What happens if you delay
⚠ Accumulating Parking Tickets
Every day your vehicle remains on the street, new parking tickets could be issued. These fines can escalate quickly, making your donation less beneficial financially.
⚠ Impoundment Fees
If your vehicle is towed to an impound, you'll start accruing daily storage fees ranging from $40 to $100. These fees can add up rapidly, impacting your finances.
⚠ Complicated Donation Process
If your vehicle gets towed, the donation process becomes more complicated, requiring you to navigate municipal auctions and other legalities, making the process tedious.
⚠ Potential Abandonment Fine
In some Connecticut cities, leaving your vehicle unattended can lead to fines up to $1,000. Acting quickly can prevent such hefty penalties.
