When my vehicle is sold, how much of the money goes to Habitat?
Our partners at Advanced Remarketing Services return a higher percentage than any other vehicle processing entity. On a monthly basis, between 84% and 87% of the gross revenue generated from vehicle sales comes to Habitat for Humanity.

From 2019 to 2023, your vehicle donations helped generate more than $72 million for affordable homes.

What happens after my vehicle is picked up?
Your vehicle will be sold on behalf of Habitat through a national network of auctions and direct buyers.

After the vehicle has been sold, you will receive appropriate documentation for your taxes, based on the value of the sale.
