Running or not: what qualifies in Lewiston

Condition is rarely the deciding factor. Vehicles from Lewiston arrive running, barely running and not running at all, and all three are useful.

A failed inspection, body damage, a dead battery or years parked in the same spot will not disqualify a donation. If you are unsure, note it on the form and a coordinator will confirm before pickup.
