---2026 Removal Deadlines---

Please note that we do take out the majority prior to these deadlines on many lakes. Our recommendation is to remove your pontoons and boats when you are done using them vs waiting a month or more after you are done using them as the lake levels tend to drop and batteries go dead during that time frame.

Please makes sure to do the following to prepare:
-Crank Lifts Up
-Remove any accessories that you don't want to be charged for removing
-Remove any power cords that need to be removed
-Leave chain, ropes etc for holding docks and lifts to hills on steep banks.
-If your boat or pontoon is stuck on the lift please let us know asap so we can assist if needed.

*If you do not see your lake on this list then have ready by Oct 12th.

While we woke up to snowflakes falling this morning, 2026 open water season is approaching and the crew is geared up and ready!
The past few low water years have presented their issues, we will be doing our best to account for spring time lake levels when installing. Make sure that any special requests are emailed over to [email protected] before we start installing so we can do our best to accommodate.
We are about 3 weeks away from average ice out and we will be starting the day the first lake opens up!

*Official requests need to be made via email (not facebook comments)

We hope everyone has a had a nice summer and as fall approaches we wanted to post our deadlines for the lakes we service. Please note that we take out many of them prior to these dates and it is best to prepare your docks and lifts for removal when you are done using your lakeshore equipment instead of waiting until the deadline.
Docks - remove any accessories or decking you do not want to be charged for.
Lifts - remove covers and crank lifts into the up position.
Storage location- if you need a specific spot left open please be sure to make a note where not to put it or use marking flags where you would like lifts set.
Enjoy the rest of the open water season and reach out with any questions.
Pricing and deadlines are also posted on our website.

Happy spring everyone! Andrew and his crew were finally able to find some open lakes today to officially kick off the spring installation season! Please remember, the crew is working sun up to sun down during the week to ensure everything gets installed as quickly as possible. Andrew is hoping to have most docks and lifts installed by opener, but there will be a few lakes he will not get to until the week after. We appreciate your understanding during this busy time of the year and we hope you have a wonderful summer. As always, if we removed your items last fall, we will be putting them back in this spring. If there are any changes that need to be made, please email Andrew ASAP. Thanks!

Our hearts are broken as we mourn the loss of our beloved brother and invaluable member of the crew, Blake Wheeler Herman.

Blake had a heart of gold and a smile that could light up any room. He was an incredibly hard worker and took pride in everything he did, no matter how big or small the task was. When he wasn't hard at work on the barge, you would find him hanging out with friends and family, who he loved more than anything. He loved spending time outdoors and was always ready for the next adventure.

Please keep our family, Blake's family and friends, and all those that loved him in your thoughts as we navigate this unimaginable loss. We will carry his memory forever, but our hearts will never be the same. We love you Blake!

It is with heavy hearts that we share the devastating news of t… Teresa Herman needs your support for In Loving Memory of Blake Herman: Help Us Honor His Life
