Why Donate Your Vehicle Series: Saves Time

Donating: The Fastest Way to Dispose of Your Unwanted Car

Have you ever found yourself staring at your old worn-out car and thought, “What am I supposed to do with this four-wheeled fossil?”

When it comes to saying goodbye to an outmoded vehicle, the typical options that come to mind are selling, trading, or junking. However, we’re here to throw a fourth option into the mix, and it’s something that will make the process of parting with an automobile much faster and easier: Donate it to charity.

 

4 Ways Car Donation Can Save Time

Here’s how you’ll be able to save more time when you hand over your vehicle to a charity:

  1. No need to advertise, arrange test drives, or negotiate.

Selling your car can be as bumpy as a ride on a gravel road. You have to advertise on multiple media outlets, which means taking photos of your car and coming up with enticing descriptions. You also have to deal with endless negotiations with would-be buyers who are always looking for a bargain as well as strangers wanting to test drive your car.

You can skip these headache-inducing steps when you simply donate the vehicle to charity. Just pick up the phone, call a trusted nonprofit, and the staff there will guide you on their donation process.

  1. Skip the repair shop.

Trading in your car could be a decent option, but dealerships often want cars in good condition. This might require you to sink more money into repairs, not to mention the time spent waiting for those repairs to be completed. A charity, on the other hand, will typically accept your vehicle as it is — no repairs needed, and no hassle!

  1. No paperwork.

Whether you’re selling, trading in, or junking your vehicle, expect to spend some time dealing with paperwork. There’s the title transfer, the sales contract (if you’re selling), the junking certificate (if you’re junking), and other necessary documents. Fortunately, donating your car to a charity involves the least amount of paperwork, as your chosen nonprofit will assign a team to handle most of the documentation for you.

  1. Instant pickup, no waiting around.

With selling or trading, there can be a lot of waiting around for the right buyer or the right deal. On the other hand, many charities offer quick and free pickup services, whisking your old car away without you having to lift a finger and spending a dime.
