How pickup works for damaged vehicles
Schedule Pickup
Once you’ve completed the donation form, we’ll contact you to arrange pickup. Choose a time that works best for you, and our team will confirm the details.
Prep Your Vehicle
Before our tow truck arrives, please secure any loose parts on the vehicle. This ensures a safe pickup and minimizes any potential further damage during transportation.
Flatbed Tow Arrives
Our flatbed towing service will arrive at the scheduled time. Since your vehicle is damaged, we use a flatbed to safely transport it without causing additional harm.
Complete the Donation
Once the vehicle is loaded, you’ll receive a receipt for your donation. This document is essential for tax purposes and allows you to claim your charitable contribution.
Honest value expectations
When it comes to the value of your wrecked car donation, it can vary based on several factors. Typically, vehicles with a totaled or retained-salvage title can offer a donation range of $300 to $1,500, depending on the severity of the damage. Remember, rare makes and models may hold a higher parts-harvest value, while those with cosmetic-only damage may be valued closer to clean-title standards. We encourage donors to have realistic expectations and understand that the value is often more about the vehicle's salvage potential than repair feasibility.
Diagnose or donate?
Considering a diagnostic assessment before donating? It might save you some money, but remember that significant costs can quickly add up, especially if the vehicle is severely damaged. If your primary aim is to rid yourself of the hassle and receive a tax benefit, donating as-is often makes more sense than investing in diagnostics and repairs. Save your time and money by choosing to donate instead.
