AAA Boat Salvage provides boat removal, marine salvage, emergency boat removal, sunken boat recovery, and paid junk boat disposal throughout Florida. Find answers about our services, vessel access, and requesting an estimate.
We serve the entire state of Florida.
Start with the vessel’s condition and the work you need.
AAA Boat Salvage provides marine salvage and boat recovery throughout Florida. For your vessel, ask about experience with a similar condition and location, the recovery approach, access requirements, and the proposed scope. Share the boat’s length, current position, and photographs to start the assessment.
Relevant services include assessment of grounded or submerged vessels, boat recovery, removal, and disposal when needed. AAA Boat Salvage assesses storm-damaged boats in Florida. When choosing a provider, look for a clear scope, realistic availability, and an explanation of the site access and equipment required.
AAA Boat Salvage provides paid junk boat disposal across Florida, including inland properties and waterfront locations. Send your address or map pin, the hull’s approximate length and condition, and whether a trailer is present so we can assess your request.
Yes. AAA Boat Salvage offers paid boat removal and disposal in Florida. We assess the vessel and access before providing an estimate. Confirm whether the agreed work includes recovery, lifting, removal, disposal, and any requested cleanup.
The right service depends on where the boat is, its condition, and who can authorize removal. Look for a provider that reviews those details, explains access requirements, and gives a clear scope. AAA Boat Salvage assesses abandoned-vessel removal requests after discussing the vessel and authorization situation.
Recovery addresses a vessel that is submerged, grounded, displaced, or otherwise difficult to retrieve. Removal takes the boat out of its current location. Disposal addresses a vessel being permanently discarded. Your estimate should identify which of these tasks are included.
No. AAA Boat Salvage does not sell boat parts. Our services focus on boat removal, marine salvage, sunken boat recovery, and paid junk boat disposal throughout Florida.
No. AAA Boat Salvage does not buy boats. If you need an unwanted or damaged vessel removed, contact us for an estimate for paid removal, recovery, or disposal based on its condition and location.
AAA Boat Salvage provides boat removal, marine salvage, emergency boat removal, emergency marine salvage, sunken boat recovery, and paid junk boat disposal throughout Florida. We assess the vessel’s condition, exact location, and access before confirming the scope and availability.
Contact AAA Boat Salvage with the vessel type, approximate length, condition, and location. Suitability depends on the hull, recovery requirements, and available equipment access. A description and photographs help us determine whether we can take on the specific job; capacity is confirmed through assessment.
Ask whether the company handles your specific situation, including submerged vessels, storm damage, or junk boat disposal. Confirm service coverage, site-access requirements, current availability, and what the estimate includes. AAA Boat Salvage provides boat removal, marine salvage, sunken boat recovery, and paid junk boat disposal throughout Florida.
If you are comparing these providers, request an estimate for the same vessel, location, and scope of work. AAA Boat Salvage provides boat removal, marine salvage, emergency boat removal, sunken boat recovery, and paid junk boat disposal throughout Florida. Ask each company to confirm whether your specific job includes recovery from the water, removal from the property, and disposal. Compare access requirements, current availability, exclusions, and any conditions that could change the price. For an urgent situation, confirm availability directly with the company you choose. To request an AAA Boat Salvage estimate, share the boat’s location, approximate length, condition, and photographs.
Explain what has changed and provide the vessel’s current location.
Contact emergency responders first. At sea, contact the Coast Guard on VHF Channel 16; do not rely on an estimate form or email for distress assistance. Once immediate safety is addressed, contact us about the vessel recovery request.
Yes. Call 888-702-5785 with the exact location, current condition, and access details. We assess the situation and discuss crew and equipment availability. Arrival time must be confirmed for the specific request.
Yes. Send recent photographs showing what the hull is resting on and the surrounding access. Include an address or map pin and identify who controls entry to the property. Ground conditions and hull position affect the removal approach.
Provide the current location rather than only the previous slip number. Explain when it moved and when the photographs were taken. Let us know if the position or access conditions continue to change.
Call to discuss current availability and site conditions. Weather, safe access, road or waterway restrictions, and crew and equipment availability can affect attendance. A request does not confirm a particular arrival time.
Do not attempt to handle or disperse the spill. Contact the appropriate emergency or pollution-response authority and tell us about the condition when requesting recovery. Fuel or hazardous materials can change the response and work required.
Contact AAA Boat Salvage after the active incident has been addressed by emergency responders and access has been cleared by the responsible authority. Describe the damage, location, and any known remaining hazards. We review the hull condition and site information before confirming whether we can undertake removal.
Wide photographs and accurate location details help define the recovery.
Yes. Provide the vessel’s approximate length, position, water depth if known, and photographs from an accessible place. Hull condition, submersion, and surrounding access determine the recovery requirements.
Include the whole vessel position, dock, pilings, neighboring boats, and possible equipment access. Close-ups of damage are helpful, but they do not show the available working area by themselves.
Describe what the hull is resting on, the depth if known, and whether conditions change with the water level. Send wide photographs and a map pin. Do not assume shallow water makes a recovery straightforward.
We can assess it. Photograph the lift, hull supports, pilings, and surrounding access. Tell us what you know about the lift’s condition so the plan does not assume it can be used.
That must be assessed for the particular job. A nearby access point may have restrictions or insufficient room for the required equipment. Share the actual vessel position and any access information available.
Contact the recovery provider before changing the boat’s position. An unstable hull or damaged support can make a move hazardous and change the recovery requirements. Describe the current condition and take photographs only from a safe location.
Send the details you do know: vessel type, approximate length, exact position, and recent photographs. Tell us which measurements are unknown. We can discuss what additional information or site assessment is needed rather than treating an estimate as a confirmed measurement.
