If you’ve always wondered what you could do to help others and have an old car you were going to trade in, here’s your chance. At “Cars Helping America”, you can put your old car to good use.

Let’s face it, as a trade-in most old cars don’t bring much—especially in the current economy. However, as a vehicle for those in need your old car is priceless. Here are the 10 best reasons to donate your old car to charity:

1) Tax deductions: You can claim your donation as a charitable contribution on your taxes. Make sure you get a receipt from the organization you are donating your car to, and that they are legitimate non-profit charities such as “Cars Helping America.”

If the value of the car is worth more than $500.00, you will need to fill out special forms at tax time in order to get the true value. Your tax preparer will be able to give you the help you need in order to get the return you deserve.

2) The price of your car will not only count for you, but for the charity that receives the cash for the sale if they do not use the car themselves.

3) You avoid the hassles and expense of selling a car. In most cases you would get more from your old car if you sold it yourself rather than if you traded
it in, but it will cost you—advertising, time and aggravation. Donating your car to “Cars Helping America” saves you all that expense and frustration and gives you something in return money can never provide: the satisfaction of knowing you have helped others with your generosity.

4) You can pick the charity who will receive your donation so that those nearest and dearest to your heart reap the benefits of your automobile donation.

5) It is fast and easy. In most cases, you can have your car picked up. All you have to do is make the call or click the link to start your automobile donation.

6) At “Cars Helping America” you will be assisted by experts who have experience in vehicle donations and can answer all your questions. That’s a huge benefit when you’re donating an automobile for the first time to help ensure you don’t miss a thing in order to get the credit you deserve. It also ensures that your charity gets the car or money from the sale of the automobile.

7) Everything can be done online. Selling your car or trading it in usually means spending valuable time traveling or showing your car to strangers. When you donate your automobile all you have to do is spend a few seconds online or on the phone and you’re done.

It doesn’t matter what shape your car is in. Even old junkers that wouldn’t bring you a penny, that would, in fact, cost you money to get rid of, have value and can be donated.

9) No transfer charges. When you trade-in a car you can be responsible for paying transfer charges—not so when you donate with “Cars Helping America”. They do it all and pay the fees, too.

10) Don’t just think cars—if you have an old boat or RV, even many types of motorcycles, you can still donate them and receive all of the above benefits.

There is no end to the benefits, but surely the most important of all is the feeling you’ll get as your old car is taken away. Knowing it’s going to a good use will give you a pride and satisfaction you have never known.
