We are now accepting donations of new or used cars. Donations will be used to generate funds to support our community programs.
To initiate your donation, please complete The Arc’s Car Donation Form.
Process
-
The vehicle is assigned to an auction company which schedules pickup with the donor.
-
Towing is free for the donor.
-
Vehicles are scheduled within 1-3 business days and picked up within 1-5 business days.
-
Note: All cars that are donated must have a clean title.
-
Donors do not have to be present when the vehicle is picked up, but the title must be provided.
-
Monthly checks are issued directly to The Arc. Checks are mailed monthly, following receipt of the vehicle’s auction proceeds. Along with the check, the chapter receives a spreadsheet with transaction and donor information. Donation files are maintained by Melwood for a period of 3 years.