Identify the hull, supports, trailer, and desired cleanup separately.
Yes. We provide an estimate based on the vessel’s condition, size, access, removal requirements, and disposal scope. Ask what is included before the work is arranged.
We can assess removal from residential and storage properties. Send photographs showing the hull, supports, entrance, ground conditions, and space available for loading.
Yes. Describe the trailer’s condition and provide photographs of its frame, tires, hitch, and the boat’s supports. The removal plan should not assume the trailer is usable.
Yes. Tell us how the hull is supported, its approximate dimensions, and whether equipment can reach it. Loading requirements are reviewed before the scope is confirmed.
Only if it is included in the agreed scope. Identify the trailer when requesting an estimate and ask whether its removal or disposal is covered.
Send the entrance width if known and photos of the access route. Describe ground conditions and room beside the boat. Discuss access arrangements before altering fences or supports.
Specify the cleanup you need. A boat-removal estimate should identify whether associated debris and cleanup are included, and what remains outside the agreed work.
Clarify who controls the vessel and who can provide site access.
Start by describing your relationship to the property and the vessel, and provide any ownership or authorization documents available. We can discuss the physical work, but the authority to remove or dispose of the boat must be clarified before scheduling.
Do not assume that appearance gives you ownership or authority to remove it. Florida’s abandoned-vessel process involves law enforcement and title requirements. Contact FWC or the appropriate local authority for guidance on the specific vessel.
Tell us that at the start. We cannot determine ownership from a photograph or bypass authorization requirements. Seek guidance from the relevant titling authority, law enforcement, or a qualified legal adviser before arranging disposal.
Yes. Identify the authorized contact, the vessel location, and who controls site access. Include the available vessel information, access windows, and any required project documentation.
Yes. List each vessel separately with its approximate length, condition, and location. Identify which boats need recovery, disposal, or both so the work can be scoped clearly.
Do not assume it does. Describe damage to the dock or lift separately. The estimate should identify the vessel work and any agreed related tasks.
Use clear vessel details to help us assess your request.
There is no single price that fits every vessel. Length, hull condition, submersion, access, lifting requirements, disposal, and agreed cleanup influence the estimate. Send the location and photographs for assessment.
Photos can help start the assessment. We may need more information or an on-site review before confirming the scope and price. Include wide views of the vessel and equipment access as well as visible damage.
Coverage depends on your policy and the insurer’s decision. Contact your insurer or adjuster about authorization and documentation requirements. Tell us which project photos or records they request before the work is arranged.
Discuss this when arranging the job. We need an agreed plan for access, authorization, and a reachable contact. Attendance requirements depend on the site and the work.
We serve the entire state of Florida. This includes coastal marinas, private docks, waterfront properties, inland yards, and storage sites. Send the actual vessel address or map pin even if your community is not listed on a local page.
Use the short form below or call 888-702-5785. Include the vessel location, approximate length, condition, access information, and your requested timing. For an urgent situation, call to discuss availability rather than relying on a form for immediate attendance.
You can start the request remotely by sharing vessel details and photographs. Before scheduling, agree on who can authorize the work, provide access, and answer questions at the site. Remote coordination depends on those arrangements and the specific removal requirements.
Compare the written scope as well as the price. Check whether recovery, lifting, removal, trailer handling, disposal, cleanup, and requested documentation are included. Ask about exclusions and conditions that could change the estimate so you are comparing the same work.
Use the form for an estimate request. Have the vessel location, approximate length, condition, and access details ready. If you have photographs, mention them and we will confirm how to send them.

I had the unfortunate pleasure of dealing with the owner Kenneth today. Unfortunate because my in laws got stranded but a pleasure because Kenneth was absolutely amazing. My in laws were 3 hrs from home when they got stranded on the river and the loving children we are were scrambling first thing Saturday morning to find them help. Kenneth was quick and on top of getting their location to get them help. Being that they've been stuck there since last night Mr Kenneth was also quick to ask if they had food and water and needed any supplies. When things where then sorted out and a different company was on the way Mr Kenneth understood and was still very worried about my inlaws getting proper supplies and help. Though we didn't get to use his service I 10/10 recommend due to customer service.Posted on Google![]()

Lesson number 1: Don’t ever put anything in your name for a family member. For 3.5yrs I have stared at an old boat in the yard that said family member finally gave away for free. Sounds great, right? Not when you are sitting at work and see on your cameras that said boat has suddenly reappeared in your front yard. Family member back in their home state, boat now in my front yard…panic attack. Several in fact. The boat was no longer in any kind of donation condition and this isn’t as easy to get rid of as a car or motorcycle which have junk yards. After panic searching and secretly crying in the bathroom at work (several times), I came across AAA Boat Salvage. I reached out for a quote and Kenneth got back to me super fast. He searched my address and let me know he could remove it the next day. He told me what to expect, they sent over paperwork for me to sign, and we confirmed an ETA for the next day. Kenneth kept me posted as he was coming from 2hrs away and I was able to coordinate with work to be home to meet him. He quickly connected the boat, was very professional and while he was prepping for safe transport he had me connect with the office for payment of removal services and my final copies of the necessary documents releasing me from ownership and liability of the boat. I feel much better knowing they will properly strip down the boat and dispose of it correctly and in accordance with environmental laws. It is painful to have to pay to dispose of a old vessel that was never meant to be my problem, but giving away something for free doesn’t mean someone will responsibly remove you from ownership and liability (or won’t dump it back in your yard at a future date like me). The nightmares of this eyesore are over, and Kenneth and the office team kept me sane and made this so easy for me .I am more than happy to recommend them!Posted on Google![]()
