Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal

Macon residents near the Hennepin Canal Parkway often discover that old boat disposal is anything but simple. Fiberglass disposal is challenging and limited in facilities. Our crews dismantle masts, clear the boat of gear and electronics, and remove the flybridge if required. Most large boats need to be crushed or dismantled before a landfill will accept them. We’ve got it covered - let AAA Rousse take care of everything for you.

Common Boat Removal Scenarios

Boat removal in this area most often starts along the Hennepin Canal, where aging vessels are abandoned after the waterway's limited navigation season ends. Owners who stored boats on trailers near Bureau Creek frequently find them deteriorated beyond repair after harsh winters. Flat rural terrain and gravel access roads make extraction challenging, and our crews handle everything from canal bank recoveries to overgrown lot pickups across Macon.

Spring Lake draws anglers from across Bureau County, and each season leaves behind a handful of sunken or stripped fishing boats that need professional removal. Pontoons and jon boats left at rural farm ponds near the Hennepin Canal Parkway corridor are another common call, often sitting on soft ground that requires specialized equipment. We coordinate permits, environmental compliance, and full disposal so landowners are not left with lingering liability.

This guy's helped us in a pinch! We were trying to sell our house and we needed a replacement junk removal after the previous service change the price to 6 times the amount last minute. I called ASAP Rousseau and they came out, saved us $150 and did an excellent job the same day. I'm incredibly grateful and they were reasonable. I highly recommend them!!

Guys did a great job especially considering the circumstances and the drama that ensued, with a borderline hoarder. Bobby was a trooper and handled it well! Thanks for helping and Bobby thanks for finding that item that was thrown out by mistake! You are the bestest!

This was a BIG job with BIG items of all types in a garage and house. Stephanie and her assistant did a very impressive job and I wouldn’t hesitate to engage their services again. Prompt, efficient, on time and at her original estimated cost. I just love people who do what they say they are going to do and when they plan to do it. Again, I’m very impressed.

We had a really great experience with the company with our hot tub removal. Everyone that we worked with was super accomodating, friendly & got the job done quickly and professionally. They also communicate really well. Would highly recommend for any junk or hot tub removal.
