How pickup works in Savannah

Chatham, Bryan, Effingham counties + Georgia coast.

Our towing partner network is contracted in every metro and most rural areas. We dispatch the local tow company based on your specific address — you don't need to coordinate anything beyond signing the title at pickup. Standard pickup timeline is 48-72 hours from when you call.

Tax deduction for Savannah donors

Cars Helping Kids is a Georgia 501(c)(3) charity. Donors from anywhere in the US (including Georgia) qualify for the federal charitable tax deduction. Your deduction equals the actual sale price of your vehicle at auction, documented on IRS Form 1098-C which we email to you within 30-45 days of pickup.

Georgia state tax interaction: most states that have an income tax conform to federal charitable deduction rules. If Georgia has a state income tax and you itemize federally, the deduction also flows to your state return. Georgia residents should consult a tax preparer for specifics.

What vehicles we accept in Savannah

We accept cars, trucks, SUVs, motorcycles, RVs, boats, jet skis, ATVs, and select commercial vehicles — running or not, with or without clean title (varies by state). Even severely damaged vehicles (flood, fire, accident) are accepted; they sell at salvage auction.

What we typically can't accept: vehicles where the cost to tow exceeds the salvage value (very rare for any vehicle within Savannah metro), commercial vehicles over 26,000 lbs GVW, or anything stripped down to the frame.
