Dale's take on Appleton

Hansons Boat Removal handles boat transport companies across Appleton and the surrounding area. Whether you're moving a Sea Ray after purchase, shipping a vessel to seasonal storage, or getting a boat to a repair destination, we manage the full haul. Our transport company operates a fleet sized for everything from small fishing boats to larger yachts. The service covers local runs through Kaukauna and Harrison, plus longer distances by the mile. Every boat gets photographed before departure and tracked to its destination. No surprises, no hidden fees, no damage.

My crew hauls the vessel door to door with our truck and trailer, boat hauling from Appleton driveways and marina slips. Jobs in Menasha often stack with a Appleton call, so the tow schedule moves fast. A boat bought without its paperwork sorted can still be moved, details on the Wisconsin boat hauling page.

A job we ran in Appleton

Celebrity 190 removal Appleton WI

Appleton, WI: 19 ft Celebrity Gone in One Morning

A 19 ft Celebrity 190 bowrider sat on flat trailer tires in Appleton, its windshield long gone and the hull full of rainwater that had turned the interior into a stagnant mess. The owner had stopped using it years back, but kept putting off the call. When he finally did, the boat was stuck in a tight residential yard with the trailer wheels sunk into soft ground, and no way to tow it out without risk of getting bogged down or tearing up the driveway.

How boat hauling in Appleton works

  1. 1

    Send photos, dimensions, and both ZIP codes

    Hull length, beam, and height, both the pickup ZIP in Appleton and the drop-off. Photos of any tight access, gate widths, or slope get the quote right the first time.

  2. 2

    Get a flat quote the same day

    One number covers loading, transport, oversize permits, fuel, and door-to-door delivery. No hourly, no fuel surcharges added later at the curb.

  3. 3

    Schedule the pickup window in Appleton

    We confirm the date and a two- to four-hour arrival window the day before. The driver calls when the truck is an hour out so nobody stands around waiting.

  4. 4

    Load, lash, photograph, and transport

    The crew rigs the boat to the trailer, checks tie-downs and lights, and photographs the load before the wheels turn. Oversize permits, if needed, are already in hand.

  5. 5

    Delivery and photos at the drop

    At the drop the boat comes off the trailer under our own hands. You get the same photo record at delivery.

    Insurance runs load-to-unload. Certificate of coverage available before booking, not after something goes wrong.

The starting number at the top of this page is real. Distance, hull size, and season move it from there. Full ranges and the per-mile rule live on the Wisconsin boat hauling pricing section.

Common questions about Appleton boat transport

How much does boat hauling cost in Appleton?
Depends on distance, hull dimensions, and season. The pricing section above lays out the rates. Photos, both ZIP codes, and dimensions get you a flat quote that holds through the day.
How much is per mile to transport a boat?
Short runs cost more per mile than long ones — same loading work, less mileage to spread it across. The pricing above shows how it lands in Appleton routes.
Can you move a 40 ft boat?
Yes. Hydraulic trailers handle hulls that size, and oversize paperwork stays on our end, not yours. A larger vessel needs extra lead time to line up the trailer and route.
Are you the actual hauler or a broker?
We run the trip. Our crews, our trailers, no bid board. The driver's name and number are in your hand before pickup.
Is my boat insured during transport?
Coverage runs from the moment it loads to the moment it comes off the truck. Certificate before booking, photos both ends.
Do I need a permit to move my boat, and who handles it?
Wider loads need an oversize permit and our team pulls it before the truck leaves. You never file paperwork or contact a state office. That cost sits inside the flat quote already.
How far in advance should I book boat hauling in Appleton?
Aim for two or three weeks ahead. Spring launch and fall haul-out weeks fill first. Rush jobs happen sometimes if a truck is already routed nearby.
