Are you one of the many consumers across the united states that has an unsightly junk car clogging their driveways? Do you have a running car that you would like to get rid of? Want to know how to donate a car? Well, here are the steps that you should follow if you are considering donating a car.

Step 1: Choose the charity that you would like the proceeds from your car to go to: Although a great deal of people know who they want to give their car to when they donate it, many consumers find themselves lost trying to figure out which charity is the best charity to donate a car to. Here at Cars Helping Charities, we have made this easy for you. On our home page, you will find 8 icons representing 8 different causes. These are the most common causes helped by charities. Simply choose a cause and click on it. Once you click on your cause, you will be taken to information spotlighting what we believe to be the best charity to donate a car to in that sector. However, if you would like to donate your car to a charity that is not listed on the Cars Helping Charities website, simply type in the name of that charity in the easy donations form to the right when prompted.

Step 2: Fill out the simple car donations form to the right: On every page in the Cars Helping Charities website, you will find the form that you see to your right. This form was designed to make the process of donating a car as simple as possible. Filling out the form is as simple as following the steps from top to bottom. Once you have filled out all of your vehicle information, simply click donate to be taken to the personal information section of the form.

Step 3: Wait for the call: Once the easy donations form to the right has been completed, it’s time to sit back and wait for the call. A representative from Cars Helping Charities will be calling in no time. This call is for 2 reasons. For one, we want to make sure that you had a great experience on our website and if there are any questions that we can answer for you. Also, during this call, a Cars Helping Charities representative will verify the vehicle information and schedule a pick up date.

Step 4: Title placement: Finally, during your call with one of our Cars Helping Charities representatives, you will be given instructions as to how to sign and where to place the title for your car donation. Simply follow these instructions and your donation is complete.

Once these 4 steps are completed, you can expect for your car to be picked up and brought to one of our car donation facilities fairly quickly. Also, once the car is sold, you will receive your tax deduction receipt. If your car donation generates proceeds under $500, you will receive a $500 tax deduction. However, if your car donation generates proceeds in excess of $500, you will receive a tax deduction equal to the amount of proceeds generated from your donation.
