Many people find a vehicle that they like and drive it for a few years and when they are done with their vehicle they can simply trade it in for a new one. Some other people drive their cars for longer than a few years, maybe ten years or more, and then decide that they do not want to drive it anymore. Though it may seem economical at the time to keep the car for longer than just a few years, this can work against you because many dealerships will not take a car back that has been driven for more than just a few years and give you a new one because the car has been too worn down to be sold to someone else.

Though the dealership won't take it there is someone else that will. There are many people who are in need of driving a car no matter what condition it is in. Even if the car is not in great shape it may still be drivable. For those that need a car to get to work and school and cannot afford to buy a car because they have a low income or are out of work for some reason can find a solution with your old car.



Most people in need of a new car will not come directly to you so it is better to contact your local car donation center to find a donation center where you can bring the car. The car donation center will then be the place that the person in need of a car will contact in order to get the car.



One of the best things about donating your car besides the act of giving to charity to someone in need is that car donation is tax deductible, so you will pay less taxes the year you donate.
