Default Disposing of old boat

Bought a fiberglass boat last year and found the transom was rotten. So started pulling it apart and found stringers rotten and a crack in the hull. It's gonna cost me a small fortune to try and fix it some I'm just gonna chuck it to the dump. Can you bring a whole boat to the dump? Or would you have to cut it up first.

If anyone wants it you can have it before Friday, after Friday it will be gone.

Pretty sure they will take it whole. I once brought an entire RV to the Lethbridge Dump and they took it. I think the packer operator that day had fun destroying it.

Default Garage Sale

You might get more for it at a garage sale, then it would cost you in dump fees at a landfil. A few weeks ago we were selling junk out of the garage in in a day and a half I made 1800.00 selling stuff I was going to take to the dump anyways.
The trick was to not be too greedy on the pricing, and realize that I hadn't used some of it in years.

Called the dump today and they said bring it out, just make sure there's no fuel in it. We don't pay to bring anything to the landfill here. Well we do every month, but not per visit.
