Benefits Of Donating Your Car In Cheshire, CT

Free Towing In Cheshire And All Over Connecticut

We come to you and pick up most vehicles, running or not, at absolutely no cost. You never have to leave your home to donate — we handle everything from pickup to paperwork so the process is as easy as possible for you.

A Great Tax Deduction

Your donation earns you a 100 percent tax-deductible receipt. You will receive it shortly after your vehicle is picked up, ready to use on your 1098-C form at tax time. It really does pay to donate.

A Convenient Donation Process

Our friendly, professional team guides you through every step of the donation process. We help with title questions, paperwork, license plate questions, and more — all from the comfort of your Cheshire home.

No Hassle From Selling, Storing, Or Fixing

Selling your car means posting ads, haggling over price, and scheduling test drives. Storing it means losing space for things you actually want. Fixing an aging vehicle can cost more than it is worth. Donating to Wheels For Wishes gives you free towing, a great tax deduction, and the satisfaction of knowing your vehicle went somewhere meaningful — without any of the hassle.
