Boatbreakers Portsmouth Scrapyard by Appointment Only

With us moving into our new office building in Gosport there won’t always be someone in our Portsmouth yard. A busy working scrap yard is a health and safety nightmare. For this reason alone we can’t have visitors turning up unannounced. This doesn’t mean you can’t come in to collect or deliver boats. We just need you to call ahead first and one of our team will be happy to come and meet you.
Out of office
By calling ahead you are not only making your visit safer but avoiding a wasted journey. There will be some days where we are all out collecting boats or maybe just on holiday. Other times the team in the yard who drive the cranes might be out so we can’t get you loaded/unloaded.
If you are buying something that we have listed online the chances are it will be at our Gosport Office. Only larger items like masts, large engines or whole boats will be staying at the Portsmouth Scrapyard.
Forklift for loading
We will have some engines with us at the new office. There is even a forklift on-site to assist with loading onto your vehicle. When you purchase one of our items please make a note of the item’s location so you don’t have a wasted journey to the wrong site.
The new office will also be a place that you can come in and talk to the team to discuss the disposal process. We understand that some people may not be so tech-savvy and would prefer to talk face to face. Again it would always be best to call ahead to avoid disappointment but our door is open.
Contact Details
If you’d like to call us our number is 02392 984666. Our email is marketing@boatbreakers.com if you would rather message us. We will do our best to respond to you as soon as we possibly can.

Luke completed a journalism degree in Brighton University and fortunately for us uses this in his communications, Facebook posts, Tweets and emails to tell all our enquirers and followers what we are up to. Without Luke we would be lost, he runs the office, keeps us organised and is like a terrier and never lets a tricky boat disposal job go un-photographed or Tweeted about.
He also manages all of our enquiries passing them to whoever in the team is the best suited to deal with it. We are teaching Luke how to drive a motorboat or sail a yacht so while he’s learning we suggest you keep out of the Solent!
When he’s not at work he’s a massive football fan (his Dad used to play for Portsmouth FC years ago) and seems to know everything there is to know about any player, anywhere. Next time you ring and he answers, think of a tricky football trivia question and ask him
