What boat transport costs
Boat prices vary too much to publish one range. The length, whether it rides on its own trailer and the route set the price. Send the details in the form and we quote your route.
How it works
- Quote. Tell us the pickup and delivery ZIP codes, the vehicle and your dates.
- Carrier assigned. We book a licensed carrier and send you the driver's name and phone, the insurance certificate, MC and DOT numbers.
- Pickup. Door to door where the truck can reach. Most carriers run 40-foot-plus trailers, so a large parking lot nearby often works best.
- Delivery. You check it over and pay the balance to the driver.
Questions
Do I need my own trailer?
No. We book transport for boats on their own trailer and for boats without one. Tell us which in the quote.
Do you ship jet skis?
Yes. In the form, pick PWC as the vehicle type.
How much does boat transport cost?
It depends on the length, whether the boat has its own trailer and the route. We don't publish a range because it varies too much. Send the details and we quote your route.
When do I pay?
The deposit is charged by card, and your agent tells you when. The balance is paid to the driver after delivery.
Can the price change after I book?
Your price is written into your contract and into the carrier's contract. Nobody, the driver included, can ask for more for the job as described.
Is it insured on the truck?
The carrier's cargo cover is included in the price. Once a carrier is assigned, you get its insurance certificate, MC and DOT numbers, and the driver's name and phone.
