Facing Issues with an Old, Deteriorated, or Abandoned Boat

Professional marine crews are essential for proper vessel removal anywhere in Buckhart, including along the Lake Taylorville shoreline. Neglected boats can leak gas, oil, or sewage. Professional removal ensures hazardous materials are contained and disposed of according to environmental laws. Local rules, disposal regulations, and towing logistics often stand in the way of quick boat removal.

Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal

The reality is that boat removal is often much tougher than it seems for Buckhart area residents, especially those hauling from the South Fork River. Some older vessels often contain asbestos insulation. Our Teams take off the masts, clear out the boat’s gear and electronics and cut off the flybridge if needed. Larger boats usually need to be crushed or demolished before a landfill will take them - and our team takes care of that process. You just sit back - AAA Rousse takes care of the rest.

Common Boat Removal Scenarios

Boat removals near Lake Taylorville frequently involve vessels left on private shoreline property after the boating season ends and owners lose interest in costly repairs. Deteriorated hulls along the South Fork River corridor also come up regularly, often sitting in shallow water for years. Kincaid Lake sees abandoned pontoons and aluminum fishing boats left at unattended launches, requiring full haul out and disposal.

Slip turnover at the Taylorville Municipal Marina creates another common scenario, where estate situations or lapsed registrations leave boats that must be cleared promptly. Wrecked fiberglass runabouts recovered from South Fork River after flooding are a recurring request as well. Owners on Kincaid Lake also call us when storm damage leaves a vessel too compromised to trailer, and a water haul with a crane or barge is the only option.

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!
