Donate a Car to Help Chipley Folks Overcome Barriers

Free Pickup, Tax Savings & a Chance to Give Back

Chipley is a town of southern charm and strong community ties, but not everyone gets the same shot at success. A neighbor near Orange Hill living with a disability, a teen in Sunny Hills who never finished school, or a single parent near downtown trying to make ends meet – each faces barriers that make employment hard to reach.

Your old car can help them overcome challenges. By donating it to Goodwill Car Donations, you support programs that provide training, education, and career services to help individuals achieve their goals. Your gift allows neighbors in Chipley to take the next step toward stability and self-sufficiency.

It’s a meaningful way to give back – and gain something valuable in return. You’ll get a generous tax deduction, enjoy free towing, and skip the stress of dealing with your old vehicle. In Chipley, your gift helps others move forward – and clears the way for you, too.

Areas We Serve Throughout Chipley, FL

Your donated vehicle fuels life-changing support for neighbors across Chipley and Washington County. We arrange free, convenient pickups wherever you live, work, or park.

• Downtown Chipley Historic District – Brick storefronts along Jackson Avenue, the Historic Train Depot, and the courthouse square set a small-town rhythm punctuated by passing freight cars. We handle alley or curbside pickups here – often collecting older sedans, commuter compacts, and small business vans ready for a new purpose.
• Shivers Park and Nearby Blocks – Shaded streets, mid-century ranch homes, and Saturday playdates under the big oaks give this area its family-friendly feel. We coordinate driveway tows on your schedule and commonly pick up minivans, SUVs, and second cars that no longer fit the household.
• I‑10/FL‑77 Interchange & Main Street Corridor – Big parking lots by hotels and the Walmart Supercenter make meetups easy, with quick access to Exit 120. We can meet you at your workplace or a designated lot. We frequently tow high-mileage commuters, retired work trucks, and fleet vehicles.
• Orange Hill Area – Rolling pastures, farm stands, and those sweeping views along Orange Hill Road define this scenic stretch north of town. We plan farm‑friendly pickups at gates or barns and often accept well-used pickups and SUVs that have served the land for years.
• Sunny Hills – Long boulevards, scattered new builds, and weekends at Boat Lake or Gap Lake are part of life south on FL‑77. We schedule HOA‑friendly pickups and commonly receive crossovers, older sedans, and the occasional small fishing boat with trailer (in eligible cases).
• Wherever you are in Chipley – or anywhere in Florida – Goodwill Car Donations is ready to pick up your vehicle and put it to work for your community.

FAQ | Chipley Car Donations

1. What happens on pickup day in Chipley?

After you schedule, we arrange free towing within 24–48 hours (same-day service may be possible, depending on our tow partner’s availability). We meet you at home, your job, or a convenient spot – whether that’s near Shivers Park, along Jackson Avenue, or by the I‑10/FL‑77 corridor. You’ll receive a donation receipt at pickup or shortly after.

2. How long does the donation process take?

We typically complete a Chipley car donation within one to six weeks, finalizing the sale and final paperwork a few weeks after pickup. We’ll keep you updated at every step. Rest assured, our local partners handle the heavy lifting quickly and professionally.

3. What vehicles can I donate, and do they need to run?

We accept a range of vehicles: cars, trucks, SUVs, and some motorcycles, ATVs, RVs, campers, trailers, or boats. Eligibility depends on the vehicle’s condition, title, and local logistics, and not all vehicles can be accepted. Vehicles do not need to run.

4. How does my donation help people in and around Chipley?

Proceeds stay local through the Goodwill chapter serving Washington County, funding services that help disadvantaged residents:

• Job skills training and placement
• Disability and employment support
• Youth education support and scholarships
• Financial literacy classes
• Career coaching and counseling

5. What’s my tax deduction, and what paperwork will I need?

• If your vehicle sells for $500 or less, you can claim a tax deduction of either the vehicle’s fair market value (FMV) or $500 – whichever is less. For example, if your car is valued at $650 but sells for only $350, you can deduct $500.
• When the sale price exceeds $500, your deduction is the gross sale proceeds.
• If the deduction is $500 or less, you only need a simple written statement from the charity, which should include the charity’s name, date of donation, and a description of the donated vehicle.

We’ll send you the necessary documentation.

6. What if there’s a problem with my title?

No stress – our in-house title team can resolve most issues, including lost titles or multiple owners, without you having to visit the Washington County Tax Collector – Chipley Office (1331 South Blvd, Chipley, FL 32428). We’ll explain what’s needed and handle the paperwork to keep things manageable.
