There are many reasons to donate a car. First, selling an unwanted vehicle is a hassle if the transaction is not part of a trade-in deal for a new one; no one wants to schedule their life around waiting for prospective buyers to show up for a test drive, or stand in line at the motor-vehicle department to deal with title-transfer paperwork. Second, when you donate your car, proceeds of the sale can benefit the charity of your choice if you use the right donation service. DonateCarUSA.com is one such service. We will pick up any car, running or not, for free. Here’s how our automobile donation service works: Go to DonateCarUSA.com and click on “List of Charities” to choose which one will receive proceeds from the sale when you donate your car. You can browse by state or type of charitable organization (animals, arts, children, education, environment, faith based, family services, health, human rights, human services, seniors and other). We represent more than 400 charities and, to date, have given them more than $60 million through automobile donation. We pass on 50 percent of the net proceeds to the charity, with the other 50 percent covering costs relating to the donation. Once you have chosen a charity, you can fill out the “Donate a Car” form found throughout our website or call us at (800) 269-6814 seven days a week. We can also answer any questions you might have. Once we have complete details regarding your automobile donation, we forward them to a towing company in your area, which will call you within 24 hours to schedule pickup. Upon pickup, the tow-truck driver will give you a tax receipt. This receipt will suffice unless the car you donate sells for more than $500 at auction. If it does, we will provide an additional receipt that allows you to write off up to the total sale as a deduction. This tax deduction serves as yet a third reason to donate a car instead of trying to sell it. As mentioned above, we also handle all paperwork with the applicable department of motor vehicles. Note: if the registration on the donated car has already expired, or if it will expire before the vehicle donation is picked up, you are responsible for fees. If the registration expires after we pick up it up, it is our responsibility. In addition to accepting cars for automobile donation, we also pick up trucks, vans, airplanes, motorcycles, recreational vehicles, boats and trailers. The process for donating these vehicles is the same as for when you donate your car.
