Car donations to Habitat for Humanity support the local and global mission of eliminating poverty housing and homelessness and save you the time and energy of finding a buyer. By donating a car to Habitat’s vehicle donation program, Cars for Homes™, you can help volunteers with Habitat for Humanity build houses in partnership with families in need of a hand up, not a hand out in your community.
Donate a car or other vehicle to Habitat for Humanity of Montgomery and Delaware Counties and help provide homes, repairs, and life skills to local families.
Donating your vehicle to Habitat for Humanity is a great way to support our work.
Proceeds from the sale of your donated vehicle will help Habitat families build strength, stability, and self-reliance in Montgomery & Delaware counties. Plus, it’s fast and easy to do, and you may qualify for a tax deduction.
Habitat for Humanity of Montgomery and Delaware Counties is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Contributions, including vehicle donations, may be claimed as deductions on your federal tax return, if you itemize.
About half of our cars are sold to licensed dealers at wholesale auctions and are reused for transportation. The other half are typically transported to auto salvage yards where all reusable car parts, batteries, tires, and fluids are removed. Vehicles that can be recycled are crushed, shredded, and recycled into steel.
Recycling cars keeps a huge amount of steel out of landfills – enough to build nearly 45,000 steel-framed homes every year. The energy saved each year is enough to power approximately 18 million homes!
Habitat receives funds for each donated vehicle, and every donation makes a difference and the families that partner with us are extremely grateful for your help.
Within 30 days of the sale of your vehicle, Habitat will send you a written acknowledgment/receipt. This receipt will include:
Your vehicle will be sold on behalf of Habitat through a national network of auctions and direct buyers. All the auctions and direct buyers used by Habitat are licensed, insured, and bonded in the states where they operate.
By signing the title directly to our partner, Advanced Remarketing Services, you are legally transferring ownership of your vehicle to Habitat for Humanity. When your title is received and your vehicle is picked up, you are no longer responsible for the vehicle.
We accept almost all vehicles, including cars, trucks, motorcycles, recreational vehicles, boats, snowmobiles, farm equipment, and construction equipment. If you want to donate your car or truck, please go to our donation wizard. If you want to donate any other type of vehicle, please call us at 1-877-277-4344.
