Donations of cars, vans, trucks, boats, trailers and aircraft help support charitable nonprofit organizations that fund research, outreach programs, disaster relief and other humanitarian activities. Apart from providing food vouchers for needy people, your car donation may qualify as a tax deduction.
Call the charity you want to donate your car. Most charities such as the American Red Cross and the American Diabetes Association, have websites that provide all the necessary information to start the donation process. They provide a phone number of a car donation center that sells your car and give you the amount to charity. The organization also provides information on the tax benefits of your donation.
Get your car picked up by calling the phone number given to you by the charity. The car donation center requires information on your vehicle, such as year, make, model, vehicle identification number (VIN), mileage, color and condition. A licensed, bonded and insured towing the car will be.
Give the driver of the crane keys and your car title. The laws in your state determine whether the name of charity or dealer's name is entered in the title section of the purchaser, or let go blank. Ask the charity donation service or tow truck driver on the correct way to complete the title details. You can get your tax deductible receipt your car donation crane driver or in the mail.
