Step-by-step timeline
Submit Your Donation Form
Fill out our online form with your vehicle details by 10 AM for same-day requests. Provide accurate information to facilitate scheduling.
Dispatcher Review
Our dispatcher reviews your request, considering factors like your car's location and condition, and confirms availability for same-day pickup.
Tow Operator Coordination
Once confirmed, we dispatch a tow operator from our network, which is dense in the San Francisco metro area to ensure quick response times.
Pickup Appointment Confirmation
You will receive a confirmation call with an estimated arrival time for the tow truck, typically within a few hours of your form submission.

The tow operator arrives, collects the vehicle, and provides you with a signed release. We’ll mail you the IRS 1098-C after the sale.
What you need ready

- Keys to the vehicle
- Signed release form
- Confirmation of pickup address
- Clear access path for the tow truck
Honest expectations
While we strive for same-day pickups, several factors influence this possibility. If you submit your request after our morning cutoff, or if your vehicle is in a challenging location, we may not be able to accommodate same-day service. Additionally, if the title is not available or the vehicle is non-operational and difficult to access, it may hinder our ability to schedule quickly.
How pickup logistics work
Our coordination starts with a dispatch system that connects with a reliable network of tow operators. Depending on your location within San Francisco, the dispatcher will assess which towing service can respond fastest. We prioritize clear communication with you throughout the process, so you’re informed every step of the way, including updates on the tow operator's arrival.
San Francisco pickup notes
In San Francisco, our tow operator network is highly developed, ensuring quicker pickups in the urban core compared to rural areas. However, be aware of local regulations such as HOA permits and street parking rules that may affect the pickup. If your vehicle is parked on the street or in a permit-required area, please inform us to avoid delays during the towing process.
