Yes. LightSpeedBid allows sellers to leave the car keys with someone else or in a secure location to enable no contact towing. This is ideal for people with busy schedules, work commitments, mobility limitations, last minute travel, or vehicles stored at someone else’s property. Many sellers search for leave keys with neighbor, towing without being home, or sell car remote pickup, and LightSpeedBid makes off site key arrangements both easy and safe.
Here are the common ways sellers handle keys:
- Leaving keys with a trusted person
You can leave the keys with:
- A family member
- A neighbor
- A landlord or property manager
- A building superintendent
- A mechanic or storage facility worker
The tow driver picks up the keys from the designated individual upon arrival.
- Leaving keys inside the vehicle
If allowed in your state, you can leave the keys:
- In the glove compartment
- Under the floor mat
- In the center console
- In a lockbox attached to the vehicle
You simply tell LightSpeedBid or the tow company where the keys are located.
- Lockbox or code based handoff
Some sellers use a realtor style lockbox or key safe with a code. The tow driver enters the code, retrieves the key, and tows the vehicle. - Selling a car with no keys at all
LightSpeedBid buys vehicles even if the keys are:
- Lost
- Broken
- Stolen
- Locked inside
- Never provided
Tow trucks have equipment to winch and load keyless vehicles safely.
- Title handling
If your state requires signing the title in front of a driver, LightSpeedBid will coordinate the process. If not, you can leave the title with the same person who is holding the keys.
LightSpeedBid’s system is built so that you do not need to be physically present as long as the keys and title (if required) are accessible.
