Donating a car in Dallas, Texas has never been easier


When you decide ‘I want to donate my car’imply select one of our partnering non-profits you would like to donate your vehicle to and fill out the form. Within 24 hours, a representative from CARS will contact you to help you complete the donation process.

Our Dallas partners are so appreciative of all the donations they receive and, at CARS we couldn’t be more thankful for your support! Especially because we know you could choose other options for getting rid of your unwanted vehicle- such as bringing it to a used car lot or trying to sell it on your own. Yet, we also know both of these options will only get you 30-40% of your car’s true value- which isn’t much at all. Our program, on the other hand will allow you to donate and get a vehicle tax deduction for your car’s value. This is a great tax benefit that might even allow you to write off the entire sale price of your car- instead of getting just a small percentage!

Now, you probably want to know ‘how can I make a ‘car donation near me’? If you know which nonprofit you want to give to, just let us know and we’ll ‘get the ball rolling’.

Getting the most from your generous vehicle donation


Receiving a tax deduction is definitely a bonus when you give back to your community by donating your vehicle to a local Dallas non-profit.

The IRS’ A Donor’s Guide to Vehicle Donations explains that the ‘cap’ amount you can deduct on your income tax is your car’s fair market value. In other words, the price someone would pay you for it. Of course, CARS wants every donor to receive the highest tax deduction they can for their generous donation. So, we take all of our vehicle donations to one of our sale locations around the county. It is at these locations we evaluate each vehicle and make minor, even major, mechanical repairs when cost effective. For donors, this means we make every effort to ensure the maximum amount is received for each donation; resulting in a higher tax deduction for you! Have additional questions about your car donation?
