Facing Issues with an Old, Deteriorated, or Abandoned Boat

Professional marine crews are essential for proper vessel removal anywhere in Gem, including properties accessed via South Colby Road. 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 Gem area residents, especially when a vessel has been staged near the Thomas County Fairgrounds storage yard. 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 removal calls in this part of northwest Kansas most often involve vessels left on private land or pulled from the Smoky Hill River after seasonal flooding. Owners also reach out when a boat has sat unused in a field for years and the trailer has rusted solid. The open terrain around Mingo Road makes towing straightforward, but weight and ground conditions still require professional equipment and planning.

A second common scenario involves watercraft stored near the grain elevators along I-70 that owners no longer have use for after retiring from farming. Requests also come from families clearing estate property near Rexford, where a pontoon or aluminum fishing boat has been sitting behind a machine shed for a decade. Our crew handles Thomas County pickups of all sizes, from small jon boats to full cabin cruisers left on open lots.

 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.
