Boat removal in Ohio, done right

We're a local boat removal company serving Ohio's lakes, rivers, and marinas, and we know how much the waterways here matter to property owners and dock operators alike. From Lake Erie down to the Ohio River, waterfront locations come with real logistics, and getting a vessel out safely takes more than just a trailer and a truck. We handle boat removal and disposal for residential and commercial clients across Ohio and the surrounding areas, covering everything from an old sailboat sitting in someone's backyard to a sunken boat at the bottom of a marina slip. Our boat removal service is built to safely remove and dispose of any size vessel responsibly, including abandoned boats, submerged vessels, and anything in between.

We're an Ohio-based boat removal and disposal crew with a safe and responsible approach to every job. Whether you need a boat removed from water or land, we've got you covered across Columbus, Cleveland, Toledo, and beyond.

Our boat disposal services in Ohio

We handle every type of boat removal in Ohio, from waterlogged wrecks to grounded sailboats sitting in a marina or along the shoreline.

  • Sunken boat removal — Foundering or sunken boat removal is some of the most demanding work we do. Submerged vessels create real hazards in waterways and marinas, so our crew works quickly to recover, dismantle, and dispose of them in a safe and responsible way.
  • Sailboat removal — Onshore or grounded sailboat boat removal takes more planning than most people expect. Crews dismantle masts and rigging before moving the vessel, and grounded sailboat boat removal from a dry-docked vessel position gets handled with eco-conscious disposal so nothing ends up where it shouldn't.
  • Boat disposal services — Owners often discover that old boat disposal is anything but simple. Old junk vessels don't just disappear. We handle the whole thing, crushed or dismantled depending on condition, recycling parts wherever we can rather than sending everything straight to a landfill.
  • Boat salvage — Salvage and disposal of a damaged or abandoned vessel means getting to it first. We tow boats out of tight spots, work across marinas and private waterfronts, and manage the full dismantling and disposal process from start to finish.
