Are you looking to donate your car but find yourself constrained by weekday schedules? Our weekend car donation pickup service at Appalachian Autos is designed for your convenience. Whether it's a Saturday or Sunday, we aim to make the donation process as smooth and hassle-free as possible. Just keep in mind that typical Saturday slots fill up quickly, so it's good to plan ahead.
Please note that while Saturdays are broadly available from 8 AM to 4 PM, our Sunday pickups depend on regional dispatcher availability. Major holidays will generally see no pickups, so if you're targeting a weekend slot, ensuring your request is in by Friday afternoon is essential to secure your desired date.

On the day of your scheduled pickup, a tow truck will arrive within the agreed time window. For Saturday, you can expect service between 8 AM and 4 PM, and Sunday times will vary depending on dispatcher availability.
Receive Documentation
Once your vehicle is loaded, we will issue a signed receipt for your records. Remember, the IRS 1098-C will be mailed to you after the sale of the vehicle.

Honest expectations
While we strive to offer seamless weekend pickups, it’s crucial to set realistic expectations. Our Saturday slots typically fill up, so early planning is recommended. Sunday pickups are limited to certain areas and depend on dispatcher availability, so they may not be feasible for every donor. Additionally, be aware that your IRS documentation will be mailed to you after the vehicle is sold, not handed over at pickup.
How pickup logistics work
Pickup logistics involve coordination with our network of local tow operators. Once your request is confirmed, a dispatcher will communicate with you regarding exact pickup times and any specifics that may arise. We prioritize clear and timely communication to ensure a smooth collection process for your vehicle.
West Virginia pickup notes
In West Virginia, the density of tow operators varies by region. Urban areas may see quicker availability, while rural locations could encounter longer wait times. Additionally, local regulations, such as HOA permits or street-parking restrictions, may impact your pickup. Therefore, please ensure that your vehicle is easily accessible for our tow team.
