Facing Issues with an Old, Deteriorated, or Abandoned Boat

Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal

Charlotte boat owners are discovering that boat removal and disposal takes more time and effort than they realized. Shallow waters or sandbars near the Clinton Municipal Marina in Charlotte can make boat transport very difficult. AAA Rousse’s crew handles all the dismantling: removing masts, stripping electronics and gear, and cutting the flybridge if required. Because landfills generally do not take large vessels as-is, extra steps like crushing or dismantling are required. We manage this process from start to finish, ensuring your boat is prepared and accepted without hassle. Stress-free boat removal? Leave it to us.

Common Boat Removal Scenarios

Along the Mississippi River, boats are frequently abandoned at the Clinton Municipal Marina or left stranded near the pools above Lock and Dam No. 13. Owners dealing with flooded or storm wrecked hulls often call for removal after a vessel becomes unsafe to operate or store. These waterway recoveries make up a large share of removal work in the area, typically involving winching and crane lifts from slips or submerged positions.

On land, removals often originate at Eagle Point Park boat ramp, where trailered vessels are left unregistered for seasons at a time. Properties near Beaver Island and the low lying roads along Elk River Landing also generate calls when old pontoons or fiberglass hulls deteriorate beyond repair in driveways or on trailers. These dry side pickups are straightforward but still require proper dismantling and eco conscious disposal to meet state and local regulations.

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).
