If you’re in Lancaster County and need your car gone today or tomorrow, Lancaster Motor Gifts can usually make it happen. In most metropolitan areas, same-day pickup is available when you call before early afternoon on a weekday. Next-day pickup is available in virtually all 50 states. Your car does not need to run, drive, or pass inspection. A licensed tow truck comes to your address, hauls it away for free, and you receive a tax-deduction receipt for your donation to Heritage for the Blind.
We know schedules are tight in Lancaster. Whether you’re in Lancaster city, Manheim Township, Lititz, Ephrata, Millersville, Mountville, East Petersburg, or just off Route 30 near Rockvale or Greenfield, we coordinate with local towers every Monday–Saturday.
