Donate a Car, Truck, Boat, RV, or Plane to

CARS FOR HOMES

​

Donating a car, truck, boat or plane to Habitat for Humanity’s car donation program is a great way to support our work in your local community. All net proceeds from the sale of your car donation provides strength, stability and self-reliance for families across the United States.

​

Why should I donate my vehicle?

  • 100 percent of the net proceeds from the sale of your donated vehicle will be used by your local Habitat for Humanity to build and repair affordable homes.

  • You may qualify for a tax deduction for donating a vehicle.

  • It’s fast and easy.

  • 30 percent of cars donated to Habitat are recycled for materials or sold for reusable parts.

  • Recycling steel uses less energy and natural resources and produces less carbon pollution.

  • Taking an inefficient older car off the road helps save gas and improves air quality.

How do I donate a car?

You can donate your vehicle in three easy steps with the Habitat for Humanity International car donation program:

  1. Start your donation online by navigating to our donation wizard, or call our hotline at 1-877-277-4344.

  2. Our team will ask you to provide information such as vehicle make, model, vehicle identification number and current mileage.

  3. If your vehicle is accepted, you can schedule your car to be picked up.

​

What paperwork do I need to donate my car?

Paperwork requirements vary based on the state your car is registered in, so we recommend you check with your state tax board. Here there are some common practices:

  • In most states, Certificate of Title is required in order to donate your car.

  • To complete your car donation to Habitat for Humanity International, in most states, you need to transfer your title by entering the name of the agency that processes our car donations, "Advanced Remarketing Services" in the buyer/purchaser field. Then, print and sign your name in the seller/owner field exactly as it appears at the top of the title.
