Condition & logistics
Running vs. Not
We prefer vehicles in running condition, but we sometimes accept non-running units if the title is clear. Just let us know the specifics!
Title Issues
A clear chain of title and a release under your business name are crucial for us to accept your vehicle. We can guide you through securing those documents.
Storage and Pickup Logistics
If your vehicle is on a worksite or in storage, we can coordinate pickup around your schedule. Just provide the location, and we’ll handle the rest!
Title transfer & paperwork
In Nebraska, the DMV requires specific forms for title transfer of Commercial and Fleet vehicles. You’ll need to fill out the appropriate application and ensure any liens are settled. Don’t forget to notarize the signature where required! If you have old plates, it’s your responsibility to return them, but we can help guide you through the process.
Tax deduction for this donation
When donating your Commercial or Fleet vehicle, you can typically expect a tax deduction in the range of $500 to the vehicle's fair market value. We’ll provide you with a 1098-C form to document your donation for tax purposes. It’s a win-win: you help a great cause and potentially reduce your tax burden!
Local context — Nebraska
In Nebraska, Commercial and Fleet vehicles often come from local businesses downsizing or transitioning. Many companies are moving toward more eco-friendly options, or they've found themselves facing changes due to relocations or failed inspections. Local contractors, service providers, and even municipal agencies regularly donate their used vehicles to support community initiatives.
