Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal

Unwanted boats in Belle Rive near Rend Lake Marina 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

Rend Lake draws boaters from across the region, and over time vessels at Rend Lake Marina or along the South Sandusky Recreation Area shoreline are left abandoned or sunk after storms, title disputes, or owner hardship. Removal from these open water sites requires coordinated crane work, permits, and careful haul routes to protect the surrounding recreation areas and water quality.

On land, neglected pontoons and johnboats accumulate at storage lots near Gun Creek Recreation Area and along the shores of Rend City Bay, often blocked by overgrown brush or tight access lanes. Wayne Fitzgerrell State Recreation Area sees similar situations where trailers and hulls are left after registrations lapse, requiring professional crews to safely extract and dispose of each vessel without damaging surrounding grounds.

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).
