Donating your car can be a rewarding experience, especially when you can do it over the weekend. Whether it’s a Saturday when we’re available from 8 AM to 4 PM or a limited Sunday pickup, Cruise Forward makes it easy for you to contribute. Simply fill out our form, and our team will assist you in securing a time that works best for you.
We understand your schedule is important, which is why we recommend getting your donation request in by Friday afternoon to secure a weekend slot.

Honest expectations
While we aim to make weekend pickups as smooth as possible, please note that same-day scheduling is not guaranteed across all areas. Our Saturday service is generally reliable from 8 AM to 4 PM, but Sunday pickups depend on regional dispatch availability. Major holidays are typically closed for pickups. Ensure you submit your request by Friday afternoon for the best chance at weekend service.
How pickup logistics work
Our dispatchers work closely with a network of local tow operators to coordinate your vehicle pickup. Communication is key; expect to receive confirmation emails and calls leading up to your scheduled time. If there are any changes in your pickup slot, our team will inform you promptly to minimize any inconvenience.
Mobile pickup notes
In Mobile, Alabama, our tow operators are familiar with both urban and suburban logistics. This ensures efficiency, whether your car is parked on a busy street or within a neighborhood. Keep in mind that certain areas may have specific HOA regulations or street-parking rules that could affect the pickup. We recommend confirming these details during scheduling to avoid delays.
