What Kinds of St. Bernard Parish Vehicles Can Be Donated
Vehicle donation is not limited to running passenger cars. Pickup trucks, SUVs, minivans, motorcycles, RVs, boats on trailers, and even snowmobiles and ATVs are accepted by 501(c)(3) charities serving St. Bernard Parish.

Frequently Asked Questions for St. Bernard Parish Car Donors
Straight answers on donating your car, the tax treatment, and what to expect.
How soon can a St. Bernard Parish car be picked up? expand_more
Pickup is typically scheduled within a few business days of the initial contact, often within a week. The donor sets the window; the tow company arrives during that window.
How are the charities listed for St. Bernard Parish chosen? expand_more
The organizations shown for St. Bernard Parish 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.
Can a car with a lien be donated in St. Bernard Parish? expand_more
Generally only after the lien is paid off and the lender has released the title. Donating a vehicle with an active lien creates legal complications because the lender, not the registered owner, technically controls the title.
Can a business, LLC, or trust donate a vehicle in St. Bernard Parish? expand_more
Yes. Vehicles held by a company, partnership, or trust can be donated, though the deduction rules differ from those for individuals. An entity considering a gift should review the specifics with its tax advisor.
When can insurance be canceled on a donated St. Bernard Parish car? expand_more
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.
