Do you have a car, truck, motorcycle, RV, or boat that you no longer want?
Turn your vehicle into the sweet sounds of your favorite radio station by donating it to WORT. It’s easy; we can arrange pick up from your home, workplace, or a service station–anywhere in the United States! Even if it no longer runs, it’s worth money to us.
Call toll-free: 833-WORT-CAR (833-967-8227) and the folks at the non-profit we partner with, CARS, will complete all forms, answer any of your questions, and arrange the pick-up of your vehicle. Or fill out the form below and someone from CARS will get back to you.
You should receive an email acknowledgment from CARS soon after your vehicle is picked up. Please hold on to this email until you receive the tax receipt (following the sale of the car). It typically takes 4 –10 weeks to inspect and clean your vehicle, then transport and sell it at the auction that best suits it. Once it’s sold, CARS mails you the tax receipt (and sends WORT a check).
A common question that we get is, “How much does WORT receive from the sale of my vehicle?” The answer varies by vehicle. We receive, on average, about 72% of whatever the vehicle sells for. Cars that no longer run and cannot be easily repaired are sold for scrap or parts. After deducting the cost to tow, we might receive 65% of the sale. We receive between 70 and 80% of the sale price for cars that run well.
We make an annual comparison of the compensation we receive for donated vehicles and CARS continues, year after year, to offer the best value for WORT.
If you haven’t received a tax receipt after 12 weeks or you have questions about the car donation process, please email susan@wortfm.org, or call 608-321-9579, and a WORT staff member will get back to you within 24 business hours.
