What you need ready

Honest expectations

While we strive for same-day towing, it's important to understand that immediate pickups might not be feasible in every area, especially in rural locations. Our service operates best within urban and suburban areas, where tow operators are readily available. Weekend and after-hours pickups can be arranged, but may take additional time to confirm. We appreciate your understanding as we work to accommodate your schedule and needs.

How pickup logistics work

Our dispatch team coordinates closely with a network of local tow operators to ensure efficient pickup. Once your donation is confirmed, we communicate your vehicle’s details to the nearest operator, who will contact you ahead of time to confirm the arrangement. Expect clear communication every step of the way to keep you informed and ready for the tow.

California pickup notes

In California, we're equipped to handle vehicle pickups from urban to suburban areas effectively, thanks to a dense network of tow operators. However, for more rural zones, we may face challenges in scheduling due to distance and availability. Always check local regulations concerning street parking or HOA permits if your vehicle is located in a restricted area, as this can affect the towing process.
