The best reason for you to donate your junk car is, it becomes a handy tax write off. You just need to obtain a receipt for it, to show that it went to a good cause, and your CPA will see that you get credit for it when tax season comes around.

When donating your vehicle, you need to consider these points

• You can get a tax reduction for donating your vehicle
• You have to ensure the charity you are making a donation to is a qualified 501(c)(3) organization or else you cannot claim your tax reduction
• Laws regarding transfer of automobile titles are different for each state

Many times you tend to take help of the intermediary firms to donate cars probably because you have shortage of time, and then make a mathematical calculation. At least ask the organization about how much they pay to the charity from the selling of the donated car. If the answer is about flat $100 on used and old car regardless of the price of the car or about $2,000 per month, then your donation is not eligible for the tax rebate and deduction.

The car donation process is fairly simple. Basically you call the donation center of your favorite charity or look one up on the internet. For example, if you live in Chicago you might type into Google "donate a car Chicago". Before calling a donation center you need to understand a few things. Usually the charity will not accept vehicles that are older than twenty years old. Also, if your vehicle isn't worth at least one hundred dollars they most likely will not want it. The reason is because most car donation places will sell the vehicle at auction. By the time they pay for the tow truck and auction fees they will not make a profit on a hundred dollar vehicle.

The most important thing about tax write offs is to make sure the proper paperwork is done. Once you donate the car you need a receipt. Without this receipt you won't qualify for tax deduction. When you donate a car, the car is inspected to estimate its sale value. There is an exception to dramatically increase the amount of tax write off. It's how the charity uses your donated car. If it happens that your car is used for "significant" tax-approved work for the charity, then you can claim the full market value of the car proceeds. Scams on car donation have been known to exist. Take the time to check out the palce you are planning on making such a substantial donation.

Choosing where to donate your car is also very helpful when it comes to tax deductions. When selecting your donation of choice make sure that all the required details are logged and you leave with the appropriate paperwork. Like the name and address of the charity organization, particular date of contribution, full details of the car, a document from the charitable organization and more importantly a copy of the title transfer. The reason for all this documentation is because you want to end the car insurance to cut down the costs.
