How to Get Rid of an Old Car

Do You Need to Unload an Old Car?

If you have an old car that you're not sure what to do with, one of the best ways to get rid of it is to donate it. At Newgate School, we take auto donations in almost all forms, whether they're running or not. Contact us today to find out more.

Reasons to Donate an Old Car

There are many reasons to consider donating an old car rather than sending it to a junkyard or trying to sell it privately. Donating is easy. All you have to do is complete our online donor form and follow the instructions to complete a fast and easy vehicle drop-off. There's no hassle, and most transactions are done in about ten minutes or less. Your auto donation receipt will guide you in figuring out your tax deduction. Finally, you'll feel good about giving to a great cause and helping our students.

No Appointment is Necessary to Drop Off Your Vehicle

If you'd rather get everything done at once, you don't even have to do anything online. Simply come to Newgate School during our business hours with your vehicle and paperwork. You don't need to make an appointment; our auto donation experts are ready to help. They will prepare the title and paperwork, then give you the donation receipt and a copy of the title. It should only take around ten minutes. After your vehicle is evaluated, you'll get a final donation receipt within 30 days. This receipt will show how we used your vehicle and help you find out your tax deduction.

What Happens to Your Donated Vehicle?

When you donate a vehicle to Newgate School, it can meet a variety of needs. Some vehicles are used as textbooks for students to help them learn how to fix vehicle systems. Other vehicles may be sold at auction, with the funds helping Newgate School serve young adults as they explore a new career. Vehicles that are running or can be returned to good working order may be used to provide life-changing transportation for single, working mothers. In other words, no matter what we use your vehicle for, it will help underserved communities.
