For most donated cars, the deductible amount is whatever the charity nets when it sells the vehicle, reported to the donor on IRS Form 1098-C. If the vehicle sells for $500 or less, the donor may generally deduct the lesser of $500 or fair market value without a 1098-C.
Vehicles the charity puts to direct use rather than selling have different rules and may support a fair-market-value deduction. This is general information, not tax advice — confirm the specifics with a tax advisor.

Straight answers on donating your car, the tax treatment, and what to expect.
Yes. The donor does not need to live in Ivins — or in Utah — to donate a vehicle located there. Title paperwork can typically be completed remotely; pickup is arranged at the vehicle's actual location.
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.
The featured partner is a 501(c)(3) experienced with vehicle donations. It is never required — donors can choose any charity. For donors whose primary goal is the tax write-off and a fast, low-friction pickup, routing to the featured partner is the simplest option.
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.
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.
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.
