In North Dakota, cars are a key means of transportation for residents living in rural areas or commuting to work, making these donations especially valuable.

Pickup Trucks

Pickup trucks are often sold at auction or refurbished for resale. Their utility makes them a popular choice among buyers, and they can also be parted out when necessary.

Given the outdoor lifestyle in North Dakota, pickups are essential for farmers and tradespeople, making your donation highly relevant.

SUVs & Crossovers
2005-present

SUVs and crossovers are usually sold at auction, but can also be used for parts. Their growing popularity ensures there’s a strong demand in the market.

North Dakota families often rely on SUVs for both daily commuting and recreational activities, making these donations particularly impactful.

Motorcycles

Motorcycles can be auctioned off or dismantled for parts, depending on their condition. There’s a niche market for bikes, especially during riding season.

With wide-open roads and stunning landscapes, North Dakota is a haven for motorcycle enthusiasts, making such donations cherished.

Whether it’s fishing or leisure, boats are a key part of life in North Dakota, especially near lakes and rivers.

Commercial Vehicles

Commercial vehicles are often sold at auction and can provide significant funding due to their specialized nature, often appealing to small business needs.

Non-running Vehicles

These vehicles may be salvaged for parts or recycled. Even if they’re not operable, they have value and can still contribute financially.

Many residents in North Dakota have older cars lying around; donating them can help us turn them into resources for our community.

Condition guide

When considering a vehicle donation, it's important to note the condition of the vehicle. Running vehicles typically fetch higher auction prices, while non-running vehicles can still hold value through parts or recycling. No matter the state of the vehicle, each contribution helps support local funding initiatives.

We also accept vehicles with salvage titles, rebuilt vehicles, and those with liens, although there may be specific considerations for these cases. Always check with us regarding the title status to ensure a smooth donation process. Your contribution, regardless of the vehicle's condition, can help make a difference in our community.
