We understand the frustration that comes with owning a damaged vehicle. Whether it's post-collision wreckage or a serious accident, the thought of repairs can feel overwhelming. But here at Orlando Auto Ally, we want you to know that we accept damaged vehicles—yes, even those that are wrecked and bearing the marks of an accident. You can donate your car as it is, and we’ll handle the rest.
When you choose to donate your wrecked car, you can expect a simple, straightforward process. You won't need to worry about repairing the vehicle or paying for towing; we will take care of everything. Plus, you could turn a seemingly lost cause into a tax-deductible contribution, allowing you to make an impact while clearing out your driveway.

How pickup works for damaged vehicles
Schedule a Pickup
Once you decide to donate, simply reach out to us, and we will schedule a convenient time for our towing service to come to you.
Prepare Your Vehicle
Before our tow truck arrives, please secure any loose parts on the vehicle. If there are any leaking fluids, we will use a drip-tray during transport.
Flatbed Tow Arrives
Our towing team will arrive with a flatbed truck as it is necessary for safely transporting wrecked vehicles. We cannot use wheel-tows for damaged cars.
Pickup Process
Our team will handle the loading of your car onto the flatbed, ensuring that it is secured properly for transport. You just need to sign a few papers.
Honest value expectations
When it comes to the value of your wrecked car, it’s essential to have realistic expectations. Depending on the severity of the damage and whether the vehicle has a retained-salvage title, you might see a donation value ranging from $300 to $1,500. Rare makes and models with some salvageable parts can even fetch higher values. However, if the damage is cosmetic only, you may experience values closer to those of a clean title. We are committed to being transparent about what you can expect.
Diagnose or donate?
If you’re torn between spending money to diagnose the issues or simply donating your vehicle, consider this: diagnostic expenses can quickly add up and may not guarantee a feasible repair solution. By donating your wrecked vehicle instead, you avoid additional costs and secure a convenient solution without obligation. In many cases, the vehicle’s current condition merits donation over diagnosis.
Orlando pickup specifics
Being located in Orlando, Florida, we are surrounded by a high density of tow operators experienced with flatbed pickups, ensuring efficient service for your donation. It’s important to know that Florida’s abandoned vehicle ordinances also allow for easy transfer of ownership when your car is no longer running. Donating your vehicle helps you avoid potential legal issues related to abandoned vehicles.
