Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal

Disposing of old boats near Fayette Lake in Union can be a real headache. Heavy restrictions on where many larger boats can be taken. Our team takes down the mast, removes the boat’s equipment and electronics, and cuts off the flybridge if needed. Landfills typically won’t accept larger vessels unless they’ve been crushed or demolished. With AAA Rousse, you can relax - we’ll manage it all.

Common Boat Removal Scenarios

Boat removal calls in this area frequently involve vessels left along the Embarras River, where seasonal flooding can strand or sink older hulls. Owners pulling aging motorboats and jon boats off the water at the Greenup Access Area often find the boats are no longer worth trailering, making professional removal the practical choice. Deteriorated fiberglass and flooded outboards are common conditions our crew encounters at these rural river launches.

Stored boats that have sat in farm fields or gravel lots near Union are another frequent removal scenario, especially after an estate sale or property transfer. Owners near Fayette Lake and the surrounding lowlands sometimes need submerged or partially sunken vessels recovered before county inspectors issue citations. Our team handles full salvage, draining, and eco conscious disposal so landowners can close the chapter without further liability.

Bobby and his coworker came out. They were friendly and professional. They quoted me a good price for a hot tub removal and scattered debris. Worked very quickly. Would definitely use them again.

Had a great experience with aaa rousse, spoke with Miles, very prompt, transparent and accurate. Informed me on everything he was looking at, even told me how to dispose of paint without them touching it to save me money. Great people all around.

I'm able to use them for my company to pick up in places other providers do not. They quickly work to get the items picked up and taken away.
