Boat & Marine Junk Removal
on Martha's Vineyard
Here's an island problem no mainland company has a page for: the dead dinghy behind the shed, the kayaks nobody's paddled since 2019, mildewed sails, old dock sections, mooring gear, and trailers with trees growing through them. Every Vineyard yard eventually grows a pile of "boat stuff." This page covers how to get rid of it. We're Better Call Bosko - the local crew that actually has a category for this.
What to know about marine junk
• Fiberglass has its own disposal path. Old hulls and boards can't just go in a regular load - the disposal is specific, and that's our problem to handle, not yours.
• Access is often the challenge. Beach, dock, and yard access all change the plan, and low tide is sometimes part of the schedule.
• Some of it is donatable. Usable small craft and gear often find island takers before the waste stream - worth checking before you scrap it.
What we take
Dinghies, kayaks, canoes, paddleboards, and small hulls; sails, rigging, lines, and canvas; dock sections, ladders, floats, and mooring hardware; marine parts and fittings; and boat trailers in most conditions. Larger and derelict hulls are case-by-case - send photos and we'll tell you straight.
Quick answers
Can you get gear off a beach or dock? Usually - access photos tell us fast; low tide is sometimes part of it.
Do you take whole boats? Small hulls yes; larger ones case-by-case - send photos.
The trailer too? Yes, in most conditions.
How's fiberglass disposed of? Per its own path - we handle the routing.
