The Donated Vehicle

What are the benefits of donating my car to a non-profit?

Non-profits benefit by receiving a cash donation to fund new and existing programs and increase community awareness through local events. You benefit by being able to reduce your taxable income when taxes are itemized. Plus you avoid the costs associated with selling your car. No need to pay for advertising, no loss of privacy and possible security risk, and no need to pay for vehicle registration, insurance, and repairs to keep your car in running condition while you wait for a buyer.

What percentage of the proceeds from my car donation will go to the non-profit organization?

The non-profit organization receives 70% of the net proceeds.

Does my car have to be running to donate it?

In some cases we can take your car, running or not. However, it must have an engine and be towable. Contact a representative at 877-537-5277 to find out if your vehicle qualifies for pick-up.

How long will it take to pick up my vehicle?

We make donating your car as simple and convenient as possible. In many cases, vehicles can be picked up within the same week. Call our representatives at 877-537-5277, or complete our secure online donation form to set an appointment.

Do I need a smog certificate in order to donate my car?

For states that require smog certificates or safety inspections, you may donate your vehicle without these documents.

What if I receive legal notices?

In the rare event that you receive any notification of a lien sale, DMV actions, infractions, evasions or other activity related to your donated vehicle, please contact us at 877-537-5277 immediately for assistance.
