At Cruise Forward, we believe that helping our community shouldn’t be complicated. Our vehicle donation program is designed to make a meaningful impact while also making the process easy and straightforward for you. Unlike national brands, we focus specifically on the needs of our Mobile neighbors. By donating your car, you’re not just freeing up space in your driveway; you’re also supporting a vital service that connects local residents with essential benefits programs like SNAP and Alabama Medicaid.
The full process
Inquire About Donation
Give us a call or visit our website to start the donation process. Our friendly team will guide you through the initial steps and explain how your donation supports our Mobile community. You’ll learn about the benefits of donating your vehicle and how it helps connect residents to essential services in the area.
Provide Vehicle Details
We’ll ask for some details about your vehicle, such as its make, model, year, and condition. This information helps us understand how to best proceed with your donation. Whether your car is in working order or needs some repairs, we welcome vehicles of all types. Your generosity will directly benefit those in Mobile who rely on our services.
Schedule Pickup
Once we have your vehicle details, we’ll schedule a convenient pickup time that works for you. We know Mobile is a busy place, so we aim to be flexible and accommodating. During this step, we’ll also review any special instructions you might have regarding the pickup. We're here to make it as easy as possible!
Pickup Day Arrives
On the scheduled day, our team will arrive to pick up your vehicle at the designated location. You won’t have to worry about a thing; we'll handle all the logistics. This is a hassle-free experience for you, and you’ll be contributing to a cause that benefits your fellow Mobile residents. We appreciate your willingness to help.
Transport Your Vehicle
After picking up your vehicle, we’ll transport it to a local facility where it will either be auctioned or recycled. We ensure that the process aligns with our commitment to the community and embraces environmentally friendly practices. Every vehicle we receive plays a crucial role in supporting the benefits research service we provide.
Auction or Recycling
Your vehicle will either be auctioned off to the highest bidder or recycled responsibly, depending on its condition. The funds generated from this process go directly to supporting our mission of connecting Mobile residents with vital assistance programs. Your contribution not only helps those in need; it also promotes sustainability in our local area.
Proceeds to Research Service
Funds generated from the auction or recycling process are directed towards our benefits-research service here in Mobile. This critical service helps residents navigate programs like TANF, WIC, and LIHEAP. By donating your vehicle, you’re playing a direct role in improving the lives of your neighbors and strengthening our community.
Receive Tax Receipt
After your vehicle is processed, we will send you a tax receipt for your generous donation. This enables you to benefit from a tax deduction, making it a win-win situation. We want to make sure that your giving back to the community also serves you in a beneficial way. Your support truly makes a difference!
Follow-Up and Impact
We’ll keep you updated on the impact your donation has made in Mobile. We love sharing stories about how your support has helped residents connect with essential services. As a valued donor, you’ll receive updates on our programs and upcoming initiatives that could also benefit you and your family.
