How pickup works for damaged vehicles
Contact Us
Reach out to RideRebirth via our website or phone to schedule your pickup. A friendly representative will ask for details about your vehicle's condition and arrange a suitable time.
Prepare for Pickup
To ensure a smooth towing process, secure any loose parts and check for fluid leaks. If fluids are leaking, don’t worry; our towing service will bring a drip tray.
Flatbed Pickup
Since your vehicle is damaged and non-running, our towing team will arrive with a flatbed truck to safely transport your car. Please note that we cannot wheel-tow wrecked vehicles.
Sign the Paperwork
When our team arrives, you’ll need to sign a release form. This confirms your vehicle is ready for donation and allows us to handle everything moving forward.
Receive Confirmation
Once your vehicle is loaded, you'll receive confirmation of your donation. We’ll also provide you with the necessary tax documentation for your records.
Honest value expectations
When it comes to valuing your wrecked vehicle, there are several factors to consider. Most donations in this condition fall between $300 and $1,500, depending on the severity of the damage and whether the car has a retained-salvage title. If your vehicle is a rare make or model, its parts may have additional value. Keep in mind that cosmetic-only damage could yield a value closer to that of a clean title, but this varies significantly based on individual circumstances.
Diagnose or donate?
If you’re contemplating whether to spend money on diagnosing your vehicle before donating, think about your situation. For many, the costs of diagnostics and potential repairs may outweigh the benefits, especially if your insurance has already compensated you for the vehicle's actual cash value. In such cases, donating your car as is can be a more straightforward and financially sound choice.
Seattle pickup specifics
In Seattle and throughout Washington State, there are ample towing services equipped for flatbed pickups, making the donation process simple and efficient. Additionally, local abandoned vehicle ordinances allow for a straightforward towing process for non-running cars, ensuring your donation journey remains hassle-free.
