Fast, Simple Process with Exclusive Donor Advantages

Waycross is where deep Southern roots intersect with Georgia’s vibrant culture and community. Notably, the city thrives with the rhythms of daily life, especially around the Okefenokee Swamp and downtown districts. However, in neighborhoods like Pine Lakes and the surrounding areas of Ware County, residents face challenges such as limited job opportunities, disabilities, inadequate education, and issues related to the justice system.

You can help address these challenges by donating any vehicle you can spare to Goodwill Car Donations. Your contribution will support Goodwill programs in Waycross that provide job training, educational assistance, and other essential services designed to help individuals overcome hardship and achieve self-sufficiency.

Your generosity also comes with benefits: a valuable tax deduction, free pick-up and towing anywhere in Waycross, and hassle-free vehicle disposal.

In Waycross, your car donation drives change, propelling the community forward.

We’re able to accept a wide range of vehicles, including cars, trucks, SUVs, and motorcycles. Some other vehicles – like campers, trailers, or boats – may also qualify. They don’t always have to be running, but acceptance depends on things like condition, title status, and overall eligibility.

For sales under $500, you only need our statement. For sales between $501 and $5,000, complete Section A on IRS Form 8283. For sales over $5,000, you’ll need to complete Sections A and B.
