American Red Cross
Accepts car, truck, motorcycle, RV, and boat donations — proceeds fund disaster response, blood services, and emergency aid nationwide.
Vehicle donation is not just for late-model cars. Morrow donors regularly give junk cars, salvage-title vehicles, motorcycles, RVs, and boats; receiving charities work through condition and title questions when scheduling pickup rather than ruling vehicles out upfront.

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.
Proceeds from donated vehicles fund real programs — housing, food assistance, youth services, veterans support — operating across Morrow and Clayton County.
An unused Morrow vehicle keeps generating insurance premiums and registration fees. Donating it ends those bills the moment the title transfers.

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.
A trade-in is fast but lowballs the value. A private sale gets closer to market but takes weeks and absorbs the seller's time. A donation skips both — the vehicle is picked up free, the title transfers at pickup, and the deduction goes on the donor's return.
For a low-value, non-running, or unwanted vehicle, the donation route often nets the same or more after the dealer's trade-in haircut and the time cost of a private sale are taken into account. For a high-value working car, a sale may still come out ahead — the math is worth running with a tax advisor.
Straight answers on donating your car, the tax treatment, and what to expect.
No. The signature on the title transfer must come from the registered owner. For deceased owners, an executor with the proper estate paperwork can typically sign on behalf of the estate; the receiving charity will confirm what documentation is needed.
Pickup is often scheduled within a few days of the initial contact. The IRS Form 1098-C documenting the deduction is generally mailed within 30 days of the vehicle being sold, or within 30 days of the donation if the charity intends to use the car directly.
Typically nothing. Towing is covered by the receiving charity, title transfer is handled by the charity, and there are no fees a donor should ever pay directly to a 501(c)(3) for accepting a vehicle.
It depends on the state. Some states require the donor to remove plates before pickup and return them to the DMV; others transfer plates with the vehicle. The receiving charity and the state DMV can confirm the local rule.
The organizations shown for Morrow are recognized public charities that hold IRS 501(c)(3) status and accept vehicle donations. Easy Car Donation is an independent referral resource and is not affiliated with the charities listed; the list is provided so donors can compare options.
No. Charities that accept vehicle donations routinely take cars that do not start, have body damage, or are mechanically worn out. Condition affects the eventual sale value — and therefore the deduction — but not eligibility.
