Car Donation - Get The Facts First Before You Donate A Car
Look around the yard, do you have an old car you want to or should get rid of? Is the car just taking up precious space and slowly deteriorating from lack of maintenance and proper care because you don't need it? Then for you a charitable car donation may be worth more than using the car as a trade-in or in any other way. If you decide to donate a car and the car donation is accepted, the charity arranges for and takes care of any towing expenses and provides you with the necessary documents for your tax return.
Donating a car eliminates the expense of any advertising, the loss of privacy and possible security risk from potential buyers. No need to pay for annual vehicle registration and/or emissions testing or insurance, and no need for any repairs to keep your car in running condition while you wait for a buyer. It's easy, just fill out the forms the charity gives you and have them ready for the driver when he comes to pick up the car. A large chunk of your donation money when it's received by the charity after they sell the vehicle, should not taken out for administrative fees or investments. Make sure to find out how much of your donation money goes for these fees.
Your car, truck, RV, boat, aircraft or other vehicle is usually marketed by the charity through various means including their own car lots and middlemen and sold to a buyer who is in need of a good used vehicle. If you're thinking about donating your automobile to charity, be sure to check out thoroughly the charity or car donation program that handles the donation. Certain commercial firms and trade organizations publish guides known as 'blue books,' that state the average resale prices based on the model and year of your vehicle. You can find these blue books at your library in the reference section or online.
If your auto, truck, boat, motorcycle, RV or other vehicle is no longer of use to you, it can still go a long way toward helping support a reputable charity of your choice. Best of all, by not selling the car yourself, you don't have to worry or wonder about total strangers calling you and getting information about where you live, or coming to your house to see the car or other vehicle.
Charities don't need to send you a form for cars that eventually sell for less than $500, but you'll still be able to deduct up to $500 on your tax return.
If it's necessary to go through a car donation program middleman, which you can find online, find out what percentage of your donation will go to charity and shop around for the best deal. There are a quite a few of them online.
As for your benefits, you as the donor of the car benefits by receiving a tax receipt for the highest possible value of the vehicle.
Make sure you have easy access to the title of the vehicle. If you have an unused vehicle just sitting around, you never know when a storm might cause damage to your vehicle or if it might get vandalized or if it's on the street get involved in an accident. Some charities that run their own program, instead of hiring a program middleman, are discriminating about which vehicles they will accept, repair and materially improve. They sell most of their vehicles at retail prices. One thing to note, your vehicle must have all four of its tires inflated to be accepted.
Important, one of the exceptions to the new IRS tax regulations allows donors to still deduct the fair market value of their vehicle, provided the charity materially improves the vehicle. Charities usually provide you with a release of liability when they take your vehicle away. After the car sells, they send you a tax-deduction form that explains how much they received for your car.
Charities look at car donations from both the point of view of the donor of the car and of themselves. You can get a car donation tax deduction up to the maximum limits allowed by the IRS. You may also donate your car online to individual charities or through the car donation programs, some of which contract with charities.
It used to be that you could deduct the fair market value of the vehicle at the time of the deduction - but not anymore. In wear and tear, minor repairs and breakdowns, an average vehicle owner might spend more than $3000 per year so a good reason not to keep the extra car around. In the end the donor is responsible to an extent to ascertain the value of their car after discussing it with the charity.
A charity car donation is becoming more common as people discover the nice tax deduction that is available. Choosing the best charity for your car can be overwhelming and you want to make sure your choice is the best and right choice for you. Why not donate your car, truck, boat, RV, motorcycle or even aircraft today and enjoy a nice tax deduction on your annual income tax return.

Are You Going to Donate a Car to Charity?
Are you planning to donate your car to charity? It may not be as easy or simple as before. In the past, when you give your car to a non-profit organization, you deduct the fair market value of the vehicle. This value is the price that a willing buyer will pay. However, it does not work like that today. Since some people cheat on the amount of their vehicle value, there are new laws to help eliminate cheating. As a result the donation process is a little more involved now.
Income tax rule changes
You can no longer claim this type of donation on a normal tax form. Do you use 1040EZ or 1040A? You may be better off selling the car and donating the money. In other words, you now have to itemize deductions. A married couple filing jointly needs over $11,000 in deductions. Maybe your vehicle is worth a lot of money. You may be close to the allowed deduction amount. In this case, the donation may be a good tax strategy.
Remember that your donation value will not be equal to your tax liability. If you donate a five hundred dollar vehicle, you may only see a $125 reduction in your taxes. This depends on your total income and tax bracket.
Limiting amounts
If you donate a vehicle you do not know how much you can claim. It is based on what the organization sells it for. It is no longer based on the market value. You may donate a $700 vehicle. However, if they sell for $600 then that is all you can claim. You also have to wait until the vehicle is sold to find out the amount.
There is some protection, however. Suppose your vehicle sells for only $200 or $300. This will usually be below the actual value. In this case, you may still be able to claim a $500 deduction.
More things to consider
Make sure that you are giving the vehicle to a qualified organization. There are many professional fund raisers that will take your items. In some cases, only a small percentage of the money goes to the actual cause. Much of it may go into someone's bank account. There are some fundraisers that keep 99% of the money that they take in. Whenever possible, give directly to the cause of your choice. Avoid these fund raisers, if possible.
Summary
There are good reasons to donate a car to charity. Make sure that you understand the new tax changes. You may not get as big a tax break as you think. Also be certain that you give directly to your cause of choice. Remember the fundraisers may keep 99% of your donation.
