Our AAA Rousse marine team handles mast removal, gear and electronics stripping, and flybridge cutting when required. Landfills don’t accept most large boats unless we crush or demolish them. Leave it all to the AAA Rousse Professionals.

Common Boat Removal Scenarios

Boat removal calls in this stretch of the Ohio River corridor often involve vessels that have been sitting neglected at private docks near Dayton Boat Club or grounded along the shoreline below the Silver Bridge corridor. Seasonal flooding pushes hulls into unusual positions, and owners of pontoons and fishing boats tied along the Campbell County riverbank frequently need licensed crews to extract and legally dispose of what remains.

Storage situations are another common scenario, with owners discovering old fiberglass hulls abandoned behind properties near the Fort Thomas Armory or tucked into lots off Licking Pike. Boats without titles, stripped of motors and electronics, require careful documentation before transport. Our team navigates those details so that vessels removed from inland storage yards and riverside properties are processed in full compliance with Campbell County regulations.

 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.
