Facing Issues with an Old, Deteriorated, or Abandoned Boat

Disposing of a damaged or abandoned vessel in Sturgis is a task best left to our experienced professionals. Boats too old or damaged for insurance coverage pose liability risks. Professionals guarantee complete removal and provide liability release documentation. Local compliance, towing logistics, and environmental disposal laws can create roadblocks to removal along West Main Street.

Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal

Sturgis residents often discover that old boat disposal near the Prairie River 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 calls in this area frequently involve vessels left at Shavehead Lake after seasons of neglect, hulls pulled from Christiana Creek that have settled into the bank, and watercraft stored behind rural properties near the Indiana border. Owners often discover titles are unclear, making disposal harder without a licensed crew to handle the paperwork and the haul.

Eagle Lake sees regular requests from cottagers dealing with sunken or storm damaged pontoons that need crane extraction before road transport. Boats abandoned at Sturgis City Pond or trailered to overgrown lots off M-66 are also common calls. In each case our team coordinates the route, the lift, and the certified disposal so the owner walks away with a clean liability release.

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).
