If you've been thinking about what to do with a car you no longer drive, donating it to support veterans is a great choice. Here are the top reasons it makes sense.
No listings, no strangers test-driving, no haggling. One short form or phone call starts the process.
Towing is arranged at no cost to you, and pickup can often happen within 24 hours depending on location.
Vehicles don't have to run to be considered. Acceptance depends on condition and location.
A tax deduction may be available depending on IRS rules, the recipient's eligibility and your situation. See the IRS donor's guide to vehicle donation and consult a tax professional.
After operating costs, a portion of net proceeds benefits veteran programs — a meaningful way to show gratitude.
Disclosure: After operating costs such as towing, processing, title transfer and administration, a portion of net vehicle proceeds benefits veteran programs. Vehicle acceptance depends on condition and location. This guide is general information, not legal or tax advice.
