Donate a Vehicle

Not always. It does have to have an engine and be towable. It varies from state to state and depends upon the year, make, and model of the vehicle. Sometimes if the cost to transport a vehicle will cost more than what it will bring at auction, it may be declined. Call our toll-free line (877.WSMC.CAR) or complete this online form to find out if your vehicle qualifies.

No, but you must be the legal titleholder.

You must obtain the title prior to donating it. Contact your local DMV to obtain a duplicate title.

Our driver will instruct you of the proper place to sign your title. You may need to sign a power of attorney authorizing us to transfer it. Our driver will let you know what is required, or you can call our toll-free number (877.WSMC.CAR) to speak our representative.



You will receive a tow receipt when the vehicle is picked up. Thirty days after the vehicle is sold, you will receive an acknowledgement. If your vehicle sells for more than $500, you will receive IRS Form 1098 B & C.

Effective 2005, if the value of the vehicle is more than $500, the taxpayer is limited to deducting the amount for which the vehicle sold. In such a case, you will receive a Form 1098 B & C within 30 days of sale. If the vehicle sells for less than $500, you will not receive IRS forms as you are not required to file them for vehicle donations up to $500. Please consult your tax adviser to determine your benefit or for additional information, visit the IRS website at http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-drop/n-05-44.pdf.

Your vehicle will be picked up by one of our courteous drivers and sold at auction. Cars are usually sold within 30 days of pickup. Some vehicles may take longer.

No. If you are out of our towing range, we can offer you the option to drop the vehicle off at our auction house at your convenience.

No. Occasionally, cars that are donated do not sell at auction. In those cases, the vehicles are sold for scrap metal.

Yes. If the vehicle sells for more than $500, you will receive IRS Form 1098 B & C. If not, you will simply receive an acknowledgement as required by the IRS.



Vehicles are picked up at a time that is convenient for you. Our representative will take all pertinent information regarding your donation and forward it to our tow company. That company will call you within 24 hours to set up an appointment. If you have not been called within 24 hours, please call 877-WSMC-CAR.

We take cars, boats (if they are on a trailer), motor homes, trucks, motorcycles (if they are operational), farm equipment, and recreational vehicles such as snowmobiles, jet skis, etc. Call our representative to find out if your vehicle qualifies.



There are several great reasons to donate:

1. 
You don't want to worry about selling your vehicle.
2. It is too expensive to repair your vehicle.
3. 
You don't trust your car to be safe on the road.
4. You need a tax write-off.

But the most important reason is that your donation will help WSMC provide the classical music you love! Call 877.WSMC.CAR today!
