Every charity listed for New London is a pre-screened, IRS-qualified public charity that accepts vehicle donations.
Charities that accept vehicles routinely take cars that do not start, salvage-title vehicles, and aging junk cars. Condition affects value, not eligibility.
The receiving charity mails a Form 1098-C documenting the gift. It is the single piece of paperwork the IRS expects for a car donation deduction over $500.
Vehicle donations routed to MatchingDonors.com receive prioritized handling — free towing, title transfer, and IRS Form 1098-C after the vehicle sells. Proceeds fund the matching platform that has connected over 15,000 registered donors with patients in need.

An inherited car often arrives with paperwork the heir did not expect — registration to update, insurance to keep current, and a title that may take time to clear through probate. Selling it can mean those costs continue for weeks.
Donating an inherited New London vehicle, once the title is clear, converts it into a charitable deduction and ends the upkeep in a single appointment — often the simplest resolution for a vehicle the heir does not plan to drive.
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.
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 New London.
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.
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.
Yes. Personal items, registration documents not needed for transfer, garage door openers, toll transponders, and aftermarket equipment the donor wants to keep should all be removed before the tow truck arrives.
The donor signs the vehicle title over to the charity at the time of pickup; the receiving charity files the transfer with the state and mails the IRS Form 1098-C afterwards. Specific signature requirements vary by state DMV.
A duplicate title can be ordered from the state DMV; the receiving charity can usually wait while the replacement arrives. Donating a vehicle without any title is rarely possible.
State tax treatment of charitable gifts varies. Some states offer their own deduction or credit on top of the federal deduction; others do not. Because the rules differ, confirm the Wisconsin specifics with a local tax advisor.
Typically nothing. Towing is covered by the receiving charity, title transfer is handled by the charity, and there are no fees a donor should ever pay directly to a 501(c)(3) for accepting a vehicle.
