If you’re ready to donate your vehicle but prefer to do so during the weekend, Drive to Give has you covered. Our Saturday car donation pickups run from 8 AM to 4 PM, providing plenty of time for you to schedule a convenient removal. If Sundays work better for you, be aware that availability depends on your specific metro area, so it's good to check with us early.
To secure a weekend pickup, please submit your donation request by Friday afternoon. The more details you provide, the easier it will be for our team to coordinate your donation. Weekend slots fill up quickly, especially around major holidays, so don’t hesitate to reach out and confirm your timing!

Honest expectations
While we aim to provide weekend car donation pickups, immediate arrangements aren't guaranteed for all requests. Saturday pickups are more widely available, while Sundays may be limited depending on your local area and dispatcher availability. Major holidays will also see our services paused, so please plan ahead. We recommend submitting your request early to avoid any disappointment.
How pickup logistics work
Our team coordinates with a network of tow operators to ensure your vehicle is picked up efficiently. Once you confirm your request, our dispatcher will work to assign an available operator. Communication is key: expect a call to confirm details and to inform you of your operator's estimated arrival time.
Charlotte pickup notes
In the Charlotte area and across North Carolina, we have a robust network of tow operators to serve urban, suburban, and rural locations. However, each region may have specific regulations regarding parking and access. Be sure to inform us of any HOA rules or parking restrictions in your area to facilitate smooth pickup logistics.
