Facing Issues with an Old, Deteriorated, or Abandoned Boat

Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal

Unwanted boats in Elk River tend to be more complicated to remove than expected, including hauls originating from the Orinoco Landing area. 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

Boat removal requests in Elk River frequently begin at the Mississippi River, where aging pontoons and motorboats have been moored or run aground over long winters. Owners dealing with storm damage or mechanical failure often reach out after a vessel becomes stuck near Babcock Park or along the riverbank, requiring crane assistance and careful coordination with local authorities before any haul can begin.

Derelict boats left at Rogers Lake or abandoned in private storage lots off Proctor Avenue are another common scenario crews encounter in Sherburne County. Estate situations, failed restoration projects, and lapsed registrations leave vessels sitting for years, and owners need a team that handles permits, environmental compliance, and full dismantling so the property can be cleared without legal complications.

Prompt, came out same day within a few hours of calling them. They were very careful while moving the junk. Friendly. Takes all forms of payment. I plan on calling them again. Mark and Christina came the next trip to remove more junk. They were very professional, quick, worked hard, and even swept the mess left from the junk on the garage floor.

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!

The team did a wonderful job clearing out 2 of our office suites. Both suites contained about 40+ cubicles, 11 executives offices, at 3 conference rooms. It took about a week to get everything out of there but they were fair and always updated me throughout the day. They also sent pictures to make sure I knew they were filling the trailer up (they charge by the load).
