How pickup works for damaged vehicles
Schedule Your Pickup
Simply fill out our online donation form, and we will reach out to schedule a convenient time for pickup. Rest assured, we can handle your wrecked vehicle wherever it's located.
Prepare Your Vehicle
Before our towing service arrives, please secure any loose parts to prevent them from causing additional issues during the towing process. If fluids are leaking, we'll utilize a drip tray to contain any spills.
Flatbed Towing
Since your vehicle is non-running, we'll arrange for a flatbed truck to transport it safely. This keeps your vehicle secure and avoids any further damage that might occur with conventional towing.
Documentation and Processing
Once your vehicle is picked up, we will handle all necessary paperwork, ensuring you're provided with a receipt for your donation. This will be useful for your tax records as well.
Honest value expectations
When it comes to the value you can expect from your wrecked car donation, it can vary widely. Typically, vehicles that are deemed totaled with a retained-salvage title may be valued between $300 and $1,500. Factors such as the extent of the damage and the potential for parts harvesting, especially on rare or sought-after models, can influence this range. It's important to note that cosmetic-only damage might get closer to what a clean title vehicle would fetch. We aim to provide transparency about these values while ensuring you still walk away feeling good about your contribution.
Diagnose or donate?
Before you decide to spend money on diagnostics, consider the benefits of donating your wrecked vehicle directly. Investing in repairs may not be worth it, especially if you have already received an ACV payout from your insurance company. By donating, you can turn an unfortunate situation into a positive outcome without incurring any additional costs. Often, donating is a quicker and more beneficial route than troubleshooting and repairing a vehicle that may not be worth the effort.
