- Our charity sells your vehicle, donating crucial funding to Make-A-Wish.
- Our experienced team maximizes the value of your vehicle by auctioning or recycling it.
- We get an independent appraisal, and the great sales price is what you see on your donation receipt. Whatever your vehicle sells for, you see reflected on your donation receipt.
- If your vehicle sells for under $500, you can claim the fair market value up to $500.
- If you car sold for more, your written receipt will reflect the gross revenue.
Donating your car should be beneficial for your financial situation. Donating most vehicles is a generous sacrifice for your local community.
