You Earn A Great Tax Deduction When You Donate Your Car To Our Vehicle Donation Programs

Besides knowing your donation from your Minnesota home is making a difference, the best benefit of donating to one of our car donation programs is a great tax deduction! After your vehicle donation is complete, we mail you a tax-deductible receipt.
You can use this tax receipt to claim a great tax write-off. Your deduction will reflect the sale value that our experienced team maximizes at auction.
If your vehicle sells for less than $500, you can deduct the fair market value up to $500. On top of all that, we help with the paperwork and take the vehicle off your hands with hassle-free towing!
Most pickups happen within a few business days, and we’ll help with all the paperwork and title transfer to make the process easy.
