New Jersey Vehicle Donation
New Jersey Car Donation — Free Pickup for Veterans
Statewide New Jersey pickup at no cost, and every donation is tax-deductible.
A vehicle you no longer drive can do real work for veterans in New Jersey. Veterans Car Donation arranges free pickup across the state — from Newark, Jersey City, Paterson and Trenton to the small towns in between — and turns the vehicle into support for Veterans Care Charity.
There is no charge for towing, no repair required before pickup, and no obligation after you fill out the form.

Step 1 of 3
What the New Jersey donation process looks like
Donors in New Jersey follow the same short path from first call to tax receipt.
- Tell us about the vehicle — the short form takes about 60 seconds, or call (855) 681-1155 and a coordinator will take the details by phone.
- Schedule free pickup — a coordinator calls to arrange towing at a time that suits you, wherever the vehicle sits in New Jersey.
- Receive your paperwork — you get a donation receipt at pickup, plus IRS Form 1098-C if the vehicle sells for more than $500.
What we accept in New Jersey
Condition is rarely the deciding factor. Vehicles from New Jersey arrive running, barely running and not running at all, and all three are useful.
Mechanical failure, missing parts and cosmetic damage are all common. Describe the vehicle honestly on the form and the coordinator will tell you exactly what to expect.
