Choosing the Right Boat transport Method


There are two main methods of Boat transport - by road or by sea. If you're hauling a Boat within the same region, road transport is the way to go. However, if you need to transport a Boat over long distances, sea or river transport may be more suitable. Specialist Boat haulers in Wakefield will inspect your vessel, plot courses, & check shipping forecasts to ensure safe transport.


Preparing Your Boat for Transport


Before transporting your Boat, it's essential to prepare it properly to prevent damage, leakage or loose ends. Make sure to check the condition of your Boat, remove valuables, empty the bilge, water, refuse stores & fuel. Disconnect the battery, tidy up cables & make sure all accessories & life jackets are secure. If you're transporting a sailboat, remove all winches & rigging from the mast & provide padding for the mast's tie-down points.

Couriers on Shiply are able to provide all levels of service and can help pack your items, just ensure you inform them of your needs.

Will My Goods Be Tied Up Securely?

Transport providers will almost always tie up an item in the transport vehicle, as the risk of damage from moving around during transit is high. You should always confirm safety precautions and packing needs with transport providers before accepting a quote.

Can Items Be Taken Upstairs?

Yes, items can be taken upstairs if needed, and can also be assembled. Transport providers on Shiply are happy to provide these services, but you should ensure that you are mentioning these requirements in your listings as it may mean a second person is required for the move.

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. If your journey is strictly overseas then it may be cheaper to drive to the port yourself, but boat transporters will always be able to collect your boat, wherever it is.

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.
