    Do you have an old boat lying around that you wish would disappear? Many people have a boat that they used to enjoy taking to the lake or river, but now either lack the time, the boat broke down, or both!

    Junk boat removal is not as simple as it sounds, but A+ Enterprises is the expert in removing your old boat. There is no such thing as a truly free junk boat removal service, but we are the next best thing!

    You might be wondering what to do with your old boat – we’ve heard every possible way someone can get rid of a boat. The cheapest (and hardest) solution would be to cut the boat into many small pieces and put it in garbage bags & take it out with the weekly trash.

    Why Use A+ Enterprises for your Boat Removal

    • Upfront pricing to haul away your old boat
    • We are professionals at removing & disposing of all boats

    • We can remove boats without trailers
    • We recycle & salvage as much as possible from boats we remove to keep as much as possible out of the landfill

    What Does Boat Removal Cost?

    We get asked about the cost of removing a boat every single day! There is not a flat-rate for boat removal, as we factor in the distance to it, size of the boat, and how we will transport it back into our pricing.

    With that said, on average, the cost to dispose of a 17′ boat in Northeast Pennsylvania is around $950. While that sounds like a lot of money, it really is not.

    We take care of all the hauling/transport, dismantling, recycling, and disposal for you and include all of that into our price. If you were to dispose of the boat yourself, it would cost $600+ to rent a dumpster and many hours to cut the boat up.

        I was looking for someone to haul away some things from a home remodeling project. I called A Plus and within 10 minutes I received an email and was able to call the owner right away. He sent his crew out the next day and took care of my hauling needs with a great price. I cannot tell you how pleased I am at the prompt, courteous service I received from both the owner and the crew. I highly recommend them. Mary Gadomski

      • Absolutely amazing! Highly recommended! I recently moved to Pennsylvania and purchased a fixer upper in Luzern County. I had a large pile of debris from the house that I needed to get rid of. I called A+ Junk Removal and spoke with Sal. He was extremely professional and very personable. He was able to work with my schedule which was greatly appreciated. Sal also contacted me through text to remind me of my scheduled appointment. Joe and Andrew showed up on time to give me an estimate for my junk pile. They gave me a great price and got right to work. Both Joe and Andrew were very polite and extremely professional. Very friendly as well. They did an amazing job! I couldn’t have asked for a better crew to come and do this job for me. I am extremely appreciative for Sal, Joe and Andrew. I highly recommend this company and will definitely use them again on the future. Thank you so much A+ Enterprises!

      Below is a step-by-step guide to how our process works to help you be rid of that old crusty boat. If you have any questions, simply call us any time at 570-373-9996.

      1. Fill out a contact form on this page or give us a call at 570-373-9996 and give us a description of your boat and situation.
      2. We will ask you questions such as: Where is the boat located? What size is the boat? Is it on a trailer? How are the tires? You can include this information in the contact form to make the process easier.
      3. Once we obtain all the information, we will give you a rough estimate on what it will cost to haul away your old boat. We cannot give you a firm price until we see the boat in-person.
      4. Once we agree on a rough estimate, we will set a day & time to make that boat disappear! We can have your old boat hauled away the same day you contact us if it is before 9am.
      5. We will confirm the price with a 100% accurate quote, and your boat is gone! We will load it up onto our truck and haul it back to our boat salvage facility to be recycled.
