Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal
An old, junk boat in Luana near the Luana Launch often becomes a stubborn problem to solve. Barnacles and marine growth add weight, making the boat removal process more difficult. Our Teams take off the masts, clear out the boat’s gear and electronics and cut off the flybridge if needed. Most larger vessels are not accepted at landfills unless we crush or demolish them. Let us take care of it.
Common Boat Removal Scenarios
Boat removal around Luana most often starts at the Turkey River, where aging aluminum fishing boats and flat bottomed johnboats get pulled from muddy banks or low water snags. The Luana Public Access ramp sees steady traffic each season, and owners sometimes abandon craft there when motors fail or hull damage makes relaunching impossible, leaving the burden of removal to the property or ramp manager.
Further into Clayton County, the Yellow River draws canoeists and anglers whose older fiberglass vessels are sometimes left at informal pull outs along the Yellow River State Forest corridor. Pontoon boats stored in rural farmstead sheds near the Bloody Run Creek drainage also come up regularly, sitting on rotted trailers and needing full haul out service before the frame can be safely moved to a disposal facility.
