DONATE YOUR CAR
There are just 3 simple steps!
1. Contact Us
2. Schedule Pickup
3. Tax Deduction
Your vehicle can do much more than sit unused in your driveway. When you donate your car, you help provide support for people in your community who are facing poverty and life-limiting disabilities. Your donation helps fund programs that give individuals the guidance they need to move toward a more stable and independent future.
The process is quick and convenient for you from beginning to end. You do not need to worry about selling the vehicle yourself. Our team handles those details so you can focus on making a meaningful impact in your community. Whether your car is running or not, there is a good chance it can still support programs that help people build better lives.
Donating your automobile can also benefit you personally. You may qualify for a tax deduction and you can stop spending money on repairs, insurance, registration and maintenance for a vehicle you no longer need. Your donation creates opportunities for others while helping you simplify your own life. It is an easy way to support local career programs and make a lasting difference for people who need a helping hand.
How Does the Donation Process Work?
Getting started is simple. You can call us at (866) 233-8586 or fill out our online donation form with a few basic details about your vehicle. We will ask for information such as the make, model, year and condition of the car, along with your preferred pickup location and contact information.
Once your information is verified, we schedule a free pickup at a time and location that works best for you. We can often pick up vehicles from your home or even a repair shop. Most pickups happen within a short timeframe, making the process smooth and stress-free for you.
After pickup, we handle the rest. Our team manages the sale of your vehicle along with the paperwork connected to your donation. Once the vehicle is sold, we send you a tax-deductible receipt for your records. The entire process is designed to be simple and convenient from start to finish.
Why Does My Vehicle Donation Matter?
Your donation helps support important community programs that provide real opportunities for people in need. The proceeds from your vehicle’s sale help fund services focused on job training, career development, mentoring and other programs that help individuals move toward financial independence and stability.
Donating your vehicle also saves you valuable time and money. Instead of continuing to pay for repairs, insurance, maintenance, storage and registration, you can clear space and remove a financial burden from your life. You also avoid the hassle and uncertainty that often come with trying to sell a used vehicle on your own.
In addition to helping others, your donation may qualify you for a tax deduction. Depending on the vehicle’s sale price or fair market value, you could receive valuable tax benefits when you file your federal income tax return. Your donation supports your community while also providing benefits for you.
What Vehicles Can I Donate?
We accept a wide variety of vehicles, although some limitations apply. Common vehicle donations include sedans, coupes, convertibles, hatchbacks, hybrids, SUVs, crossovers, minivans and luxury vehicles. Many commuter-style vehicles can qualify for donation if proper ownership documentation is available.
Your vehicle does not need to be in perfect condition to help support our mission. We often accept vehicles that no longer run or have failed emissions testing. Even older vehicles may still provide value through auction sales that help fund community programs.
In addition to cars, you may also be able to donate motorcycles, boats, RVs, buses, golf carts, trucks and certain specialty vehicles. If you are unsure whether your vehicle qualifies, contact our team directly. We will gladly answer your questions and help you determine whether your vehicle can support our donation program.
Frequently Asked Questions
No. You do not need to be present during the pickup process. If you cannot be there, our team can provide simple instructions for a contact-free pickup so everything still goes smoothly.
Most vehicles are picked up within one to two business days after scheduling. In some cases, faster arrangements may also be available depending on your location and schedule.
Proof of ownership is required, and we cannot accept abandoned vehicles. However, if you have lost your title, our team can often help you request a duplicate title so you can continue with the donation process.
Inherited vehicles and vehicles with multiple owners can often still qualify for donation. Requirements vary by state, so we encourage you to contact us directly for guidance based on your specific situation.
What Should You Do Before We Pick Up Your Vehicle?
Before pickup, make sure your title is signed correctly. If you are unsure where to sign or what paperwork is required, contact our Title Department before completing anything. This helps prevent delays or mistakes during the transfer process.
You should also remove all personal belongings from the vehicle before pickup. In many states, you will also need to remove your license plates so they can be returned to the DMV. Taking care of these details ahead of time helps make the process faster and easier for you.
At pickup, the tow truck driver will provide a towing receipt confirming your donation. You can use this document to cancel your vehicle registration and insurance coverage. Keep the receipt in a safe place for your records.
Are You Ready to Make a Difference?
Your unused vehicle can become a valuable source of support for people who are working to overcome financial hardship. By donating your car, you help fund programs that provide career guidance and opportunities for individuals who need support building a better future.
From your first phone call to receiving your final tax receipt, the entire donation process is designed to be stress-free for you. We handle the towing and vehicle sale so you can focus on making a positive impact in your community.
