Common Boat Removal Scenarios

Boat removals in Bloomington most often begin at the Cutright State Recreation Area boat ramp on the eastern shore, where owners haul out vessels at the end of the season or after storm damage. Crews also respond to boats left on trailers along Strain Ridge Road, retrieving watercraft that owners can no longer transport on their own after a day on the water.

In the western reaches of Monroe County, removals along the Bledsoe Creek access corridor are common, particularly for pontoon boats and aging fishing vessels that have sat unused for years. The Indian Creek area also generates calls when neglected boats are abandoned near low water crossings, requiring a flatbed or heavy trailer to complete a safe extraction from muddy or overgrown launch sites.

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).
