What you don't need to worry about

How pickup works for damaged vehicles

1

Schedule Your Pickup

Call us or fill out our online form to schedule a convenient time for your pickup. We’ll work with you to find a time that fits your schedule.

2

Prepare for Pickup

Before our flatbed tow truck arrives, please secure any loose parts on the vehicle. If fluids are leaking, we will use a drip tray to protect your property.

3

Flatbed Tow Arrives

Our professional towing service will arrive with a flatbed truck, as this is the only way to safely transport wrecked vehicles. We take special care during the loading process.

4

Complete the Donation

Once your vehicle is loaded, we'll complete the necessary paperwork, ensuring that you receive a donation receipt for your tax records.

Honest value expectations

When donating a wrecked vehicle, it’s important to set realistic expectations regarding the value you can receive. Typically, your vehicle's value might range from $300 to $1,500, based on its condition and retained-salvage title status. If it’s totaled and the insurance has paid you, that donation can feel like a bonus! Keep in mind that certain rare makes and models may yield a higher parts-harvest value, while vehicles with cosmetic-only damage can be valued closer to their clean-title equivalents.

Diagnose or donate?

If your car is severely damaged, you might be wondering whether to spend money on diagnostics or repairs. In many cases, it’s more beneficial to simply donate the vehicle as-is, especially if the insurance company has already compensated you. A diagnostics expense can add up quickly without guaranteeing a feasible repair. Your time and resources might be better invested in a new vehicle instead!

Denver pickup specifics

In Denver and across Colorado, flatbed towing services are readily available, making it easy to arrange a convenient pickup for your damaged vehicle. Colorado's abandoned vehicle ordinances allow for the quick and efficient disposal of non-running cars, meaning you won’t have to worry about legal or logistical headaches. Our local towing partners are experienced in handling all types of vehicle donations, ensuring a smooth process for you.
