Honest expectations

Please note that weekend and after-hours pickups are possible but may require additional coordination. In rural areas, towing might take longer due to distance and local operator availability. Always best to plan your donation ahead of time!

Vermont pickup notes
In Vermont, our towing services cover most urban, suburban, and rural areas. However, factors like local HOA permits or street-parking regulations can affect the pickup process. In densely populated areas, we have quick access to multiple tow operators, while rural regions may require more planning due to fewer available services. Ensure your vehicle location is accessible for the tow truck.
