In the heart of North Dakota, many outdoor enthusiasts find joy and adventure on the rugged trails, hunting grounds, and expansive farmlands. From family outings to remote hunting trips, ATVs, UTVs, and side-by-sides are essential vehicles that enhance these experiences. Yet, as life changes, many individuals and families find themselves ready to part with their beloved off-road machines. By donating your ATV, UTV, or side-by-side to Drive for Good, you’re not only freeing up space in your garage, you’re also contributing to our community initiatives focused on helping others.
Many of our donors have rich histories tied to their off-road vehicles, often recalling those exhilarating rides through the Badlands or serene afternoons spent exploring the open countryside. Whether it’s a trusty Honda Rancher or a rugged Polaris RZR, your donation can help us raise funds that support important causes right here in North Dakota. When you choose to donate, you’re making a difference that goes beyond just a vehicle—you're empowering community growth and enrichment.

How pickup works
We understand that the logistics of donating an ATV, UTV, or side-by-side can seem daunting, but Drive for Good is here to simplify the process. Our team will coordinate pick-up directly from your location, whether that’s a farm, ranch, or your local hunting cabin. Typically, an enclosed trailer or small flatbed pickup is used for transport. For off-road-only vehicles, it’s common to work with a Manufacturer's Statement of Origin (MSO) and bill-of-sale chain instead of a title. Should your vehicle be stored at a location separate from where you live, we can arrange to meet at that location for a seamless pick-up.
What drives donation value
The value of your donated ATV, UTV, or side-by-side is influenced by several factors. Vehicles with more operating hours than mileage tend to attract better resale value, especially for 4-stroke models. Notably, popular brands like Polaris and Can-Am maintain strong market values. Well-maintained equipment with documented service records can command higher prices, while minor cosmetic damages—like dents and faded plastics—may lessen its value, but a running vehicle still retains a premium. Even non-running units can hold parts value, which positively impacts your donation's worth.
Documentation you need
- Title (if available) or MSO for off-road vehicles
- Bill-of-sale if no title is present
- Service records for maintenance history
- Appraisal for classic models (IRS Form 8283 Section B)
- Identification for donor verification
North Dakota specifics
In North Dakota, the rules surrounding ATV, UTV, and side-by-side ownership differ from standard vehicles. Many off-road vehicles do not require a title for ownership transfer; instead, we often utilize a bill-of-sale or MSO. This makes it easier for donors who may not have a title for their older or specialized vehicles. Local DMV regulations ensure that your donation process complies with state laws while promoting a straightforward transfer of ownership with minimal hassle.
