How pickup works for damaged vehicles
Schedule Your Pickup
Once you've confirmed your donation, we'll contact you to arrange a convenient time for our tow operator to pick up your vehicle. We operate in Daytona Beach, so our team is readily available.
Prepare Your Vehicle
Make sure your car is in a safe location for pickup. If you have a salvage or branded title, please have it accessible. You won’t need to provide the keys, but it helps if they're available.
Towing the Vehicle
Our professional tow operator will arrive on your scheduled date and time. They will handle the pickup process, ensuring a hassle-free experience for you.
Receive Your Confirmation
After your vehicle is picked up, you'll receive a receipt confirming your donation, which is important for your tax deduction paperwork.
Honest value expectations
When donating a totaled vehicle, it's important to have realistic expectations regarding its value. Typically, donations with a salvage or rebuilt title will be valued at 60-75% of the equivalent clean title vehicle. For most totaled sedans, you can expect a donation value between $400 and $2,000, and higher values for luxury vehicles or popular truck models due to parts demand. Remember, your generous donation directly supports BeachMoto Aid, and every bit helps our community!
Diagnose or donate?
Before deciding to invest in expensive diagnostics or repairs, consider the potential value of your vehicle in its current state. If the estimated repair costs significantly exceed the vehicle's worth—or if you're unsure about its condition—donating might be the more beneficial option. This way, you can avoid further expenses and still receive a tax deduction from your donation.
