Why Us
Why Choose Trash Can Willy's for Boat Removal
Your boat is done, for whatever reason: swamped, old, bad motor, cracked hull, or you are just tired of seeing it rot away every year. Boats are the one job we handle through our boat disposal partner rather than our own junk removal crew. We arrange the removal, we quote it, and the partner takes the boat away and destroys or scraps it. All types, with or without trailers.
One call arranges the whole thing
All boats under 30 feet long get removed and disposed of, including boats with no trailer at all. You do not have to go and find a yard, a hauler and a scrapper yourself: you tell us about the boat, we price it, and our partner comes and takes it. One rule worth knowing before you call: boats over 20 feet must have road worthy trailers under them to be moved.
Salvage that works for you
If there are items of value that go with the boat, we discount the removal. As much as possible is salvaged and recycled off every boat rather than landfilled. We even buy good boats.
Licensed, insured and fast
The partner who moves the boat is licensed and insured for boat removal, and we stay the one number you call. Fill out the quote form and we typically respond within an hour or two.
We recycle or donate up to 85% of what we haul
In 2025 alone we recycled more than a million pounds of scrap metal and passed thousands of usable items on, much of it to the Epilepsy Foundation, Goodwill, the Salvation Army and local soup kitchens. When a job turns up a meaningful amount of that, it comes off your price, so the sorting works in your favor twice.
Local. Veteran-owned. No franchise fees.
Steve built Trash Can Willy's on the same principles he learned in the military: show up when we say we will, honor our quote, communicate clearly and leave your property better than we found it. We're local, not a franchise. No call centers, corporate runaround or franchise fees built into your price. We're BBB A+ Accredited, licensed and insured, and a portion of every job supports Wounded Warrior Family Support. Fair pricing. Great communication. No stress. Just a job done right.

Great experience every time we use Trash Can Willy's. The guys showed up on time and were very polite and personable. They managed to pack 30 years of junk into one truck with no room to spare!
Our Process
How boat removal works
Five steps, and the first one is a form or a text message.
Step 1: Send the form or text us
The fastest way to start is the quote form, and we typically respond within an hour or two. Call or text 603-490-2177 if that is easier.
Step 2: We ask questions
Where is the boat? How large is it? What is wrong with it? Is any of it worth salvaging? Is it on a road worthy trailer? Does it still have fluids in it? Include as much of that as you can, because it is what the partner needs to price the job.
Step 3: We give you a guesstimate
Until we see the boat we are making our best educated guess, so you have an idea of the cost. It is not an exact science and it is subject to change, exactly like a junk removal quote over the phone. Some people understate the scope to try to lock us in at a lower price. That will not work. Just like a junk removal, we verify the exact pricing upfront only after seeing the boat.
Step 4: We set a time
A boat is typically picked up and disposed of within 48 hours of your contacting us. That is the goal and we try hard to hit it. It is a scheduled slot rather than the two hour window a junk removal gets, because it is a different truck and a different trade.
Step 5: We confirm the price and get it out of there
We confirm the exact price with you upfront. Agree to it and our boat disposal partner comes out in the time frame we discussed, takes the boat, and breaks it down or scraps it. Boat jobs are the one service we arrange through a partner rather than our own crews, and we stand behind the price and the schedule.
Our Team
Who moves the boat
The people below quote your boat, book it and stand behind the price. The boat itself goes with our boat disposal partner, licensed and insured, with the trailer and the equipment to move something that has not rolled in years.

FAQ
Boat removal questions, straight answers
How big a boat can you take?
Anything under 30 feet long. Boats over 20 feet must be sitting on a road worthy trailer to be moved.
Can you take a boat with no trailer?
Yes. A boat with no trailer under it is still a job we can arrange.
Will you pay me for it?
Sometimes. We even buy good boats. If the boat, motor or trailer carries real value we credit it against the removal, and whatever can be salvaged comes off the price either way.
How long does it take?
Boats are typically picked up and hauled away within 24 to 48 hours of your contacting us. Seeing the boat is what sets the timeline, not the hauling.
Who actually turns up for the boat?
Our boat disposal partner. Boats are their own trade, so we do not send a junk removal crew and a box truck to one. We take the call, ask the questions, give you the price and book the date, and the partner brings the right truck, takes the boat and destroys or scraps it.
How does the quote work on a boat?
You describe the boat and we give you a guesstimate, so you have an idea of the cost. It is our best educated guess until somebody sees the boat, it is not an exact science, and it is subject to change, exactly like a junk removal quote over the phone. The exact price is confirmed before the boat moves, and once you agree to it, it does not change. Understating the scope to lock in a lower number does not work, because the price is set on what is actually there.
Do you beat other quotes?
Yes. Bring us any written estimate from another company and we beat it by up to 10%. And every week we draw one customer's completed job and refund it in full, so keep your receipt.
How do I pay for a boat removal?
You settle up with us, not with the partner. Credit, debit, cash, or estate, certified and business checks. No personal checks. Nothing is taken up front and you get an emailed receipt.
