Vehicle Donations

The Vehicle Donation Program receives donated vehicles: cars, motorcycles, trucks, boats, motor homes, travel trailers, and aircraft to sell on our virtual lot (e.g. Peddler) or at live auction. Proceeds from the sale supports VOA Oregon’s mission of changing lives by promoting self-determination, building strong communities, and standing for social justice. Vehicles are picked up free of charge and inspected to determine how to maximize the value of each donation. Our program has served the Oregon community for over 25 years, and our experienced team provides a high level of customer satisfaction. The process is simple, hassle-free, and convenient.

Frequently Asked Questions

There are many reasons, including:

  • You may receive greater value for your vehicle as a charitable contribution on your itemized tax return.
  • You don’t have to deal with the stress of trying to sell your vehicle!
  • The funds from the sale of your vehicle stay right here in Oregon to help your community.

98% of the proceeds from the sale of your vehicle will go towards our programs here at VOA Oregon.

Your vehicle will be inspected to determine its best possible use, and whether its maximum value will be gained through our wholesale, retail, or recycling channels. The money earned goes towards our programs which focus on family safety, substance use, behavioral health, and reentry from the criminal justice system.

We accept running and non-running vehicles that can be started with a jump start. (Some restrictions may apply to oversized vehicles and tow range.)

All kinds! Cars, trucks, boats, motor homes, travel trailers, motorcycles, and aircraft, to name a few. We have even received and sold a fire engine!

We pick up donations from Portland to Eugene and the surrounding metro areas. There is never a towing charge to the donor.

As long as the vehicle is physically located in our area, we can process a donation with an out-of-state title and we can accept vehicles from almost any state.

Volunteers of America Oregon is one of the oldest non-profits in the state, helping those who need us most since 1896. We operate our own Vehicle Donations program, so there are no 3rd parties involved in the sale.
