Get Rewarded with a Generous Tax Deduction and Free Pickup

Watauga is a city full of heart. Here, the Texan spirit meets the daily hum of families and workers navigating busy streets near the Medical City Alliance and bustling Willowbrook Plaza. Yet, in neighborhoods like Azle Creek and along the city’s outskirts, many face uphill battles – people with criminal records striving to find fair employment, individuals with disabilities seeking accessible opportunities, and families coping with limited resources for education and job training.

Donating your old vehicle to Goodwill Car Donations delivers real hope for these folks. Your gift helps fund vital programs that provide skill-building, employment support, and education aimed at breaking down barriers and building brighter futures in this city.

And for you, the benefits are profound: a valuable tax deduction, free towing from anywhere in Watauga, and an easy, stress-free way to dispose of your vehicle.

5. What does my tax deduction look like? What paperwork will I receive?

You receive a receipt at the time of pickup. After your vehicle is sold, we send you paperwork detailing the sale price.

  • If it sells for over $500, you can deduct the full selling price.

For sales of $500 or less, you need only our written statement to claim your tax deduction. For sales between $501 and $5,000, complete Section A of IRS Form 8283. For sales over $5,000, complete Sections A and B.
