Facing Issues with an Old, Deteriorated, or Abandoned Boat

Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal

Unwanted boats in Shelocta tend to be more complicated to remove than expected. Specialized cranes or barges may be required, especially for recoveries on Crooked Creek Lake. Our team takes down the mast, removes the boat’s equipment and electronics, and cuts off the flybridge if needed. Since most landfills can’t take larger boats as they are, they need to be crushed or dismantled first. Don’t worry - our team takes care of that for you, making the whole process simple and stress-free. Relax - we’ve got it handled.

Common Boat Removal Scenarios

Boats left unattended along Mahoning Creek or the Allegheny River are among the most common removal situations in Shelocta. Flooding can shift vessels onto private banks, shallow shoals, or under bridge structures, making retrieval complicated. Owners who delay contact with Indiana County officials risk additional fines, and waterlogged hulls may require specialized lifting equipment before transport can begin safely.

A second frequent scenario involves trailered boats abandoned near Sagamore Boat Launch or along Yatesboro Road after mechanical failures or accidents. Vehicles and trailers left blocking public access points trigger rapid removal orders. Owners should maintain current registration and carry towing contacts to avoid impoundment fees that accumulate daily once a vessel or trailer is flagged by local enforcement.

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).
