Facing Issues with an Old, Deteriorated, or Abandoned Boat

Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal

In South Hero, the process of boat removal can turn out to be unexpectedly difficult. Many marinas or property owners near Apple Island want old boats removed quickly, but the process often takes longer than expected due to weather, time sensitivity, towing restrictions, and more. Our crews remove masts, strip the boat of its gear and electronics, and cut off the flybridge if necessary. Larger vessels can’t go to a landfill unless we crush or demolish them. Let the AAA Rousse do all the work for you.

Common Boat Removal Scenarios

Boat removal calls in South Hero most often involve vessels left too long at Gordon Landing or forgotten at the West Shore Road waterfront. Owners find hulls half sunk after ice out, weathered pontoons wedged against docks on Mallet Bay, or derelict sailboats that have not moved in years. Each situation calls for a different lift and haul approach handled by trained crews.

Storm season on Lake Champlain drives another wave of removals, particularly around Porters Point and the Inland Sea. High water pushes boats onto rocky shores or tangles them in dock lines, leaving owners unable to move them without professional equipment. Grand Isle County regulations also require timely disposal of abandoned hulls, so quick response from a licensed removal team is essential.

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).
