Facing Issues with an Old, Deteriorated, or Abandoned Boat

Disposing of a damaged or abandoned vessel along Sugar Creek in Dawson is a task best left to our experienced professionals. Boats too old or damaged for insurance coverage pose liability risks. Professionals guarantee complete removal and provide liability release documentation. Local compliance, towing logistics, and environmental disposal laws can create roadblocks to removal.

Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal

Dawson residents near the Centennial Park Boat Launch often discover that old boat disposal is anything but simple. Fiberglass disposal is challenging and limited in facilities. Our crews dismantle masts, clear the boat of gear and electronics, and remove the flybridge if required. Most large boats need to be crushed or dismantled before a landfill will accept them. We’ve got it covered - let AAA Rousse take care of everything for you.

Common Boat Removal Scenarios

Boat owners around Dawson Lake and the recreation areas of Comlara Park regularly need removal help when aging vessels become unsafe or unregistered. Hulls left on shoreline property deteriorate quickly in central Illinois winters, and owners seek licensed crews who can haul a pontoon or fishing boat away without damage to the launch area. Lake Bloomington draws similar calls each spring as stored boats are found unfit for the water.

Evergreen Lake sees frequent removals of sunken or storm damaged hulls that require both water recovery and on land dismantling before transport. Owners who once used the Centennial Park Boat Launch often store their vessels nearby over winter, only to find the hull beyond repair by the following season. Along Kickapoo Creek, smaller craft abandoned on private banks add to the removal workload, with crews needing to navigate narrow access paths to reach them.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We used AAA Rousse Junk Removal to help clean out items from our fathers place after he passed away. We were on a limited schedule (we live out of state) and the staff was more than accommodating. After the initial pickup was completed we decided we had more to get rid of and they were able to come the same day. Great service and fair pricing. Great to work with!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The best company I've ever used when dealing with our  building clean up. We are in the process of selling and the buyers are extremely unreasonable but after hearing about AAA and dealing with Jennine and her assurance  that our property would be professionally cleaned and all cleared (equipment, debris, trash etc..) not only did she deliver on that promise but knocked it out of the ballpark!! Thank you so much AAA and Jennine,  we could have NEVER done it without you.

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.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. AAA Roussee is the BEST company ever!!!  I hired them to help my friend who had a major problem with bed bugs in Miami.  We had the place exterminated, but bed bugs are almost impossible to get rid of totally unless all fabric furniture and rugs, etc. are disposed of.  My friend is VERY stubborn and would not agree to let them take the expensive rug and other furniture, he just wasn't grasping the importance of that.  The pickup guy,  Corey, was able to convince him to let go of ALL necessary items, Corey has such a wonderful way about him, I called him "The Bug Whisperer"... my friend fully cooperated, got rid of everything, we will have one last followup extermination check and now there is hope to totally resolve this HORRIBLE problem.  This company is the BEST!!!!!  Also, Robert, who I set everything up with, is such a great guy... he took a personal interest on the phone and made us understand the severity of the problem and what needed to be done, he went WAY ABOVE and BEYOND the call of duty!!!!   If he had not bothered to listen and discuss and truly advise and help this never would have been resolved.  Thank you Robert and Corey!!!!!!  Do not bother with any other company!!!  These people are caring and honest and get the job done thoroughly and quickly.
