Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal
Melbourne residents are discovering that an old, dilapidated boat past its prime isn't easy to get off their hands, whether it is sitting near Rock Creek Marina or in a back lot. The large size and heavy weight of many boats are definitely a challenge while transporting. 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
Melbourne sits close to the Iowa River corridor, where aging pontoons and jon boats are regularly pulled from the water after seasons of hard use. Vessel owners near Linn Creek Boat Launch often call when a hull becomes too damaged to trailer out safely. Marietta Sand Lake sees similar calls when recreational boats deteriorate beyond repair and need full removal.
Boats left in outdoor storage also generate steady removal work in this area. Rock Creek Marina customers sometimes abandon vessels that are no longer seaworthy, leaving slips blocked and owners liable. Facilities like Timberline Storage and properties along South Center Street frequently have neglected trailers or hulls that require professional extraction, proper documentation, and responsible disposal.
