Saved from Storage: Why I Should Donate My Car
December 4, 2014
What do I get if I donate my car? Apart from the sense of satisfaction you get from helping the members of your community, you will receive a tax break from the IRS for your car donation. This amount will be decided by a couple factors: the value of the car and the way in which the car donation charity uses it. In addition to a tax deduction, donating your car is a quick and easy way of disposing of it, without the time and effort of selling it.
How do I donate my car? Before making any final decisions about donating a car, do your research and find out what donation charity you wish to support. You should choose a reputable, tax exempt charity recognized by the IRS with a history of doing good in your community. You should also choose a charity that uses your car in a method you believe is most effective. Some charities sell donated cars to the highest bidder and use the money to help alleviate poverty, while others repair the cars and sell them at a reduced price to those in the greatest need of personal transportation.
