Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal

In Gaylord, the process of boat removal can turn out to be unexpectedly difficult. Many marinas or property owners want old boats removed quickly, but the process often takes longer than expected due to weather, time sensitivity, towing restrictions near Beaver Creek, and more. Our crews remove masts, strip the boat of its gear and electronics, and cut off the flybridge if necessary. Larger vessels can’t go to a landfill unless we crush or demolish them. Let the AAA Rousse do all the work for you.

Common Boat Removal Scenarios

Boat removal needs around Gaylord often begin when vessels left on Otsego County waterways like Lake Nettie or Pigeon River become hazards or liabilities. Owners who stored boats near the Gaylord area for years sometimes return to find them partially submerged or structurally unsound, requiring professional crews who can manage difficult water and land extractions without damaging surrounding property.

Situations also arise at inland storage lots near Sparr Road or at private docks on Big Bear Lake, where aging pontoons and motorboats have sat unused for seasons. Seasonal ice damage, expired registrations, and marina eviction notices all push owners toward removal, and our team handles each scenario from initial assessment through full eco conscious disposal, no matter the condition of the vessel.

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).
