Have a Honda CR-V you no longer need? Donating it is a simple way to help veterans, with free pickup and no selling hassle.
Whether your Honda CR-V is 10, 20 or 30 years old, it may still be accepted. Older vehicles often go to recyclers or parts buyers.
Donating an old CR-V frees up your driveway, ends insurance and registration costs, and helps veterans.
The CR-V launched in the U.S. in 1997, and Honda reports it has been America's best-selling crossover since then, with nearly 6 million sold here. That many on the road means steady demand for used CR-V parts.
Before you donate, read what to do about plates, registration and insurance after you donate, the 2026 car donation tax deduction guide, how to donate a car that isn't in your name and whether to donate or sell to a junkyard.
Yes. Non-running vehicles can usually be donated, and towing is free.
Pickup is typically scheduled within 24 hrs of your request.
