Condition guide
When it comes to vehicle donations, the condition of your vehicle plays a crucial role in its eligibility. Running vehicles are often sold at auctions or to local dealers, providing substantial funds for our mission. However, we also accept non-running vehicles; these can be stripped for parts or recycled, ensuring that even if the vehicle can't be driven, it can still contribute to community programs.
Regarding title status, vehicles with clean titles are straightforward. Salvage titles are accepted, but vehicles with rebuilt or reconstructed statuses might be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. If there's a lienholder present, we can usually work with you, while missing titles may require additional steps to verify ownership. We're committed to making the donation process as smooth as possible for Norfolk residents.
Title status
| Title status | Accepted? | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| clean title | yes | Clean title vehicles are easily accepted and typically sold directly at auction, maximizing funds for local services. |
| salvage | yes | Salvage title vehicles can still be valuable; we sell them for parts or recycle them, contributing to community support efforts. |
| rebuilt/reconstructed | case-by-case | These vehicles require further evaluation. If they meet our standards, they can still be processed for donation. |
| lienholder present | with restrictions | Vehicles with a lien must have the lien cleared. We'll guide you through this process to ensure a smooth donation. |
| missing title | with restrictions | If the title is missing, verification of ownership is necessary. We can assist you with this as needed. |
