Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal
An old, junk boat in St. Francis often becomes a stubborn problem to solve. Barnacles and marine growth from the Little Wabash River add weight, making the boat removal process more difficult. Our Teams take off the masts, clear out the boat’s gear and electronics and cut off the flybridge if needed. Most larger vessels are not accepted at landfills unless we crush or demolish them. Let us take care of it.
Common Boat Removal Scenarios
Lake Sara draws boaters from across the region, and aging or storm damaged vessels left at its docks and launch areas create removal needs year round. The Little Wabash River corridor also sees abandoned flat bottom boats and jon boats wedged along muddy banks, requiring professional extraction before seasonal water rises make access even more difficult.
Along the Embarras River, sunken or waterlogged hulls are a recurring challenge for landowners whose property backs up to low lying banks. Back on Lake Sara, pontoon boats left to deteriorate at private piers account for a large share of calls we receive, and St. Francis crews respond quickly to haul those hulls before they become a liability for the property owner.
