Use the estimate form to send the actual address, dimensions, condition, supports and safe photographs. Ask about availability and the required assessment before agreeing to a date.
Condition and items included
Identify the hull material and whether the engine, trailer and loose equipment are part of the request. Report damage, uncertain supports, standing water and unknown history without entering an unsafe hull or starting machinery.
For junk boat removal, ask whether intact transport, preparation or dismantling is proposed. No condition is automatically accepted, and hull deterioration does not establish either zero value or a suitable cutting method.
Residential and storage access
Show the path to the exit, gates, turns, ground and visible overhead restrictions from a safe position. Give known measurements without approaching utilities, moving supports or climbing the boat. Explain who controls entry and any shared-drive or working-hour limits.
Report known trailer frame, tire, axle or coupling concerns without test-towing. Rolling wheels do not establish roadworthiness. If equipment is missing or damaged, ask which handling method can be assessed rather than assuming a standard tow or flatbed.
If the boat is at another location
An owner's Sunrise address may differ from a marina or dock where the boat is stored. Give the actual facility, berth and operator contact. Ask about an authorized working area and whether the proposed activity is suitable; a nearby waterfront listing does not establish commercial extraction permission.
Describe whether the boat floats, is grounded or partly submerged. For sailboats, add mast, rigging and keel details. Ask which recovery, lifting, tow and road transport tasks need assessment before anyone attempts movement.
Agree release and receiving arrangements
Permission to enter a property is separate from authority over the boat. A manager, landlord or estate representative should resolve release questions before collection is agreed; an estimate does not establish those rights.
For boat disposal, ask which recipient accepts the actual hull or separated materials and who assesses preparation. Identify fuel, oil, batteries and suspected hazardous contents without opening, draining, discharging or mixing them. Keep the agreed scope, release records and any available destination receipt. The cost guide helps prepare questions, not certify compliance.
