Facing Issues with an Old, Deteriorated, or Abandoned Boat

Boat removal services in Dana must be carried out by professionals to be done right. Boats with seized engines are heavy and difficult to transport along waterways like Brouilletts Creek. Professionals use winches, cranes, and tow rigs to remove them safely. Strict local ordinances, difficult towing arrangements, and disposal laws can slow removal efforts.

Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal

Dana boat owners are discovering that boat removal and disposal takes more time and effort than they realized. Shallow waters or sandbars near Newport Causeway in Dana 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

Boats left to deteriorate along the Vermillion River and Brouilletts Creek make up a large share of removal calls in this area. Waterlogged hulls lodged against creek banks or abandoned near Kickapoo State Recreation Area access points require winching, rigging, and careful coordination before any transport can begin. These water recoveries are among the most labor intensive jobs crews encounter.

Storage situations are equally common, with neglected pontoons and motorboats sitting on trailers near Newport Causeway approaches or tucked along State Road 71 corridors for years. Owners selling property or settling estates often call for a fast haul from a gravel lot or small inland marina slip. AAA Rousse crews handle each scenario from initial assessment through eco conscious disposal.

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).
