Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal
Matherville residents are discovering that an old, dilapidated boat past its prime isn’t easy to get off their hands. The large size and heavy weight of many boats are definitely a challenge while transporting along Riverdale Road. Our crews remove masts, strip the boat of its gear and electronics, and cut off the flybridge if necessary. Because landfills don’t accept most large vessels in one piece, we manage the crushing or demolition so you don’t have to worry about it. We handle it all - you just relax.
Common Boat Removal Scenarios
Boat removal in this part of Mercer County most often starts with vessels abandoned along the Mississippi backwaters near Campbell's Island, where seasonal flooding leaves hulls stranded on muddy banks. Owners also call us after boats tied at Milan Boat Club are condemned following storm damage. The diverse terrain around Big Island Conservation Area adds haul out complexity that our crews handle routinely.
Waterlogged pontoons and jon boats recovered from the Andalusia Sloughs make up another frequent scenario, especially after heavy spring runoffs push debris into shallow channels. We also field calls from landowners whose deteriorating boats sit in fields along Illinois Route 92, miles from any water. The wooded terrain near Loud Thunder Forest Preserve presents access challenges our rigging equipment is built to overcome.
