is the lead keel worth anything?
Lead keels carry real scrap value, and that value comes off your price up front. Iron brings less. Photos of the keel and the boat get us to the right number before we schedule.
Should I just donate the sailboat instead?
Donation makes sense for a boat with survey value — a runnable diesel, sound decks, a rig that will not fail on inspection. Send photos and I will tell you which way yours leans; if the numbers work for a charity, I will say so first.
What happens to the mast, rigging, and sails?
The mast comes down at the boat or at our yard, then metal recycling handles the rigging. Sails and hardware in decent shape come off first and are spoken for before the hull is cut.
Do I need a title to dispose of a sailboat in Cibolo?
Titling questions belong on the Texas boat-removal page's legal section. On our side, missing paperwork does not stop the job — proof of disposal comes back to you when the work is done.
What if the boat has been sitting on stands for years?
Years on stands is our most common call. Seized hardware, stained hulls, corroded rigging — none of that changes whether we take the job. The quote already assumes the boat has been sitting.
