Getting started is straightforward: a few details about the Concord 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.
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 car that no longer starts is one of the worst things to try to sell — buyers steeply discount for the unknowns, and tow costs come out of the seller's pocket. The vehicle still owes registration, though, and most policies require some kind of insurance even on a parked car.
Qualified charities accept non-running vehicles directly. Towing is included at no cost, the title transfers at pickup, and the IRS Form 1098-C arrives once the charity processes the vehicle. The owner is rid of the car and the costs that came with it in a single appointment.

Form 1098-C is the IRS document a charity sends to a donor after a vehicle donation. For a deduction over $500, the donor attaches Copy B of Form 1098-C (or a Form 1098-C substitute) to the tax return. For a deduction of $500 or less, the form is not required.
