Frequently Asked Questions Vehicle DonationWhat can I donate? We accept most vehicles and vessels including, but not limited to cars, trucks, motorcycles, RV’s, or boats on trailers. My car hasn’t run in years. Can I still donate it? Yes, we are able to accept most vehicles running or not (exceptions include older vehicles whose value would not offset the cost of towing). To find out if we can accept your vehicle, please complete and submit our online vehicle donation form. What do I need to donate my vehicle? We would like the title to the vehicle, but if you do not have it, please call us anyway. It is possible that other arrangements can be made. Please call us toll-free at 1-800-237-5714 seven days a week. How will my car be picked-up? We will arrange to have your vehicle towed away by a professionally licensed, bonded and insured towing company. Pick-up can be arranged in the continental U.S. and Hawaii. How long will it take to pick-up my car? We will arrange for a towing company to contact you via telephone within four business days. If you need your car picked up sooner, please let us know as we may be able to accommodate a rush order. Is my donation tax deductible? Yes, vehicle and vessel donations made to bona fide charitable organizations are tax deductible to the full extent of the law. However, individual tax situations vary so please check with your tax adviser to determine what, if any, tax benefit you may receive from a tax deductible donation. How does my tax deduction work? The IRS allows you, the taxpayer, to claim a tax deduction of (a) the value of your vehicle up to $500 or (b) if we sell the vehicle for more than $500 we will mail you a notice indicating the value for your tax purposes. For further information please check IRS Publication 4303 — A Donor’s Guide to Car Donations. How can I contact you to schedule a pick-up?
