Common Boat Removal Scenarios

Patoka Lake draws boaters from across the region, and over time many vessels at Patoka Lake Marina fall into disrepair, leaving owners seeking professional removal. Boats that sat unused through multiple winters often need extraction from slips or dry storage. The Newton Stewart State Recreation Area boat launch sees frequent drop offs of vessels that are later abandoned, creating removal calls throughout the area.

Along the Patoka River, older aluminum fishing boats and jon boats are commonly left on private banks or tangled in overgrowth, requiring careful extraction before transport. Some owners along Winslow Road store hulls in rear lots for years until a property sale forces action. Whether a vessel is landlocked on a rural tract or wedged against a riverbank, our crews handle every retrieval from start to finish.

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).
