Janine was very professional and courteous and coordinated the entire process. Paul picked up the boat and was also very professional and courteous. It really could not have been any easier. They helped us out big time. I would highly recommend their services!!
Good experience with this service. Much more straightforward process than I imagined and very consistent communication once I accepted their bid for our boat removal. Picked up a day early and delivered photos to ensure the pickup was completed before charging. Definitely on the higher end of pricing, but worth it for their professionalism and efficiency. Janine was excellent to work with.
Such a fantastic experience; was able to tow away my busted boat AND broken trailer the NEXT DAY. Very communicative and helpful the whole process through. Thanks again!
This was an issue where I sold the boat several years ago and the new owner never registered it and then dumped in in the Stick Marsh. FWC Pulled it out and tracked it to me as the last registered owner.(Always keep your paperwork forever) This company jumped on it and got the boat out of the area on the same day. I guess it was no joke getting this 25 footer onto the flatbed. It took a couple of hours. The kept in touch with me. Sent me photo proof of the removal, contacted FWC regarding the boat. They sent a photo of the boat in the landfill. The fee was 00.00, but should have been much higher considering the amount of time and work they put in. I am forever grateful to the company for their quick action. Definitely would recommend them for an boat removal.
Great service all around!
Janet was great in arranging the pick up! Everyone was professional and timely. Great experience

Thank you, U.S. Boat Removal... you are the BEST!!
