Goodwill Car Donation accepts vehicles in any condition — proceeds fund job training and employment placement programs in your community.
Cars, trucks, SUVs, motorcycles, RVs, and boats — if a Highland Village household is ready to part with a vehicle, donating it is often the simplest and most paperwork-light way to move on. Free towing is standard; an IRS Form 1098-C follows after the sale or use.

Their team verifies clear title, runs the vehicle history, and prepares all necessary transfer paperwork.

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 Highland Village.
Non-running vehicles, salvage-title cars, and vehicles with cosmetic damage routinely qualify. Title questions and mechanical condition are worked through when the tow is scheduled rather than used as a reason to turn the vehicle away upfront.
Straight answers on donating your car, the tax treatment, and what to expect.
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.
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.

Begin with the form on this page: provide a few basic details about the Highland Village vehicle and request a free pickup. From there the donor is connected with a qualified 501(c)(3) that schedules the tow, accepts the signed title, and mails the IRS Form 1098-C.
Salvage-title and non-operational vehicles are often accepted. The receiving charity will confirm based on the title status and the vehicle's location; non-running vehicles are typically picked up by flatbed at no cost to the donor.
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.
