WHY BIG PHIL’S IS MAPLE RIDGE’S TOP CHOICE FOR BOAT REMOVAL

Fast, Hassle-Free Boat Removal

Got an old boat taking up space in your driveway, yard, or dock? We’ll take care of it—fast. Our team offers same-day or next-day boat removal in Maple Ridge, so you don’t have to deal with the hassle any longer. We show up on time, handle all the heavy lifting, and haul it away without delays. No stress, no waiting—just quick and professional service.

Responsible Disposal – We Recycle What We Can

We don’t just tow boats to the landfill and call it a day. If your old boat has parts that can be reused or recycled, we make sure they go to the right place. We work with local recycling facilities to properly dispose of fiberglass, metal, and other materials in an environmentally friendly way. If anything can be salvaged, we ensure it gets a second life instead of ending up as waste.

Transparent Pricing, No Hidden Costs

We keep things simple. Our pricing is based on the size of the boat and the work involved in removing it—no hidden fees, no last-minute surprises. Before we even start, we provide you with a clear, upfront quote so you know exactly what to expect.

You Don’t Lift a Finger – We Handle Everything

Whether your boat is sitting on a trailer, stuck in a backyard, or abandoned at a dock, we handle the entire removal process. Our crew does all the heavy lifting, so you don’t have to stress about a thing. Just point us to the boat, and we’ll take care of the rest, leaving your space clutter-free.

Local, Trusted Service

Big Phil’s is a family-owned business, and we take pride in serving the Maple Ridge community. We’re not a big corporate chain—we’re a local team that believes in honest work, friendly service, and treating every customer with respect. When you call us for boat removal, you’re working with a crew that cares about getting the job done right.

HOW OUR BOAT REMOVAL PROCESS WORKS

Step 1: Get a Fast, Upfront Quote

Need an old boat gone? Start by giving us a call or filling out our online form. Tell us about your boat—its size, condition, and location—and we’ll provide a no-obligation quote. No hidden fees, no surprises, just a fair price upfront so you know exactly what to expect.

Step 2: Schedule a Pickup That Works for You

We know that getting rid of a boat isn’t always easy, so we make it simple. We offer flexible scheduling, including same-day or next-day boat removal in Maple Ridge. You pick a time that fits your schedule, and we’ll be there to handle the job.

Step 3: Boat Removal & Transport

Once your pickup is scheduled, we bring the right equipment to get the job done. Our fleet includes tow trucks, flatbeds, and specialized lifting equipment for larger boats. Our trained crew carefully removes the boat from your property without causing damage. Even if your boat doesn’t have a trailer, we have the tools and expertise to haul it away safely.

Step 4: Eco-Friendly Disposal and Recycling

Dumping an old boat into a landfill isn’t our style. If your boat has usable parts, we make sure they’re salvaged or recycled. Fiberglass, metal, and other materials are processed responsibly at local recycling facilities. If your boat is still in decent shape, we work with donation centers to give it a second life. Our goal? To clear your space while protecting the environment.

TYPES OF BOATS WE REMOVE

No matter the size, type, or condition, we have the equipment and expertise to haul it away safely and efficiently.

Old & Unwanted Boats

Is your boat just sitting there collecting dust, taking up space, or becoming an eyesore? We’ll take it off your hands and free up your property.

Personal Watercraft (Jet Skis, Canoes, Kayaks)

It’s not just big boats we remove. If you have smaller personal watercraft that are broken, unwanted, or simply no longer in use, we can haul them away too.

Damaged or Sinking Boats

A boat that’s beyond repair or partially submerged can be a nightmare to deal with. We specialize in removing boats that are sinking, storm-damaged, or abandoned.

Fiberglass & Aluminum Boats

No matter the material, we can tow it. Fiberglass, aluminum, wood, or composite—if you need it gone, we can take care of it.

Commercial & Industrial Boats

Workboats, barges, pontoons, and other large vessels can be difficult to move, but not for us. We have the proper equipment and experience to remove large-scale commercial boats.

