About Goodwill Car Donations
Written by the company
Turn Your Old Vehicle Into a Life-Changing Opportunity
Goodwill Car Donations makes it easy to donate your car, truck, boat, motorcycle, RV, or almost any other vehicle and turn something you no longer need into real opportunity for people in your community. Proceeds from every donation go directly toward funding job training, career counseling, and employment services provided by local Goodwill organizations across the country.
For over 100 years, Goodwill has been one of America's most trusted nonprofits, helping individuals overcome barriers, gain new skills, and find meaningful work. When you donate your vehicle, you become part of that mission. You help someone take a step toward independence, stability, and a brighter future.
Most Vehicles in Most Conditions
Whether your vehicle is running or not, chances are we can take it. We accept cars, trucks, SUVs, vans, motorcycles, scooters, boats, jet skis, RVs, campers, trailers, golf carts, ATVs, and more. If you're not sure whether your vehicle qualifies, just give us a call and we'll be happy to help.
The Process Is Simple and Free
Donating your vehicle takes just three steps. You contact us online or by phone, we schedule a fast, free pickup at a time and place that works for you, and we handle all the paperwork from there. After your vehicle is sold, you receive an IRS tax-deductible receipt. There is no cost to you and no DMV hassles.
Proudly Serving All 50 States
We partner with certified IRS 501(c)(3) Goodwill member organizations nationwide, so your donation benefits your own local community. Whether you're in a major city or a rural area, we're here to make giving back as easy and rewarding as possible.
Your unused vehicle has more value than you think. The proceeds from its sale go toward building stronger communities, one donation at a time.

Hi Prabir! Thank you so much for your Toyota Camry donation and for leaving such a kind review. We're glad to hear you had an excellent experience. Thanks again, and we hope you have a lovely day!
Easy and friendly
The person on the phone was helpful and patient.
The whole process was easy to follow.
The tow company call me on time to schedule the pickup day and time (convenient to me).
The tow truck person called me in advance to let me know when he was going to pickup my car, and he was here on time.
This person also helped me to retrieve my license plates from my car (the screws were very tight) and he spoke in my language which made the process evn easier and friendly.

Good experience but towing communication needs to be improved
The app and customer experience and customer service were all very good. The only thing keeping it from being 5 Stars was the towing company. I was promised to hear from the towing company in one business day, but that didn’t happen. I called Goodwill several times over several days and they couldn’t reach the towing company. It took nearly a week to get my car towed. The towing company guys were nice, but they were from out-of-state and told me they tow cars in my area on Wednesdays. I wish I had l own that upfront.

Hi Ron,
Thank you for donating your Toyota Sienna to Goodwill Car Donations, and for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We're glad to hear our customer experience and team were a good fit for you, but you're right to call out the towing delay, and we're sorry for the frustration it caused.
A week's wait and having to follow up multiple times isn't the experience we want for our donors, especially after promising a one-business-day response. We're sharing your comments with our towing partner network so we can tighten up communication and set clearer expectations about pickup timing up front, including situations where a driver's regular route to an area is only on certain days.
We appreciate you sticking with us through the process, and your donation will go on to make a real difference in your community. If you'd like to share any more details about your experience, please give us a call at (866) 233-8586, we'd welcome the chance to make it right.
Good follow up communications
Good follow up communications. Car was picked up on the first full business day after I contacted Goodwill.

Tow truck rescheduled 2 times
Tow truck company rescheduled 2 times and could not accommodate the 1-3 PM window we selected. The best they could do was 12 noon, which was not a convenient time for us. The tow truck driver was very courteous, capable, and did a great job. Overall, the scheduling could have been better.

Thank you for donating your Audi A4 to Goodwill Car Donations, and for your honest feedback. We're glad to hear your driver was courteous and did a great job, but we agree that the scheduling changes were not the experience we want for our donors.
Our manager, Jermaine, followed up with you directly to talk through what happened, and we appreciate you taking the time to speak with him. We're also taking your suggestion about vendor coverage in your area to heart as we look for ways to offer more convenient and flexible pickup windows going forward.
Thank you again for your donation and for helping us improve. If anything else comes up, please give us a call at (866) 233-8586.

I received a response immediately from the Goodwill team regarding the entire process. I was assigned a tow company with 24-48 hours and I was contacted by the tow company with 24 hours. The vehicle was picked up within the scheduled window.

Representative could provide more insight
Overall experience was positive, but I wish the representative was more transparent and honest that Goodwill Car Donations is different than "Goodwill of Southern California" when I tried to initially provide the GWSC reference code and explained that I was following up on car donation set up with GWSC.
Update: 08/04/2026
Goodwill car donation continue to provide excellent customer service/support. After identifying that I had concern about transparency, they reached out directly to clarify and look address any concerns that I might have.
