Types of Long Beach, California Boat Transport Services

Our team is experienced and knowledgeable about the best transport techniques to use. We guarantee safe and secure shipping of your boat throughout the entire process. We also provide affordable storage and maintenance services.

Boat transport

Kindly follow these guidelines with the help of an agent:

  • Following the requirements and protocols provided by the shipping company, get adequate measurements of the boat.
  • Select a marina with the room and equipment needed to accommodate your boat type.
  • Ensure all necessary paperwork is in order before shipping the boat. Securely store any items that need to stay with the boat. Make sure the boat is ready for transport when the shipping company arrives.

Powerboat shipping

Follow these requirements before shipping your powerboat:

  • Check all parts of the boat for damage. Make sure that all safety equipment is in working order. Pack the powerboat securely for transport.
  • Drain excess water and fuel from the boat. Secure all hatches and openings. Disconnect any batteries.
  • Remove any loose items from the boat. Check the insurance document and make sure it is up-to-date. Secure the boat properly before transport.
  • Once you have completed these steps, adhere to the shipping rules regarding the boat's height by acquiring the necessary permits.

Sailboat Transport

Due to the complexity and sensitivity of shipping sailboats, a professional boat shipping company is the best way to ensure a successful sailboat delivery. The boat shipping firm would have to properly detach and reassemble parts of the sailboat, like the mast and antennas. Properly secure all loose parts to the trailer before transporting to avoid potential damage or loss in transit. Remove all attachments that can add to the boat's height or use a pole car for over-height sailboats. Additionally, check the sailboat's height before transport to ensure it obeys shipping laws and requirements.

Yacht shipping

Proper preparation and documentation are essential to ensure a safe and secure yacht shipping experience. Consider the unique needs of a large boat, such as pole cars, route surveys, and pilot cars. The yacht must be shrink-wrapped, and the mast must be removed and laid down to reduce its overall height. Finally, obtain a special permit if the boat exceeds the height and width requirements, and do this before the yacht is shipped.

Small boat transport

At A-1 Auto Transport, we also offer shipping services for small boats. Small boats are easy to ship and can use open or enclosed trailers. Shipping services for small boats are affordable and convenient and do not require a lot of planning.

General boat shipping rules apply to small boats. Strap the boat to the trailer during transport and have adequate insurance coverage. Customers must also provide proof of ownership before shipping can begin. It must also be well-cleaned before shipping.

International Boat Shipping

Before you ship your boat across countries, ensure you have all the necessary documents and permits. You should also research the regulations and taxes that may apply to the shipment. Finally, your boat must be insured and inspected by a professional before shipping it.

A-1 Auto Transport has the expertise to ship your boat internationally for you. With our team of experienced professionals, you can rest assured that your boat will be delivered safely. We will ensure that all the necessary documents and permits are in order.

Container Boat Shipping

Container boat shipping means transporting a boat as a haul on a cargo ship. This method of transportation is an effective way to move vessels long distances, allowing them to reach even the most remote of destinations. It is also a cost-effective way for boat owners to ship their boats to distant locations, as it is much cheaper than having the boat towed. It also reduces the risk of damage as the boat is transported inside a container.

How Much Does It Cost to Ship a Boat to or from Long Beach, California?

The size, weight, and distance of the shipment largely influence shipping charges. For example, shipping smaller boats cost less than larger boats, and shorter-distance deliveries cost less than longer-distance shipments. Additionally, the type of boat can also impact the cost of shipping.

How to Prepare a Boat for Shipping

Kindly adhere to the following to prepare your boat for shipping:

  • Ensure the boat is cleaned and dried before shipping.
  • Secure all loose items and drain the fuel tank.
  • Make sure the vessel is well-strapped before the shipment.
  • Ensure that all necessary paperwork is completed.

A-1 Auto Transport has no shipping distance and boat type restrictions. We guarantee satisfaction with our fast, efficient, and secure delivery services. We also provide customized solutions to meet any special needs. Contact us at 1-888-230-9116 to get started with your boat transport.
