Have a Toyota RAV4 you no longer need? Donating it is a simple way to help veterans, with free pickup and no selling hassle.
Selling a used Toyota RAV4 means photos, listings, calls, test drives and paperwork. Many owners don't want the hassle.
With a donation, you get a free pickup and the RAV4 helps veterans. You may also qualify for a tax deduction.
The RAV4 arrived in the United States in 1996 and helped start the small crossover SUV trend. Older RAV4s are common, which keeps their engines, wheels and body parts useful to parts buyers.
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.
