Boat removal · Dunnellon & Rainbow River country
That old river boat, finally gone
Dunnellon is a river town. Between the Rainbow, the Withlacoochee and Lake Rousseau, most properties around here have some kind of watercraft on them — and plenty have one that hasn't touched water in years. The jon boat under the oak with a soft transom. The pontoon on blocks behind a Lake Rousseau place. The rack of kayaks the kids outgrew two houses ago. At some point it stops being a boat and starts being the thing you mow around.
The Junk Sharks removes boats and watercraft all over Dunnellon. We come out, look the vessel over, quote one flat number, and then handle the whole job — loading or towing, cutting the hull down if it won't move in one piece, hauling, and disposal of both the boat and the trailer. You don't lift anything, borrow anything, or spend a Saturday finding out where a fiberglass hull is even allowed to go. Book online in about 60 seconds or call or text (352) 581-2576, and the boat that's been sitting for a decade is finally gone — often the same day you call.

Straightforward pricing
What boat removal costs in Dunnellon
Boat removal in Dunnellon starts around $149 and goes up from there based on three things: the size of the vessel, what it's made of, and how much teardown it takes to get it out. A single kayak or a small jon boat sits at the low end. A big fiberglass cruiser that has to be cut into sections costs more, because there's more labor and more disposal weight in the job.
Here's the part that matters: we don't guess at a number over the phone and then revise it in your driveway. We come out, look at the boat and the access, and give you an exact, flat, all-in price before any work starts. That figure covers the loading or towing, any cutting required, the haul, and the disposal or recycling of the boat and the trailer both.
And it doesn't move afterward. Flat trailer tires, a hull that's soaked up ten years of rain, a gate barely wider than the beam — none of it gets tacked on once the crew is working. If you like the number, that's the number. If you don't, you've lost nothing but ten minutes.

Questions
Boat removal FAQs
Still not sure? Call (352) 581-2576 — we will give you a straight answer and a flat price.
Book Boat RemovalThe trailer has flat tires and won't roll. Can you still take it?
Yes. Trailers that won't roll are routine for us — flat tires, seized bearings, rusted frames, even trailers sunk into sand or grass. We load them instead of towing them when we have to, and there's no extra charge for it. The flat quote you get on-site already accounts for the trailer's condition, and it leaves with the boat whether it moves on its own wheels or not.
I can't find the title to the boat. Is that a dealbreaker?
Usually not. A title isn't always required for a boat that's being disposed of rather than sold — it depends on the vessel and the situation, so we walk you through exactly what's needed for yours before the job is scheduled. Plenty of the boats we remove around Dunnellon are estate finds or long-abandoned hulls with no paperwork in sight, and we help owners sort that out rather than turning the job away.
The boat is behind a fence on soft ground near the river. Can you reach it?
Almost certainly. Tight gates, narrow side yards, soft riverfront ground and boats that have settled into the dirt are everyday conditions on Dunnellon jobs. If the hull can't come out in one piece, we cut it into sections right where it sits and carry it out. Access never changes the price after the fact — we see the approach when we quote, and that flat number is the one you pay.
Can you do same-day boat removal in Dunnellon?
Often, yes. We're open seven days a week, 6am to 8:30pm, and we run regular routes through the Dunnellon area, so same-day pickup is frequently possible — especially if you call or text (352) 581-2576 early in the day. If you're up against a code-enforcement or HOA deadline, tell us the date when you book and we'll do everything we can to beat it.
What happens to the boat after you haul it off?
It gets broken down and handled responsibly, not dumped. Aluminum from jon boats and pontoons, steel from trailers, and motor components are pulled for recycling, while fiberglass and the rest go to proper disposal. The quote you approve covers all of it — the boat and the trailer both — so there's nothing left for you to deal with once the truck pulls away.
Do you take kayaks, canoes and jet skis, or only full-size boats?
We take it all. Single kayaks, canoes, paddleboards, jet skis and other personal watercraft are all fair game, right alongside the fishing boats, pontoons and sailboats. Small craft sit at the low end of our pricing, and if you have several — a rack of tired rental kayaks, say — we can clear the whole lot in one visit and quote it as a single job.
