Wayne, New York Junkyards & Salvage Yards

It might seem like a good idea to donate your old car to a charity but this is not the best option. Car charities have to give up a lot of the value of your car in expenses. It is also difficult to obtain a tax break for a car donation. The best thing you can do is sell us your car and give the money to your favorite charity. This will be easier for you and put more money to a good cause.

Perhaps the easiest thing for you to do is ensure that you have the documents needed. Take note that the transaction will go faster and smoothly if you've got the needed documents, and you'll get your cash a lot more quicker in the process. Furthermore, you have to ensure that you have a state-issued ID that will match the title of your clunker.

When you have chosen to donate your clunker to a particular charity, then you either donate it to a charity with an inhouse automobile buying service, or the charity will have to deal with a junk car buyer. Either way, a lot, if not most, of the proceeds from your clunker end up at the hands of the buyers instead of the charity. Therefore, you may want to sell your junk car first, and then give the money you've earned to the charity yourself.
