Distance - The distance your boat needs to be transported will significantly impact the price. If the boat only needs to be transported domestically (within the US), the most likely method will be through inland transportation on a trailer, which is typically more affordable than international travel. If the boat needs to travel internationally, this can be more costly. There are several options available. Roll-on/Roll-off (RO/RO for short) is the most frequently used method of international boat transport and involves your boat staying on a trailer for the duration of the trip. If your boat is a standard size, you may want to consider an enclosed container that would be put on a large shipping vessel. This can often be a more affordable international boat transport method. If it's a large boat that you need to transport internationally, a flat rack can often be secured onto a vessel, which your boat can be strapped into while in its own personal cradle. Lastly, there's always the option of submersion when looking at international boat delivery options, which simply involves your boat being loaded and unloaded from the water.


Boat Size - The size of the boat you want to transport can also greatly impact the pricing. For example, standard-sized boats can be transported internationally using enclosed containers, whereas larger boats cannot. The size of the boat can also affect which routes a Boat transport Westfield company can take.

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?

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 Travel With My Goods?

What If I Need To Cancel My Booking?

If you have accepted a quote and paid the deposit but wish to cancel the delivery, then you should first inform your chosen transport provider that you no longer require the delivery. You should then contact us at to have your deposit refunded.

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. Note that editing details of your listing after publishing will result in active quotes being voided, so you will have to wait for new quotes to come in. If you have already accepted a quote and need to change the address either within Westfield, Indiana or outside the area, please let your transport provider know and contact us at .

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.
