Eden Prairie, MN: 16 ft Smoker Craft Gone in One Morning

A 16 ft Smoker Craft 16 aluminum fishing boat had been sitting in an Eden Prairie driveway for years, green stain running down the hull from pine needles and weather. The trailer tongue jack was bent, the whole rig was sunk into the gravel, and moving it meant threading a heavy-duty wrecker between the house and a fence line with maybe two feet of clearance on either side. We called ahead to the crew in Hennepin County, mapped the angle we'd need to work with, and brought in a rotator truck instead of our standard wrecker so we could lift and rotate the trailer clear without backing straight out. The aluminum hull itself was solid under the staining, and once we got the rig loaded and secured, the whole job ran under an hour from first chains to rolling out. We hauled it to the metal recycler downstate where the aluminum went into the scrap stream and the steel frame got sorted accordingly. No title in the drawer, handled per Minnesota rules. The driveway was clear by mid-morning. Crews cover all of Hennepin County: Minneapolis, Bloomington, Brooklyn Park, Plymouth, Edina, Minnetonka. We handle pickups across the whole metro, and a 16-footer like yours moves fast from Eden Prairie. Most jobs happen same week. A lot of our calls come in fall when people pull boats out of storage before winter, or spring when they're clearing space before the season starts. That's when the schedule fills up, but we still move quick.
