Morris Plains, New Jersey Car Donations: Nothing to Lose, Everything to Gain

If you are looking for a meaningful way to help your community, then participating in our Morris Plains, New Jersey car donations program is your best bet. Goodwill Car Donations will use your donated car to extend significant assistance to the disadvantaged people in your community that will transform their lives.

These are the men and women who live among you who are saddled with various forms of disabilities, lack education or skills, and other personal adversities that keep them rooted in poverty and miserable existence.

We sell at auction all vehicles donated to us and use the proceeds to help finance the various critical programs of Goodwill nonprofit organizations all over the country.

Here in Morris Plains, NJ, the Goodwill nonprofits use the funding to deliver vital services to the less privileged residents of your town. These services include job training and placement, onsite and virtual skills training and mentoring, youth education and employment, career services, disability benefits support, and family strengthening projects.

You can help us continue delivering these services by taking part in our Morris Plains, New Jersey car donations program. Thanks to your car donation, those who enlist in our job and skills training programs will be able to acquire the mental tools needed to qualify for decent jobs. As a result, these once idle and dependent individuals will be able to support themselves and their families. Through work, they will be able to contribute to the growth and progress of your community and our nation.

Our 3-Step Car Donation Process

Providing top-quality service is our priority at Goodwill Car Donations. Our donation process is easy, fast, and convenient. Here’s a brief guide to the three-step donation process that we follow in our Morris Plains, New Jersey car donations program:

1. Reach out to us.

Call us at our toll-free 24/7 hotline 866-233-8586 or fill out our online donation form, which you can find on the right side of this page. Tell us your name, email address, and phone number as well as your car’s make, model, year, mileage, VIN, title availability, and a brief description of its running condition.

2. We tow your vehicle.

We schedule your vehicle’s pickup based on your preferred date, time, and place. Expect a tow truck from a licensed towing company that we assigned for the job to be at the designated pickup area on schedule. It’s totally fine with us if you need to be someplace else as long as we’ll be able to get hold of your vehicle’s keys and title. The tow truck driver will hand over a towing receipt to you or your designated representative. The receipt releases you from all liabilities on your vehicle from that point onward. Thus, you can now de-register your vehicle, cancel its insurance coverage, and properly dispose of your license plates.

3. Get your tax deduction receipt.

We auction off your vehicle. Within 30 days after your vehicle is sold to the highest bidder, we’ll send you by mail your tax-deductible sales receipt. This shows the final selling price of your vehicle. If the amount is above $500, you can claim that same amount as your tax deduction when you file your itemized federal income tax return for the next tax-filing season. If less than $500, you have the option to base your tax deduction claim on your vehicle’s fair market value not exceeding $500. Keep the receipt since you will need to attach this to the IRS form you will use.
