Our AAA Rousse marine team handles mast removal, gear and electronics stripping, and flybridge cutting when required. Landfills don’t accept most large boats unless we crush or demolish them.

Common Boat Removal Scenarios

Boat owners in Tacoma most often call for removal when a vessel has gone derelict on the water or sunk at a private dock along the Puyallup River delta. Boats tied up at Foss Waterway Seaport or stored ashore at the Port of Tacoma container yards frequently fall into disrepair, and owners need a licensed crew to extract and legally dispose of them before port authority citations escalate.

Trailered hulks left at the Narrows Marina boat storage lots are another common scenario, where registration has lapsed and the vessel has become an insurance liability. Boat launches at Wollochet Bay and along the Tacoma Narrows shoreline also see seasonal abandonments after storm damage, requiring full haul out, gear stripping, and eco conscious disposal to meet Pierce County environmental standards.

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).
