“The HOA gave me fourteen days to clear the garage.” That was the first thing the owner said when he called us from Amarillo. Inside sat a 21 ft Lowe SS 210 pontoon boat with a gray hull and black trim. The aluminum tubes squeezed against the side walls, leaving about three inches of room on either side of the trailer.
Our crew backed our truck up the driveway to align straight with the door. Before pulling the trailer, we pumped fifteen gallons of stale gasoline out of the fuel tank so it would not spill on the sloped concrete. Old fuel smells like varnish and stays in concrete forever if you leak it. We hooked our winch line to the tongue, guided the frame past the door tracks, and pulled the unit onto the street.
We hauled the pontoon to a metal recycling yard in Potter County that accepts aluminum hulls. Larger hulls past twenty feet take different gear and extra time in tight spaces, so we give quotes for those over the phone after learning the location. If you have an unwanted vessel in Amarillo or Randall County, call 833-658-4847.
In our experience, aluminum hulls stored inside Texas garages suffer from mildew and rusted trailer axles due to humid spring air trapped in closed spaces. As a rule, we pump out hazardous materials, remove the battery, and drain the outboard motor oil before taking any metal to a recycler.

Questions from the phone this week
How much does it cost to remove a boat?
Boat removal pricing depends on size, location, and condition. A skiff on a working trailer costs less than a sunk hull or a vessel stuck in a tight yard. We look at the setup and give you a straightforward price before we start any work.
What is the procedure for boat disposal?
We assess the site, safely tow or haul the vessel away, and manage all teardown steps. Our crew strips hazardous materials like fuel and batteries first. Then we take fiberglass to a landfill that takes fiberglass or deliver aluminum hulls to a local metal recycling facility.
Boat disposal across Randall County
Crews cover Randall County: Canyon, Timbercreek Canyon, Lake Tanglewood and Palisades. June heat pushes many homeowners to clear out outdoor storage spaces and attached bays. Neighborhood associations across the region inspect properties in early summer, which often leads boat owners to clear out old project craft they no longer use.
