Summer Clean-Out: Garage Edition!

With summer vacations, sports, and camps coming to a close, now’s a great time to get organized before the busy school year. One area you don’t want to skip is your garage, which can accumulate a lot of “stuff” throughout the summer.

As you’re assessing your space, you might find your garage is crowded with a vehicle, motorcycle, or maybe even a boat that you no longer need or use. Good news — Ohio Valley Goodwill can take that unwanted vehicle off your hands and help you free up some much-needed garage space! 

In fact, donating your car in Cincinnati to Ohio Valley Goodwill is as easy as 1, 2, 3: 

#1: Fill Out Ohio Valley Goodwill’s Car Donation Form

The first step is simple: Fill out a vehicle donation form or call 513-612-5980 to get started. We just need a few details about your vehicle in order to accept your donation!

We gladly take donated cars, vans, trucks, RVs, motorcycles, boats, and even riding lawn mowers. If you have a unique vehicle you want to donate in Cincinnati, just give us a call to discuss!

#2: Drop Off Your Donation or Schedule a FREE Tow!

Ohio Valley Goodwill makes it easy to donate a car in Cincinnati and surrounding areas. We have convenient vehicle donation drop-off locations in and around Cincinnati, or you can call us to arrange a free tow. This allows us to accept vehicle donations in any condition, running or not!

Once you donate a car to Goodwill in Cincinnati, you’ll receive a receipt for your donation to use when filing your taxes. The IRS may allow you to claim a tax deduction for the value of your vehicle donation on your itemized return. Visit the IRS website for more details.

#3: Feel Good, Knowing Your Car Donation Makes a Difference

Unlike some “charitable” car donation services that outsource to for-profit third-party auction houses, Ohio Valley Goodwill’s weekly auto auction is completely owned and operated in-house, right here in Cincinnati. This means there’s no for-profit middleman taking a portion of the proceeds generated by your vehicle donation.

Bottom line: When you choose Ohio Valley Goodwill, you can be confident that the value of your car donation will stay local to Cincinnati, supporting a non-profit mission that empowers individuals with disabilities and veterans. That’s a great feeling!
