Donate Your Vehicle in Tennessee

Since 2005, Goodwill Car Donations has transformed vehicle donations into life-changing opportunities for job training and community support across Tennessee. When you donate your car, you’re giving individuals in need a chance to thrive while enjoying a tax break. Are you ready to make a real impact and offer help where it’s needed most? Call us today to help build stronger communities and make your life a little easier.

Whether you’re in Memphis, Nashville or a quiet Tennessee town, Southern living comes with its own charm. But when it’s time to part with your car, truck, SUV or ATV, Goodwill Car Donations makes it simple. Every vehicle you give helps fund local programs that strengthen your community and change lives close to home.

No matter if your vehicle is sold at auction or salvaged for parts, the proceeds go directly to Tennessee programs that provide job training and employment support. You free yourself from the hassle of maintaining and insuring an unused vehicle – all while helping neighbors in need and qualifying for a potential tax deduction.

What Are the Steps to Donating a Car in Tennessee?

Donating your old car is quick and effortless with Goodwill Car Donations. Just fill out our online form or call our 24/7 team to schedule a free pickup with one of our local towing partners. We’ll tow your vehicle at no cost to you and mail your tax receipt soon after.

After signing over your title, we’ll provide a receipt you can use to deregister your vehicle and cancel your insurance. That’s all it takes. With a few easy steps, we’ll take care of everything else.

What Kinds Of Vehicles Are Accepted?

Goodwill Car Donations accepts almost any vehicle, including cars, trucks, RVs, boats, motorcycles and even jet skis. Running or not, we’ll make the most of it. If it’s drivable, we’ll auction it. If not, we’ll recycle the parts. Every dollar goes toward local programs that uplift Tennessee communities.

What’s In It for You?

Donating your old vehicle does more than clear space in your garage or driveway because it helps people build better lives. You skip the cost of storage, repairs and insurance while earning a potential tax deduction. Most importantly, your donation funds programs that teach job skills, build confidence and create opportunities for people in your community.

When you donate a vehicle, you give people the tools to succeed. Your gift helps fund essential services that create real opportunities for growth and independence.

Donating your old vehicle to Goodwill Car Donations is one of the easiest ways to make a lasting impact. Reach out today and together we’ll turn your car into life-changing support for your community.
