Where will my boat be picked up?
Most boat ship companies offer door-to-door service, which means they will come to your house and put the boat on the truck in front of you. However, with major cities comes tiny roads, and trucks can’t drive on those small roads. The boat ship trucks can be as long as 75 ft long, which makes it virtually impossible to squeeze on a small, two-lane road. If the truck can’t get to your house, generally they will contact you and let you know that you need to meet them in a parking lot or some other place that the truck can fit in.
Also, because of the nature of the United States, many cities prohibit giant trucks from going down minor roads. This is why you never see large 18-wheelers driving past your house. This is generally why you may need to meet the truck in a parking lot or someplace else that the truck can fit in. If they come to your house and there are laws preventing him from doing so, he could get a major fine--then your boat will never move! So let the company that you ship your boat with if your streets are narrow and the truck can’t get in...they’ll appreciate that.

Boat Shippers And Quotes For Shipping Your BoatAn boat shipper is a person or company that ships boats. This can be either a ship broker or a carrier, depending on the company, and each has their own way of operating. A ship broker is an boat shipper that arranges ship – from start to finish, they will find a carrier, handle all the paperwork, and take their own ship broker fee, but they also keep the costs low because they look for carriers instead of shipping it themselves, so the incentive to raise your price is not there. A carrier is an boat shipper that actually moves the boat for a customer. These boat shippers are more common, but most use ship brokers to find and ship boats. An boat shipper quote is the price that an boat shipper will provide to you to ship your boat. An boat shipper quote can come from two different types of boat shippers – either a ship broker or a carrier. A ship broker will give you a quote based on the price that carriers are giving out for the route your ship will be taking as well as their own fee; a carrier will give a quote simply based on the route that you are shipping on. However, some carriers like to charge more, which is why utilizing an boat shipping ship brokerage tends to be less stressful as the price tends to stay the same.
