How soon can a vehicle be picked up in Wisconsin?

Most donors hear from a coordinator the same day they submit the form, and pickup is usually scheduled within a few business days, depending on tow availability in Wisconsin and the time that works for you.

Can I donate more than one vehicle in Wisconsin?

Yes. Submit the form for the first vehicle and mention the others when the coordinator calls; multiple pickups in Wisconsin can often be arranged together.

Will you accept a vehicle in Wisconsin that does not run?

Yes. Non-running vehicles are accepted throughout Wisconsin. Flat tires, a dead battery, a failed inspection or years of sitting still are all fine — just describe the condition on the form.

Do I have to be present for the Wisconsin pickup?

Usually someone should be there to hand over the keys and any paperwork, but if that is not possible, tell the coordinator when they call and they will go through the alternatives with you.

Does towing cost anything in Wisconsin?

No. Towing anywhere in Wisconsin is free, and the cost is never passed back to you or deducted from your receipt.

Which Wisconsin cities do you serve?

Every community in Wisconsin is served, including Milwaukee, Madison, Green Bay and Kenosha. If your town is not listed on the site, pickup is still available — enter your ZIP code on the form.

Where a Wisconsin donation goes

Veterans Car Donation is the vehicle-donation program of Veterans Care Charity, a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit established in 2012 and based in Las Vegas, NV.

Money raised from Wisconsin vehicles funds meals, clothing and shelter assistance for veterans through the charity's outreach and advocacy work.

"Veterans Care Charity is committed to improving the lives of our American heroes, the Veterans. Through outreach and advocacy, we can make a difference."

What we accept in Wisconsin

Condition is rarely the deciding factor. Vehicles from Wisconsin 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.

What the Wisconsin donation process looks like

Donors in Wisconsin 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 Wisconsin.
Receive your paperwork — you get a donation receipt at pickup, plus IRS Form 1098-C if the vehicle sells for more than $500.

Free pickup in Wisconsin

Paperwork and tax deduction in Wisconsin

Your vehicle donation is tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law. Veterans Care Charity is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit. You will receive a donation receipt, and IRS Form 1098-C if your vehicle sells for more than $500. Please consult your tax advisor regarding your specific deduction.

The receipt you get at pickup is your first piece of documentation. If the vehicle sells above $500, Form 1098-C shows the gross sale amount for your return.
