Your Car Can Help Today
Living in Sebastian, Florida, you get used to neighbors looking out for each other, whether it’s lending a hand after a storm or supporting small local businesses along the river. It’s the kind of place where even small actions feel meaningful because they ripple through the community. Here, even a car that’s been sitting unused can still serve a real purpose.
Donating your vehicle through Goodwill Car Donations is a simple way to turn that unused car into something that helps people move forward. Your donation supports individuals who may be facing real barriers – like limited education, lack of job skills, disabilities, or even the challenge of rebuilding life after incarceration. We’re able to accept a wide range of vehicles in different conditions, and if you’re unsure about yours, our team will walk you through the details and let you know what’s possible.
For you, the process stays easy and stress-free from start to finish. You may qualify for a tax deduction, and we provide free towing for eligible vehicles, so there’s nothing extra to figure out. We’ll take care of the pickup and paperwork – often within 24–48 hours – while keeping you informed every step of the way.
How the Process Comes Together
We keep things simple so you can focus on the impact, not the logistics.
- Reach out – Call our toll-free line or fill out the online form. We’ll ask a few quick questions about your vehicle and walk you through what to expect, including eligibility details and next steps. Most vehicles qualify, and if there are any specifics we need to check, we’ll go over them with you in a simple, no-pressure way.

That’s it – three clear steps, with support at every point. If anything comes up along the way, you’ll have a real person to guide you through it – no guesswork, no stress.

FAQs About Car Donation in Sebastian, FL

You don’t need to drop it off anywhere. We work with local towing partners who pick up your vehicle right from your home in Sebastian Highlands, Roseland, or wherever you’re located.
2. Do I need my title to donate?
Yes, Florida law requires a title transfer. Normally, residents would go to the Indian River County Tax Collector – Sebastian Office, 1921 US Highway 1, Sebastian, FL 32958. But with us, the paperwork is handled in-house, so you don’t need to make that trip.
3. What kinds of vehicles can I donate?

5. Can I claim a tax deduction?
Yes, you’ll receive an IRS-compliant receipt. Many Sebastian donors appreciate that their generosity also comes with a financial benefit.
6. What if I have title issues?
No worries. While the Sebastian DMV (Indian River County Tax Collector’s Office) is the official place for title transfers, our in-house title department usually resolves issues directly. That means you don’t have to stand in line – we’ve got you covered.
