Wondering how fast you can donate your car in St. Paul? With Revive Auto, most Twin Cities donors go from first call to a cleared driveway in 24–48 hours, and in many St. Paul and Minneapolis metro neighborhoods we can schedule same-day or next-business-day pickup. You start with a 2-minute online form or quick phone call, we dispatch a tow truck at no cost to you, you sign the title at pickup, and your tax acknowledgment follows after the vehicle is sold.
We know you want that car gone quickly—whether you’re in Highland Park, Mac-Groveland, Frogtown, Payne-Phalen, the West Side, or nearby suburbs like Roseville, Maplewood, Woodbury, Eagan, or Bloomington. Once you submit your info, a local coordinator reviews your vehicle details and calls to schedule a convenient pickup window, Monday through Saturday. The tow truck meets you at home, work, or a shop anywhere in the Twin Cities. No inspections, no repairs, and non-running cars are fine. Your donation supports Heritage for the Blind’s services for people who are blind or visually impaired, and you receive a written tax acknowledgment within a few business days after sale.

Why the process is genuinely fast
Most donors are done in 24–48 hours
From your first contact to a completely cleared driveway, most St. Paul donors finish the whole process in about one to two days. We move quickly so you can reclaim your space and move on without a car sitting in the way.
Same-day or next-business-day pickup
In many Twin Cities neighborhoods, including St. Paul, Minneapolis, and nearby suburbs, we can often dispatch a tow truck for same-day or next-business-day pickup, depending on when you call and local truck availability.
2-minute start from anywhere in the Twin Cities
You can launch your donation in about two minutes online or by phone—whether you’re at home in Como or on a lunch break in downtown. Once we have your basics, our local team takes over the time-consuming parts.
Monday–Saturday dispatch for flexible timing
We coordinate pickups Monday through Saturday, giving you more chances to get on the schedule fast. That flexibility helps us find a quick slot around your work hours, kids’ activities, or weekend plans in St. Paul.
Non-running cars, no inspection or repairs needed
Your vehicle doesn’t need to start, run, or pass inspection. We accept most cars as-is—wrecked, old, or sitting for years—and tow them at no cost. Skipping repairs and inspections saves you days or weeks of delay.
