Car Donations

  • Your Goodwill Car Donation Empowers the Community
  • Keep Your Donations in Local Hands
  • Increase Opportunity in Your County
  • Give Your Vehicle Life Outside a Junkyard

How It Works

  • You donate any vehicle (running or not)
  • We auction it locally
  • 40% of the sale price funds job programs, and the rest goes to NCS (National Charity Services)


As an example, your $5,000 car = $2,000 for training!

Do you have a vehicle taking up space in your garage? Maybe you have a motorcycle you no longer ride? Your unwanted vehicles can become charitable contributions that change lives in your community. Additionally, your donation may be eligible for a tax deduction from the IRS—please ask us for details.

Our vehicle donation program makes it easier than ever to give back. The donation process is simple, and if you’re unable to drop off your vehicle, we can arrange for free pickup in most cases. Your donation helps local community members overcome barriers to employment.

Your Goodwill car donation can help fuel hours of skills training, language education, career guidance, or other support. Goodwill’s programs help individuals overcome poverty, homelessness, and other challenges.
