Dale's take on Schertz

I get calls from people in Schertz who bought a sailboat ten, fifteen years ago. The mast came down one fall and never went back up. The slip fees kept coming, month after month, and the boat sat there. Or someone inherited a place on a lake with a sailboat nobody in the family sails, and now it's taking up space in dry storage behind the house, the rigging seized up, the survey failed before the sale even started. An old sailboat becomes a problem you look at every time you walk past it.

We handle sailboat disposal from Schertz all the way through Cibolo and Randolph AFB on the same trip. I come out, we assess what you've got, quote you a number, and if you say yes, we handle it start to finish. The rig comes down, the boat gets towed out, and you're done with it. Missing paperwork, no title, unclear ownership from the estate. None of that stops the job. Details on how we handle each part are on the sailboat disposal page.

What's covered

What sailboat disposal covers in Schertz

Sailboat disposal in Schertz means we handle the entire vessel from wherever it sits. The mast comes down and standing rigging is cut away or salvaged. We pull the keel at our yard and credit its scrap value against your cost. Usable sails, winches, and hardware get spoken for before the fiberglass hull goes to the processor. For boats in the water, we run the haul-out and handle the marina conversation so you don't manage vendors. Whether your sailboat is on a driveway in Schertz, at a boatyard in Universal City, or in storage in Selma, the process is the same. The steps below show how scheduling works.

How sailboat disposal in Schertz 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 Schertz. 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 Schertz

    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 Schertz sailboat disposal

How much does it cost to get rid of a sailboat in Schertz?
Length and keel type set most of it. Lead scrap value credits back against the number. Send photos of the boat and the rig and the quote comes back the same day, firm.
Can you take a sailboat straight out of a marina slip?
Yes — slip pickups are routine. We call the marina, book the crane, and pull the mast on the ramp if that is where it makes sense. One point of contact all the way through.
Is the lead keel worth anything?
Yes. Lead recovers more per pound at scrap than iron, and the value gets credited against the price. We confirm keel type from photos before we quote because it moves the number more than almost anything else.
Should I just donate the sailboat instead?
Donation works when the boat still has resale value. A stalled restoration or a stripped hull almost never qualifies. Send photos and I will tell you honestly which route makes sense.
What happens to the mast, rigging, and sails?
We unstep the mast, coil or salvage the standing rigging, and pull winches, cleats, and any usable sails before the hull leaves. Metals get recycled and sails get sold or donated when they are still good.
Do I need a title to dispose of a sailboat in Schertz?
Missing paperwork does not stop the pickup. What Texas requires for the paperwork side lives on the Texas boat-removal page, in the legal section. We handle what we can from our end.
What if the boat has been sitting on stands for years?
A boat on stands for a decade is exactly what this service is for. Nothing about the condition surprises the crew. The quote is built for boats that need the work we are already doing.
