Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal

Disposing of old boats in Lincoln can be a real headache near the Lincoln Elks Lodge boat launch. Heavy restrictions on where many larger boats can be taken. Our team takes down the mast, removes the boat’s equipment and electronics, and cuts off the flybridge if needed. Landfills typically won’t accept larger vessels unless they’ve been crushed or demolished. With AAA Rousse, you can relax - we’ll manage it all.

Common Boat Removal Scenarios

Boat removal calls in Lincoln most often involve vessels that have sat unused near the Kickapoo Creek corridor or been stored on private property for years. Owners who kept a boat at Lake Fork or trailered one from the Elihu Callaway Memorial boat launch frequently call us when registration lapses, hull damage worsens, or a property sale makes removal urgent.

A second common scenario involves estate situations and insurance write offs, where families need a documented, liability covered haul from a storage yard or a residential driveway in Logan County. Vessels pulled from the Lincoln Reservoir area or brought overland from private ponds outside town round out the calls we handle, and our crew manages every step from extraction to eco conscious disposal.

I was cleaning out a family member’s house that bordered on being a hoarder. I called AAA Rousse and they were able to promptly meet my junk hauling needs on two separate occasions. The men providing the service were friendly and professional. They definitely made the process easy.

The family owned company was wonderful! They came in and undertook a very difficult project without complaining and they did it at the price that they quoted to us originally. They were friendly patient hard-working and did a great job! We would not hesitate to call them again and we would recommend them to anyone we know.

We had a really great experience with the company with our hot tub removal. 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.

Rob's son Ron did a wonderful job removing a large sofa, loveseat and reclining chair. He arrived as scheduled, was courteous, funny and engaging. I would recommend AAA Rouse Junk Removal without hesitation.

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!
