Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal

An old, junk boat in the Portage Bay area of St. Ignace often becomes a stubborn problem to solve. Barnacles and marine growth 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

Boat removal in this area often starts with vessels left at Foley Creek Marina or along the St. Ignace Municipal Marina docks, where owners abandon aging hulls after seasons of neglect. Ice heave from the Straits winters and storm damage are the top reasons boats become unrecoverable, leaving slip holders and property managers scrambling for a licensed removal crew.

Sunken and semi submerged boats are a recurring call near the Pointe La Barbe shoreline and the public ramp off Church Street, where shallow draft vessels settle into the lakebed after a bad storm. Our crew also fields frequent requests from the Boardman Road storage yards, where trailerless boats sit unclaimed for years before owners finally arrange for full dismantling and eco conscious disposal.

The best company I've ever used when dealing with our building clean up. We are in the process of selling and the buyers are extremely unreasonable but after hearing about AAA and dealing with Jennine and her assurance that our property would be professionally cleaned and all cleared (equipment, debris, trash etc..) not only did she deliver on that promise but knocked it out of the ballpark!! Thank you so much AAA and Jennine, we could have NEVER done it without you.

I can’t say enough about how helpful Janine and her crew from AAARousse were in disposing of a catamaran on our property. When they realized it wasn’t on a trailer, they cut it up manually. And it was all done in one day. I called the office this morning and by afternoon it was gone. Thanks so much!

I would definitely recommend AAA Rousse Junk Removal. Stephanie was so helpful in finding the right crew who would come out to our remote location to remove furniture and appliances from our camp. She kept in contact and organized everything from beginning to end. Thanks to Colby and crew for driving the almost 2 hrs and the great job in clearing out all the stuff!
