Step-by-step timeline
Submit the Donation Form
Fill out our simple online form with your vehicle details, including make, model, and condition. This initiates the donation process.
Confirm Pickup Schedule
Our dispatcher will contact you to verify details and schedule a pickup time that works for you, typically within 24-48 hours.
Prepare the Vehicle
Ensure you have the title and keys ready. Clear any personal belongings and make sure the vehicle is accessible for the tow truck.
Tow Truck Arrives
On the scheduled day, our tow operator will arrive within the agreed time window. They’ll assess the vehicle and assist with the signing of the title.
Receive Tax Receipt
After the vehicle is auctioned, you’ll receive an IRS 1098-C form to claim your tax deduction. This is mailed after the sale of your vehicle.
What you need ready

- Keys for the vehicle
- Signed release of liability form
- Confirmation of pickup address
- Clear access path for the tow truck
Honest expectations
While we strive for efficient scheduling, please understand that same-day pickups may not always be feasible, particularly in rural areas or during peak times. Weekend and after-hours pickups are possible but may take longer to arrange. Expect a window of time for the tow truck's arrival based on driver availability and local traffic conditions. We’ll keep you informed throughout the process, but don’t hesitate to ask questions if you’re unsure about timelines or logistics.
How pickup logistics work
Our dispatch team works diligently with a network of professional tow operators to coordinate your vehicle pickup efficiently. Each operator is familiar with the local area, ensuring prompt service. Once you submit your donation form, communication is key; you’ll receive direct contact from our dispatcher to confirm details, and you can expect updates leading up to the towing appointment.
Lancaster pickup notes
In Lancaster, we have a robust network of towing services to cover urban, suburban, and rural areas effectively. However, in extreme rural locations, response times may vary. Additionally, please be aware of any local regulations, such as HOA permits or street parking rules that could impact pickup. We recommend ensuring that your vehicle is parked in a manner that allows for easy access to avoid delays.
