Goodwill Car Donation accepts vehicles in any condition — proceeds fund job training and employment placement programs in your community.
When a Cabot vehicle no longer fits the household, trade-in and private sale are not the only exits. A donation to a qualified 501(c)(3) includes free towing, asks for nothing out of pocket, and routes the value to a cause serving Lonoke County.

The receiving charity mails a Form 1098-C documenting the gift. It is the single piece of paperwork the IRS expects for a car donation deduction over $500.

A transparent, four-step process ensures a smooth transition from vehicle to impact. (The exact process may differ between organizations, these are the general phases)
Your charity will conduct a preliminary assessment of your vehicle's market value and suitability for donation.
Their team verifies clear title, runs the vehicle history, and prepares all necessary transfer paperwork.
The title is officially transferred to the charity. You receive IRS Form 1098-C for tax deduction purposes.
The vehicle is sold or put to use by the charity, and proceeds fund their mission.
Getting started is straightforward: a few details about the Cabot vehicle and a request for a free, no-obligation pickup. There is no commitment at this stage and no cost to the donor.
From there, the request is passed to a qualified 501(c)(3) equipped to accept vehicle donations. That charity schedules the tow, accepts the signed title at pickup, and mails the IRS Form 1098-C. Easy Car Donation is an independent referral resource — the donation itself is completed between the donor and the receiving charity.
Straight answers on donating your car, the tax treatment, and what to expect.
Yes. The donor does not need to live in Cabot — or in Arkansas — to donate a vehicle located there. Title paperwork can typically be completed remotely; pickup is arranged at the vehicle's actual location.
The deduction generally applies to the tax year in which the title transfer is completed. Donors aiming to claim it in a particular year often start early enough to leave room for pickup and paperwork before December 31.
Yes. There is no limit on the number of vehicles a donor can give. Each donation is documented separately, with its own title transfer and its own Form 1098-C if applicable.
A charitable deduction only lowers taxes for filers who itemize. A donor taking the standard deduction still ends the vehicle's carrying costs and supports the chosen cause, but the deduction itself would not apply to that return.
The featured partner is a 501(c)(3) experienced with vehicle donations. It is never required — donors can choose any charity. For donors whose primary goal is the tax write-off and a fast, low-friction pickup, routing to the featured partner is the simplest option.
Insurance should generally be kept active until the title transfer is complete and the vehicle has been picked up. Confirming the transfer with the state DMV before canceling protects the donor from liability on the vehicle after it leaves.
