Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal

Disposing of old boats in Shelby near Logan Martin Lake can be a real headache. Heavy restrictions on where many larger boats can be taken. Our team takes down the mast, removes the boat’s equipment and electronics, and cuts off the flybridge if needed. Landfills typically won’t accept larger vessels unless they’ve been crushed or demolished. With AAA Rousse, you can relax - we’ll manage it all.

Common Boat Removal Scenarios

Boat removal around Shelby most often begins at Lay Lake, where aging motorboats and pontoons are abandoned at docks or sunk near coves after years of neglect. Owners upgrading at the Lay Lake Marina frequently need full haul out and disposal services, and storm damage along the shoreline each season adds to the volume of vessels that require professional removal.

Further east, removals on Logan Martin Lake involve watercraft left at private docks or stranded on muddy banks after floods push them off their lifts. The Higgins Ferry area sees a steady number of calls from landowners dealing with derelict hulls that have drifted onto their property, and Shelby County regulations require documented disposal before titles can be cleared and land sold.

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).