Boat Trailers

Got a rusted-out or broken trailer that’s no longer usable? We remove trailers too! Whether it’s attached to a boat or not, we’ll tow it away and dispose of it properly.

FAIR & HONEST BOAT REMOVAL PRICING – NO SURPRISES

Getting rid of an unwanted boat shouldn’t be complicated or come with hidden fees. At Big Phil’s, we keep pricing simple, upfront, and easy to understand. You’ll know exactly what to expect before we get started—no last-minute surprises, just straight-up honesty.

What Affects the Cost of Boat Removal?

Size & Weight of the Boat

The bigger and heavier the boat, the more work it takes to haul away. Small boats are usually a quick job, but larger ones may need special equipment like cranes or flatbeds, which can affect pricing.

Condition & Accessibility

If your boat is sitting in an open driveway or on a trailer, removal is quick and easy. But if it’s half-submerged, stuck in a tricky spot, or falling apart, it might take extra time, effort, and equipment to get it out safely.

Disposal & Recycling Costs

We follow proper disposal methods to keep things eco-friendly. Boats made of fiberglass, aluminum, or wood have different recycling and landfill costs, which factor into the final price.

Discounts for Multiple Removals

Need more than just a boat taken away? If you’ve got an old trailer, extra junk, or even another boat, we offer bundle pricing to help you save while clearing out your space.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How does the boat removal process work?

Our boat removal process starts with checking your boat and where it is. Next, we give you a quote. If you agree, we set up a time to remove the boat and take care of the disposal process.

Are there any costs involved in the boat removal service?

The cost of boat removal varies. It depends on the size, condition, and location of the boat. The difficulty of the removal also matters. We aim to keep our prices competitive. Our goal is to provide cost-effective solutions for you.

How do I prepare my boat for removal?

Please take out all your personal things, dangerous items, and papers from the boat before we get there. You can email us photos and details to help us get ready.

Do you remove all types of boats, regardless of condition?

Yes, we remove almost any type of boat, from a small personal watercraft, yacht, motorboat or large commercial vessels. Whether your boat is old, damaged, or just taking up space, we can haul it away. If it contains hazardous materials like oil, fuel, or lead-based paint, we follow strict disposal guidelines to ensure proper handling.

How do you determine the value of the boat before removal?

The value of the boat depends on its condition, make, model, and potential for resale, recycling, or parts salvage. While some boats have little to no resale value, others may qualify for compensation if they contain valuable materials. We assess each case individually and provide a fair quote before moving forward.

Do you provide boat removal services outside of British Columbia?

Our primary service area covers British Columbia, including coastal regions and inland locations. However, we also work with clients on Vancouver Island and can assist with larger-scale removals. If your boat is located on federally regulated waters, we ensure compliance with federal government guidelines, including proper disposal of hazardous waste and adherence to Canada’s marine safety and navigation regulations.

Can you remove a sunken or partially submerged boat?

Yes, we specialize in removing sunken or partially submerged boats. If your boat is stuck in the water, we use specialized equipment to lift and tow it safely. Additional costs may apply depending on the difficulty of the removal, but we’ll assess the situation and provide a fair quote before starting.

Do you offer environmentally friendly boat disposal?

Absolutely! We follow strict environmental regulations to ensure all boats are dismantled and disposed of properly. We recycle as many materials as possible, including fiberglass, metal, and salvageable parts, while safely disposing of hazardous waste like fuel, oil, and batteries.

Can you remove abandoned boats on private or public property?

Yes, we handle the removal of abandoned boats from both private and public locations. If a boat is left on your property or washed up on shore, we can assist in legally removing and disposing of it. In some cases, you may need to check local regulations before proceeding, but we can help guide you through the process.

Do I need to be present for the boat removal?

No, you don’t have to be there as long as all necessary arrangements are made ahead of time. We ask that you remove any personal belongings and hazardous items beforehand. If you can’t be on-site, we can coordinate the pickup with clear instructions and keep you updated throughout the process.
