Will My Goods Be Tied Up Securely?

Can Items Be Taken Upstairs?

Can I Change The Address Of The Delivery?

If you have not yet accepted a quote then you are able to change the address of your listing.

Do I Need To Take My Boat Anywhere?

Typically, boat transporters on Shiply will be able to pick your boat up from wherever it is located and will use special boat trailers to do so.

Can I Keep Items In My Boat During Transportation?

This will likely be up to your boat transporter's discretion, so make sure to ask! One thing to note is that the items will likely not be covered by the insurance that covers the boat, so don't leave anything in there you cannot easily replace.
