Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal

Unwanted boats near Schlatter Lake in Copper Harbor tend to be more complicated to remove than expected. Specialized cranes or barges may be required. Our team takes down the mast, removes the boat’s equipment and electronics, and cuts off the flybridge if needed. Since most landfills can’t take larger boats as they are, they need to be crushed or dismantled first. Don’t worry - our team takes care of that for you, making the whole process simple and stress-free. Relax - we’ve got it handled.

Common Boat Removal Scenarios

Copper Harbor sits at the tip of the Keweenaw Peninsula, where boats often end up stranded or abandoned near Porter Island and Hunter's Point after harsh winters. Ice damage, neglected hulls, and sunken vessels at Horseshoe Harbor are among the most common removal calls our crews receive in this remote corner of the Upper Peninsula.

Seasonal owners who dock along Agate Harbor or haul boats down Gay Lac La Belle Road frequently leave vessels behind when repairs become too costly. Waterlogged or storm damaged boats along the Montreal River corridor also generate removal requests, as tight access roads and limited local resources make DIY hauling nearly impossible for most property owners.

I was cleaning out a family member’s house that bordered on being a hoarder. I called AAA Rousse and they were able to promptly meet my junk hauling needs on two separate occasions. The men providing the service were friendly and professional. They definitely made the process easy.

The family owned company was wonderful! They came in and undertook a very difficult project without complaining and they did it at the price that they quoted to us originally. They were friendly patient hard-working and did a great job! We would not hesitate to call them again and we would recommend them to anyone we know.

We had a really great experience with the company with our hot tub removal. Everyone that we worked with was super accomodating, friendly & got the job done quickly and professionally. They also communicate really well. Would highly recommend for any junk or hot tub removal.

Rob's son Ron did a wonderful job removing a large sofa, loveseat and reclining chair. He arrived as scheduled, was courteous, funny and engaging. I would recommend AAA Rouse Junk Removal without hesitation.

This company is excellent! Removing this old 18 ft motor home was not an easy task. It had been sitting in the same spot for 26 years so needless to say it was literally falling apart and imbedded in the ground. The 2 men who removed it were so patient and professional taking care not to tear up the yard while doing so, not to mention it was one of our hottest days. They deserve 10 stars or more in my book!
