Ready to donate your car in Alabama today? With Alabamotion, you can start the process in about two minutes and, in most Alabama metro areas, we can pick up your vehicle the same day when you call before noon on a weekday. Otherwise, we’ll schedule your free tow for the next business day. A live coordinator for Heritage for the Blind is available Monday through Saturday to lock in your details and confirm your pickup window before you hang up.
Here’s how it works for donors across Alabama—from Birmingham (Hoover, Homewood, Trussville) and Huntsville (Madison, Decatur) to Montgomery, Mobile, Tuscaloosa, Auburn, and the Gulf Coast. You either complete the quick online form or call us directly. We’ll confirm your car’s year, make, model, condition, and exact location—whether it’s in your driveway, a apartment lot in Vestavia Hills, or a shop in Dothan. Your vehicle does not need to run; we send a flatbed truck at no cost to you. After pickup, the car is sold to benefit Heritage for the Blind, and within about 30 days you receive a written tax receipt that meets IRS Form 1098‑C requirements for donations valued over $500.

Receive your IRS-compliant tax receipt
