We pull old boats out of Moses Lake backyards all the time. Someone inherits a house with a 22-foot cabin cruiser parked behind it, hasn't run in eight years. Or an estate cleanout brings us to a property where the boat's been sitting so long the trailer's rusted through. Another call comes in because the storage lot bill climbed to fifteen hundred a year and the junk boat isn't worth hauling to a mechanic. We've seen it all in this part of Washington.
Hansons Boat Removal handles the whole thing start to finish. We load the vessel, tow it out, and handle every document so the title transfers clean. Jobs in Cascade Valley often stack with a Moses Lake call the same afternoon. Missing paperwork does not stop the job, details on the Washington page.

Common questions about Moses Lake boat removal
How much does boat removal cost in Moses Lake?

Is boat removal ever free in Moses Lake?

Can you remove a boat without a title in Moses Lake?
Yes. Washington titles and registers boats. And missing paperwork is one of the most common things we see in Moses Lake. What we need from you is on the Washington page, in the legal section.
How fast can you pick up a boat in Moses Lake?
Most Moses Lake jobs are scheduled within a couple of days. The window is confirmed the day before, and the crew calls when they are an hour out. Rush jobs depend on the route, call early.
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. The trailer usually goes with the boat, and its condition does not matter. If it rolls, we tow it. If it does not, it rides on the truck.
What kinds of boats do you take in Moses Lake?
Any of them. Fiberglass cruisers, aluminum fishing boats, pontoons, sailboats, jet skis. No engine, flat tires, full of leaves and rainwater, still yes. If it was supposed to float, we haul it.
