Boat Trailer Removal in St. Simons Island, GA

On St. Simons a trailer ends up wherever a long, low frame would fit: down the side of a waterfront house in Harrington Landing or behind a garage out on Hampton Point at the north end. Twenty-odd feet of steel plus a tongue rarely has room to turn between a house and a fence.

Up Sea Island Road and on the bigger properties toward the north end, the driveways run long and the distance from the trailer to where our truck can stand becomes the job. Those visits run slower on purpose. A seized trailer gets winched the length of the drive instead of dragged across somebody’s lawn, and if there’s a gate, we coordinate it with whoever lets us in.

Around the Village it’s the opposite problem: older homes, almost no parking and visitors most of the year. A trailer coming out of a narrow lot there is planned on the phone and again when we pull up and see what the street is doing that morning, so we’re in and out without blocking traffic.

There are three ways off the lot. If the wheels still turn, it rolls on whole. If the bearings have frozen or the tires have sunk, it gets winched. If the frame is too long for the space around it, it comes apart before it’s loaded. Pictures of the tires and the room around the trailer tell us which one yours is.

Paperwork missing, or the boat that went with it long gone? Mention it with the pictures; any question about it gets sorted out with you at the quote.

Send us a few photos and tell us what you need removed. We’ll take it from there.

We figure out the right destination once we see what the trailer is made of and what’s still attached, and the load comes straight off the island to Brunswick.

The frame, axle and winch stand are steel, and that steel is usually recycled as scrap, often at SA Recycling in Brunswick.

Rotted bunk boards and the carpet stapled to them are the part that goes to disposal.
