YMCA
Local YMCAs accept donated cars, trucks, and boats — proceeds fund youth programs, fitness scholarships, and community services in your neighborhood.
Donating a vehicle sounds complicated. In practice, a Mocksville donation is a short form, a scheduled free tow, a signed title, and an IRS Form 1098-C in the mail. The donor's only obligations are providing the title and a window of time for pickup.

Cars are only the most common donation. A small business retiring a Mocksville delivery truck, a household done with an RV that no longer leaves the driveway, or an owner ready to part with a project motorcycle can donate those vehicles on the same basic terms.
Larger vehicles take a bit more coordination on the tow — a flatbed for a non-running RV, a trailer rendezvous for a boat — but the financial picture is the same: free pickup, a signed title, and IRS documentation for the deduction.
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.
Straight answers on donating your car, the tax treatment, and what to expect.
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.
For a low-value, non-running, or unwanted vehicle, the time and cost of a private sale often eat into the proceeds. A donation skips the sale entirely, includes free towing, and produces a documented deduction — usually the simpler route for vehicles the donor would rather not market.
If the charity sells the vehicle, the deduction is generally the gross sale price reported on Form 1098-C. If the sale is $500 or less, the donor may deduct the lesser of $500 or fair market value (Kelley Blue Book private-party value is a common reference). If the charity uses the car directly or makes material improvements before selling, fair market value rules apply.
Usually not, as long as the vehicle is accessible, the signed title is left in an agreed-upon location, and personal items have been removed. Specifics are confirmed by the receiving charity when pickup is scheduled.
Most charities sell donated vehicles — at auction, through a partner dealer, or directly — and direct the proceeds to their programs. Some charities use a donated car directly for fleet or client transportation. The receiving charity can confirm its intended use before pickup.
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.
