Guest buick14 Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 hi there as the title suggests, I have an old 15ft fiberglass hull I would like to get rid of. Does anybody know roughly what it would cost to dispose of, or if theres any particular place which has cheap rates on something like a 1200lb 15 ft boat?? thank you!
Gerritt Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 cut it into little bits with a saw-z-all and little bit by little bit put it out with you're garbage.. Or haul it to the dump. Here in Hamilton it would cost you about 75-100.00 Hope this helps. G
drwxr Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 put it on craigslist for free, eventualy someone will take it.
jwl Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 put it on the curb with the blue-box on top . I am sure you may even be able to find someone who wants to take it off your hands as a project , call a recycle depot or dump and see what it would cost to dump it off if anyhting...specially if they deem it as a recycleable
Big Cliff Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 See if one of your local schools teaches anything about body repair, fiberglass, and offer to donate it to them so their students can practice on it. Put it out on your lawn with a "for sale" sign on it $250.00 or best offer. Someone will either swipe it on you thinking it must be worth something or someone will offer you $50.00 for it thinking they just got one heck of a deal. That way you won't have to pay to get rid of it.
maybe Posted June 1, 2008 Report Posted June 1, 2008 Freecycle.org is great for getting rid of stuff you'd never imagine anyone would want. Find the groups nearest your chunk of Toronto, post an "offer" message, and someone'll likely be thrilled to come get it. Here's the list of Freecycle groups in Ontario.

sirfish Posted June 1, 2008 Report Posted June 1, 2008 1200lbs for a 15ft boat, You have got to be joking. It would have to be made of steel to be that weight. I took my 15ft 1965 monroe fibreglass,which came in at 300lb and cut it into 1ft pieces with sawsall and took it to the dump, no problems.

Lots of old boats are holding 400 lbs of water in the flotation foam.
carp-starter Posted June 1, 2008 Report Posted June 1, 2008 Here in Oakville we can se the Halton dump that is up Bronte Road. The cost is 10.8 cents per kilogram. In your case it will cost less than $75.00. I would much prefer to spend the 75 bucks than to have to cut up the boat in little pieces. carp-starter
