How do I get ready for the tow driver and what can I expect?
Please remove all personal belongings from the vehicle and have the title ready at the time of the pick-up (unless otherwise directed). The tow operator will pick up the title, keys and vehicle.

Should you not receive a receipt, please give our Donor Support Team a call and we will get one out to you.
Does my title need to be notarized?
Whether or not you need notarization depends on the state that holds your vehicle title. Currently, our vehicle donation program is currently aware that notarization is a requirement for the following states: Arizona, Kentucky, Louisiana, Montana, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, and Wyoming. However, each stateās requirements are subject to change. If you would like to confirm if your state requires notarized title transfers, go to your stateās motor vehicle departmentās website and click on your state to see your stateās title transfer requirements. (Notarization is used to deter fraud by ensuring proper identification has been provided and approved prior to signing over the title, and some states require notarization of the title prior to donating).
When should I sign over the title?
Please wait to mark the title until after you have discussed it with the tow vendor as they will assist you in showing you the correct location in which to sign the title.
