Want that car gone fast? With Island Wheels in Hawaii, most donors go from first contact to an empty driveway in just 24–48 hours. In many neighborhoods on Oʻahu, Maui, Hawaiʻi Island, and Kauaʻi, we can even arrange same-day pickup when you submit our quick 2‑minute online form or call in the morning. You choose a convenient time window, we handle the towing and title transfer details, and your donation supports Heritage for the Blind’s services for people who are blind or visually impaired.
Here’s how it works in Hawaii: you start with a short form or phone call. Our coordinator reviews your details and schedules free pickup—often same-day or the next business day in metro areas like Honolulu, Pearl City, Kāne‘ohe, Kailua, Kapolei, Wailuku, Kahului, Hilo, and Līhuʻe. The tow truck comes right to your home, condo, or work; you sign over the title at pickup or mail it shortly after. Your vehicle is sold, and within a few business days of the sale you receive a written tax acknowledgment for your records. No smog check, no repairs, and non‑running cars are welcome. If you’re ready to clear your driveway fast, you can start right now.

Why the process is genuinely fast
Same-day & next-day pickup in most metro areas

Monday–Saturday dispatch flexibility
Island Wheels schedules pickups Monday through Saturday, giving you more options around work, school, and traffic. Morning, midday, and afternoon windows help you find a time that actually works for your Hawaiʻi schedule.
Non-running and damaged cars welcome
No need to fix or move the vehicle first. Non‑running, damaged, or old cars can be towed directly from your driveway, street parking, or garage, so you can donate even if it hasn’t started in months.
No inspections, smog, or repairs required
You don’t have to pass safety checks, pay for inspections, or do any repairs before donating. Skip the hassle and expense—just tell us where the car is, and we’ll handle the rest at no cost to you.
