Are you ready to donate your car but need it picked up during the weekend? Alaska Wheels Forward offers a convenient Saturday car donation service from 8 AM to 4 PM, perfect for those who have busy weekdays. If you’re seeking to clear out your old vehicle without any hassle, our team ensures a hassle-free process, making it easy for you to give back.
While Saturday slots fill up quickly, Sunday pickups are available but depend on regional dispatcher availability. To secure your preferred time, it’s essential to submit your donation request by Friday afternoon to confirm your pickup. Please be aware that major holidays may affect our scheduling, so planning ahead is key!
Step-by-step timeline
Submit Your Donation Request
Fill out our donation form with your vehicle details and preferred pickup day. Make sure to do this by Friday for weekend slots!

Honest expectations
While we strive to accommodate weekend pickups, please understand that same-day or after-hours requests may not always be possible. Saturday pickups are the most reliable option, while Sunday service varies based on dispatcher availability in your area. Major holidays often result in service being unavailable, so if you plan to donate around these times, please contact us early for best results. Expect a seamless experience, but plan for potential adjustments based on our schedule.
How pickup logistics work
Our pickup logistics involve careful coordination with a network of local tow operators who are familiar with Alaska’s unique landscape. Our dispatchers communicate with these drivers to ensure timely arrivals and smooth operations. If any issues arise during your pickup, our team will reach out directly to you for quick resolution, ensuring that your donation process remains transparent and straightforward.
Alaska pickup notes
In Alaska, our service area extends across urban, suburban, and rural locations, which can affect tow operator availability. Generally, urban areas have denser coverage, making pickups easier to coordinate, while rural locations may require more time for the tow truck to arrive. Be mindful of local constraints like HOA permits for street parking or off-street access requirements, as these can impact the pickup process.
