Snowmobile Donations: Warm the Hearts of Those in Need with This Gift

Since 2015, Goodwill Car Donations has helped communities thrive by turning unwanted vehicles into programs that change lives. Donating your snowmobile is fast and rewarding. You’ll receive tax benefits and the satisfaction of helping people in need gain access to brighter futures through education and employment.

Do you love speeding through snowy trails or pulling off tricks on rugged mountain slopes? If so, chances are you own a snowmobile.

But maybe the thrill is gone or your snowmobile simply isn’t getting used anymore. When that time comes, what should you do with it? Share with those in need and use it to support a mission.

Goodwill Car Donations offers an easy, cost-free way to part with your snowmobile and donate to a cause. When you contribute to charity through our snowmobile donation program, we’ll auction your vehicle and use the proceeds to support your local Goodwill organization.

The funds help IRS-approved 501(c)(3) nonprofits provide job training, employment services, education and other life-changing support. These programs give individuals in your community the tools they need to build financial stability and improve their quality of life.

Can I Donate a Snowmobile That Doesn’t Run?

Yes, you can absolutely donate a snowmobile even if it no longer runs. Goodwill Car Donations accepts both working and non-working snowmobiles.

What Paperwork Do I Need to Donate?

To donate your snowmobile, the most important document you’ll need is the title. This proves ownership and is required in most states. If you’ve misplaced the title, don’t worry.

We’ll provide full instructions to ensure everything is completed correctly.
