What happens if you delay

⚠ Mounting Fines

Every day your vehicle remains parked, you risk accruing fines between $40 and $100 daily. Delays in action can result in significantly higher costs.

⚠ Impound Fees

If your vehicle is towed to an impound lot, daily storage fees can quickly add up, making future donations much more challenging and costly.

⚠ Abandonment Ordinance Penalties

In some cities, abandoning a vehicle can lead to fines of up to $1,000. Acting quickly protects you from these harsh penalties.

⚠ Complicated Donation Process

If your vehicle is towed, it complicates the donation process by introducing bidding within municipal auctions. Donating now prevents these hurdles.
