contact info for boat hauling

[Chris Winn]

I have local light parade in my town this weekend (Villa Park), and I need to find a service that can haul my boat (29ft Magic) from the storage in needles to my house (i'm off the 55 freeway).
does anyone have a phone # or contact for a sevice that can do this for me?
I would do it myself, but I have to be out of town until late Friday night, also what is fair to pay (is it per mile?)

Might want to give them more than 9 minutes before you start getting sassy. ;)
Instant gratification isn't fast enough. ;)

[Chris Winn]

you are right, geez when i saw your reply, i thought i might have an answer for sure (you usually have them for item such as this)

Can't help ya hauling into California. Most the companies I know that do OTR stuff run trucks and trailers, moving heavy equipment.
Yellow pages perhaps??? Let your fingers do the walking. :D :D :D

[RP1]

maybe try one of those RV places. They usually have guys they contract with to deliver trailers long distances.

I know that Flathead owns a trucking / Car hauling company in Bullhead. PM me your # and I can pass it along to him.

i called afew places in the online yellow pages, most of them wanted a fee for driving from Riverside (where most of them are loacated) to Needles. last year i found a company (i lost the # for them) that did it for around $220 or so (and they were bonded and insured), so i am hoping that someone has a recomendation of a company that they have used or know someione who has used them.
i do appriciate all of the feedback though!

Hello Jim,
true, and i do understand that the fuel has cost is higher. the boat is about 6500lbs max (i think more along the lines of 6000lbs), and my zip code is 92867. the trailer has electric brakes (dual disk) on a triple axle trailer
thanks

Whoever you use, ask to see thier insurance and what they are covered for. I found out that a number of these outfits do not carry enough insurance to replace a performance boat. Your insurance is null and void the moment they hook-up. I used Powerboat Transport Concierge. Sorry don't have the number with me, but they advertise on the other boating related sites.
Best of Luck.

we use a guy to haul our boats to and from shows.
His name is
Dave Rigney
909-499-2079
He does charge by the mile and is very reliable. If he cant do it he may have one of his other drivers do it if he can...........
Good luck :coffeycup
