Car Donations in Madison, WI

Join Madison, Wisconsin Car Donations to Give Breast Cancer Patients a Real Fighting Chance to Beat the Disease

Have a vehicle you no longer need in Madison, WI? We can help you donate it without finding a buyer or paying for towing. Here, you’ll learn what we accept, how pickup works, and which papers you’ll need. You’ll also see how your donation helps fund programs and services that support breast cancer patients and their families.

Turn an Unwanted Vehicle Into Support for Cancer Patients

Selling a vehicle yourself can take time. You may have to answer calls, meet buyers, or decide whether repairs are worth the cost. At Breast Cancer Car Donations, we offer a simpler way to let it go. We arrange pickup and handle the sale, so you don’t have to manage those tasks yourself.

The funds raised help nonprofit groups working to fight breast cancer. These groups support care and other important services for people facing the disease. By handling vehicle donations for them, we help them focus on their work. Your unwanted vehicle can support that effort, even if it’s been sitting unused for years.

Can You Donate Your Vehicle Even if It No Longer Runs?

We accept most cars, trucks, SUVs, boats, RVs, campers, and other vehicles. Yours doesn’t have to run or look perfect. We can even accept vehicles that have failed emissions tests. You’ll need to contact us to find out whether yours qualifies. In most cases, we can accept it with proof of ownership.

Maybe a breakdown on Interstate 39 or Interstate 90 left you ready to stop spending money on repairs. Or perhaps you no longer trust your vehicle for trips along Interstate 94. Tell us about its condition before ruling it out. Our accepted vehicles page can help you get a better idea of what we take.

How Do You Start Your Vehicle Donation Here in Madison?

Call us or fill out our online donation form. We’ll ask for basic details about your vehicle and confirm whether we can accept it. You can ask questions at the same time. There’s no need to figure everything out before reaching out, especially if you’re unsure about the title or how pickup will work.

We help donors throughout Wisconsin and all 50 states. Whether you’re near Cherokee Park or the University of Wisconsin Madison, the first step is the same: get in touch. You can learn more about us before starting, or read our guide to how donation works for a closer look at each step.

How Will You Arrange Free Pickup for My Donated Vehicle?

Once we approve your donation, we’ll contact a local towing company to arrange free pickup. We’ll work with you on a time and place that fits your plans. Tell us where the vehicle is, whether that’s near Hawk’s Landing / Linden Park, Hill Farms - University, Kennedy Park, or elsewhere in the Madison area.

You don’t need to be home during pickup if you arrange access to the keys and title ahead of time. If your vehicle stopped running along US Highway 12 or US Highway 14, explain where it is when we talk. Our donation FAQs may also answer questions you have before we set things up.

What Should You Have Ready Before Your Vehicle Pickup?

Before pickup, remove your personal items and have the keys and title ready as arranged. Check inside the vehicle so you don’t leave anything behind. If you have questions about proof of ownership, ask us early. We can help with title questions and explain what paperwork your state may require for the donation.

After pickup, you’ll receive a donation receipt. You should also follow your state’s rules for license plates, registration, and insurance. Whether your vehicle once took you along US Highway 18 or US Highway 151, there are still records to sort out when you let it go. Keep your donation papers together for easy reference later.

How Does Your Donation Help, and Could You Get a Deduction?

We review your donated vehicle and usually sell it through an auction. We work with several auction companies to help get the best possible sale price. The money raised supports organizations fighting breast cancer. Your donation may also qualify for a tax deduction under IRS rules. After the sale, we’ll send the sales receipt or tax form you need.

Want to help beyond donating? Ask American Family Children’s Hospital, SSM Health Saint Mary’s Hospital - Madison, or UnityPoint Health - Meriter Hospital about current ways to support cancer patients. You can also reach out to University Hospital or UW Health East Madison Hospital. Check with each hospital directly to learn whether opportunities are available and what they involve.
