Facing Issues with an Old, Deteriorated, or Abandoned Boat

Getting rid of an unwanted boat in Monticello is a process that needs to be done by a professional crew. Storm-damaged boats are often unstable, partially submerged, or leaking fuel. Only trained professionals with the right equipment can safely haul and dispose of them without causing more property or environmental damage. Local laws, transport logistics, and disposal steps often add time to the job.

Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal

Disposing of an old boat in Monticello isn't as simple as it sounds, especially for vessels previously kept on Lake Delhi. Permits may be required for towing or dismantling certain boats. AAA Rousse’s crew handles all the dismantling: removing masts, stripping electronics and gear, and cutting the flybridge if required. Large boats often need to be destroyed before a landfill will take them. The AAA Rousse team will take care of everything for you.

Common Boat Removal Scenarios

Boat removal around Monticello most often starts with vessels left on trailers or in outdoor lots after seasons on the Wapsipinicon River. Owners who stored boats near the Hwy 38 corridor or at local acreages frequently contact us when hulls deteriorate past the point of repair, and a full haul becomes the only practical option. These pickups make up a large share of our calls.

Storm and flood events along the Maquoketa River corridor push a second wave of removal requests our way, with waterlogged hulls stranded on banks or partially sunk at private docks. Lake Delhi draws similar calls after high water seasons, when pontoons and fishing boats are left aground or tangled in debris. Our crew handles both water extractions and land hauls across Jones County.

Prompt, came out same day within a few hours of calling them. They were very careful while moving the junk. Friendly. Takes all forms of payment. I plan on calling them again. Mark and Christina came the next trip to remove more junk. They were very professional, quick, worked hard, and even swept the mess left from the junk on the garage floor.

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!

The team did a wonderful job clearing out 2 of our office suites. Both suites contained about 40+ cubicles, 11 executives offices, at 3 conference rooms. It took about a week to get everything out of there but they were fair and always updated me throughout the day. They also sent pictures to make sure I knew they were filling the trailer up (they charge by the load).
