Florida, Georgia, Alabama & the CarolinasAAA Boat Salvage provides professional boat removal services across Florida, plus Georgia, Alabama, North Carolina, and South Carolina, including abandoned boat removal, storm-damaged boat removal, sunken boat recovery, boat towing and transport, junk boat disposal, and insurance-related boat recovery. Every job starts with a conversation about your specific situation.
Every boat removal situation is a little different. Use this quick guide to find the service that matches yours, or call us and we'll help you figure it out.
| Your Situation | Recommended Service |
|---|---|
| A boat was left on my property or dock | Abandoned Boat Removal |
| My boat was wrecked or sunk in a storm | Storm-Damaged Boat Removal |
| My boat is sunk or partially underwater | Sunken Boat Recovery |
| I need my boat moved to another location | Boat Transport |
| My boat is junk and needs to go | Boat Disposal & Junk Boat Removal |
| My boat removal is tied to an insurance claim | Insurance Boat Recovery |
A boat left behind by a previous owner, tenant, or renter can turn into a liability fast, sitting on a seawall, tied up at a dock, or abandoned in a canal. We remove abandoned boats from private property, waterfront lots, and shared docks throughout Florida, Georgia, Alabama, North Carolina, and South Carolina.
Hurricane and tropical storm season leaves boats grounded, capsized, or wrecked against docks and seawalls. We remove storm-damaged boats from yards, marinas, and waterways across Florida and the Southeast, working around the debris and access challenges that usually come with storm cleanup.
A fully or partially submerged boat requires a careful, staged approach, not just a tow line. We evaluate the site, the boat's position, and water depth before recovering sunken vessels from canals, marinas, and open water throughout Florida and neighboring states.
Sometimes a boat doesn't need to be scrapped. It needs to be moved. We provide boat towing and overland transport for vessels that need to be relocated to a new property, storage yard, or destination, within Florida or across state lines to Georgia, Alabama, North Carolina, and South Carolina.
When a boat is beyond repair, it just becomes something to deal with. We provide junk boat removal and disposal for hulls sitting in yards, on trailers, or at the water's edge, so you don't have to figure out how to get rid of it yourself.
If your boat removal is connected to an insurance claim, we handle the physical recovery and removal side so you can focus on the claim itself. Share the details of your policy situation and boat condition, and we'll walk you through what we need to move forward.
From the Panhandle to the Keys, plus service in GA, AL, NC & SC.
Boats on property, at the dock, or in the water. We evaluate each one individually.
Removal, salvage, towing, and disposal coordinated through a single call.

Kenneth was prompt, fast, efficient and personable throughout the whole process of deciding on a salvager to getting our boat safely hauled away. Hi It was obvious he's been doing this a while. Helper Don was friendly and funny throughout. Thanks guys for making a difficult task seem easy. DavidPosted on Google![]()

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![]()

It depends on your boat's condition and location. Abandoned or unwanted boats typically need standard removal, damaged or sunken boats need recovery or salvage, and boats being relocated need towing or transport. If you're not sure, call us and describe the situation, and we'll point you to the right service.
Yes. We coordinate removal, salvage, towing, transport, and disposal under one point of contact, so you're not managing multiple vendors for a single boat.
