Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal

The process of getting rid of a junk boat in Blue Lake on Torch Lake is often more challenging than it first appears. Boats partially sunk are extremely difficult to lift, float, and tow. Our work also includes removing masts, stripping out electronics, and, if necessary, reducing the flybridge. Larger vessels often require demolition or crushing before they can be disposed of at a landfill. We take care of this step for you, making the entire removal and disposal process smooth and stress-free. AAA Rousse - we do it all, so you don’t have to.

Common Boat Removal Scenarios

Boat removals around Blue Lake most often begin with vessels left sitting on trailers at Bear Lake Landing or tied up along the Boardman River corridor after seasons of neglect. Waterlogged hulls, failed bilge pumps, and sunken transoms are common problems our crews encounter at public boat launches like the Kalkaska State Forest access points, where abandoned boats block ramps and create hazards for other users.

Seasonal owners on Pickerel Lake and Sand Lake frequently call us when a pontoon or runabout has become too deteriorated to sell or donate. Kalkaska County waterfront properties often have old vessels sitting in backyards or partially submerged at private docks along Lake Skegemog, and our crews handle the full haul out, stripping, and eco conscious disposal from start to finish.

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!
