When you choose Breast Cancer Car Donations, you turn something you no longer need into meaningful support for people facing breast cancer. The proceeds from your donation help fund treatment resources and research.
Whether you own a car, truck, motorcycle, RV, or another qualifying vehicle, our team makes the process simple with no selling required and no out-of-pocket costs on your end. You clear valuable space at home while making a lasting difference for individuals and families in Birmingham and beyond.
How One Vehicle Can Fund Screening and Treatment
One vehicle donation creates lasting support long after it leaves your driveway. After your donated vehicle is sold, the proceeds help give back to programs that provide breast cancer screenings, patient services, treatment resources, education, and ongoing research. Every donation helps expand access to care for people who need it most.
Many donors tell us they are relieved to see an unused vehicle become something positive instead of continuing to collect dust. Instead of spending time advertising the vehicle you no longer drive and meeting with buyers to make negotiations, you can complete the donation in just a few simple steps and feel good knowing the proceeds would help others in their community.
Donate Your Car in Birmingham in 3 Easy Steps
We make vehicle donations simple from beginning to end. Our team handles the details while keeping you informed throughout the process.
Step 1: Contact Our Team
Start by calling (866) 540-5069 or completing our secure online donation form. Tell us a few basic details about your vehicle, including its make, model, condition, and location.
Step 2: Schedule Free Pickup
Once we review your information, we'll schedule a pickup time that works for you. Pickup is often available within a few business days depending on scheduling. You do not have to pay for towing, and in many situations you do not need to be present when the vehicle is picked up.
Step 3: Receive Your Tax Documentation
After your vehicle is sold, we'll mail your tax receipt for your records. If you ever want an update on your donation, simply contact our team and we'll be happy to help.
What Happens After You Donate Your Vehicle?
After pickup, your vehicle is prepared for sale through our trusted network. Once the sale is complete, we'll send your tax receipt. If you would like to check the status of your donation at any point, our team is always available to provide an update.
What Are the Accepted Vehicle Types?
We accept many different types of vehicles, including:
- Cars
- Trucks
- Boats
- RVs
- Motorcycles
Many running and non-running vehicles qualify for donation. We generally cannot accept hazardous materials or vehicles that cannot be safely removed. A title is preferred, and if yours is missing, our team may be able to help you obtain a replacement. To help speed up the review process, you may also upload your VIN or a few photos when submitting your donation.
How Do Tax Deductions Work?
After your donated vehicle is sold, you'll receive an IRS tax receipt that documents the sale. Depending on your individual tax situation, you may qualify for a deduction based on current IRS guidelines. Some donors also receive IRS Form 1098-C when required.
Because every tax situation is different, we recommend speaking with a qualified tax advisor about your specific deduction.
