Need that car out of your driveway in Metro Atlanta fast? If you call Wheels of Change before noon on a weekday, we can usually arrange same-day pickup in most Atlanta metro areas — and almost always within 24–48 hours anywhere in Georgia and across the U.S. Your car does not need to run, pass emissions, or be insured. A licensed tow truck comes to you, the pickup is free, and you receive a tax receipt for your donation to Heritage for the Blind (EIN 58-2164446).
Here’s how it works in Atlanta: you start with a quick call or 2-minute online form. Our dispatch team (operating Monday–Saturday) confirms your details and works to schedule the earliest available time window — often same-day in city and suburban areas like Buckhead, Midtown, Decatur, Marietta, Smyrna, Sandy Springs, Roswell, and Stone Mountain. You’ll need a signed title ready. On pickup day, the tow driver meets you at your home, apartment, or workplace, handles the loading, and leaves you with the donation paperwork. Your car is gone, your space is clear, and your gift helps provide services to people who are blind or visually impaired.

Monday–Saturday dispatch, nationwide coverage
Our professional dispatch team works Monday through Saturday, coordinating pickups across Metro Atlanta, all of Georgia, and nationwide, so you’re not waiting days just to hear back about a time.
Non-running and damaged cars welcome
Your car does not need to run, drive, pass inspection, or have current tags for same-day or next-day service. We routinely tow vehicles with mechanical issues, accident damage, or failed emissions tests.
No inspection, repairs, or out-of-pocket costs
You don’t have to fix anything or get an inspection before donating. Towing is always free to you. Once the truck leaves, your space is clear and you’re on your way to receiving a tax-deductible donation receipt.
