When you donate, our team will arrange the pickup, usually within one business day of your call or online submission.

Vehicles For Veterans benefits over 25 American veteran charities across the United States. These trusted charities benefit veterans in a variety of ways including housing, adaptive equipment, service animals, community involvement, mental health services, transportation, and more!
Vehicles For Veterans does not donate vehicles directly to veterans. Our experienced team maximizes the value of your vehicle donation at auction or a local recycling center.
You’ll receive a tax receipt letter informing you of the actual resale amount or the declared value of your vehicle – whichever is lower. It’s also possible to write off the selling price, reasonable value, or scrap value if the vehicle is not auctioned. All this is explained by our experienced representatives.
We donate the proceeds to an amazing veterans organization, and you get a great tax deduction. Plus, we offer free towing anywhere in Ohio including:
- Columbus
- Cleveland
- Cincinnati
- Toledo
- Akron
- Dayton
- Hamilton

- And everywhere else in Ohio.
