Giving Tuesday brings us together

“GivingTuesday is a global movement unleashing the power of people and organizations to transform their communities and the world.” How will you get involved on December 2, 2025?

So many ways to participate this December

Look no further for ways to share this Giving Tuesday! Donate a Car Canada processes donations for any Canadian charity! Each one will offer ways that you can help. Just as you. Where you are. Today!

Many of us are not in a position to give financially. No problem! The smallest acts of kindness bring meaningful relief. Your innate Goodness? It matters! Share it in the way that you are best able. A written note, or a pot of soup. An offer of childcare, or pet sitting. A simple, authentic smile.

‘Have your feet under you and feeling some financial freedom? Canadian charities will put your dollars and cents to excellent work. Caring, skilled men, women, and children are manning the wheel at our charities. What they need more than anything? The finances to keep things in motion. Your financial offering can make such a difference.

On the other hand, some charities will accept gifts-in-kind — that lightly used couch, coat, or pair of shoes will help!

Get Intentional

Give where you feel the love! CanadaHelps is a fabulous resource in selecting charities to support.

The cause that has most-helped you or your loved ones may be just the place to start this Giving Tuesday. If vulnerable pets or our remarkable Canadian wildlife tug at your heartstrings, give them a paw (or talon…or fin) up!

In giving creatively, you might even think about the impact your gift has on more than one level. Giving your lightly used household items, or a vehicle, means practical help to the recipient. That kind of giving does more! It reduces waste and is helpful environmentally. It clears your own space (possibly aiding in your own wellbeing). The benefits touch into your life, the life (lives) of your recipient, and the broader world.

Your Giving Tuesday

We’d love to see you this Giving Tuesday! Pick your charity and do up our quick donation form (it takes less than 10 minutes to fill out). Your charity not on our list? No problem! Just let us know and we’ll direct your gift to the cause you love! We’ll have you set up with your free tow and on your way to a tax receipt in short order!

That free tow will be managed efficiently, and with care. Typically, donated vehicles are picked up within 1 – 3 business days. You’ll be called in advance to ensure timing that suits you well.

The gift on top of the gift in all of this? Just as there is no cost to you, there is no cost to your charity of choice. We are here to ensure this full process is managed on behalf of yourself and your charity so that you can all keep doing what you need to do!

In anticipation of making a big difference together…

Donate a car in 5 minutes: You’re just a few clicks away from done!

When you click the “Donate Now” button on our website you’re on your way to done. You can literally donate a car in 5 minutes. The donation form you’ll find on the other end of your click will ask for these important vehicle details:

Year/Make/Model/Colour

Mileage

VIN (we’ll tell you where to find this if you’re not too sure)

And, of course, you’ll be asked to select the Canadian charity that will receive the net proceeds from the re-sale or recycling of your donated vehicle.

Simple. Quick!

Where can I donate my car: Your charity of choice

We are so lucky to have the freedom to serve every Canadian charity through vehicle donation! It really is possible for you to choose any cause that you love when donating a car, truck, van, SUV, or motorcycle. As long as that charity is registered in Canada, we will disburse the net proceeds of re-sale or recycling right to them!

This all happens at $0.00 cost to the charity. They do not pay us to provide this service, and they are not subject to any sneaky hidden fees or obligations. We truly are here to facilitate this process for you, the donor, and for your charity.

Oh! Did we mention there is no cost to you either? Agents in every province in Canada are set up to serve you with a free pick-up or hiker service!

Donors sometimes wonder who the “best” charity is for their car donation. Our answer to that is an easy, “The one you love!”

Your charity will not actually deal with your vehicle in any way. There are not better re-sale or recycle outcomes based on which charity is receiving the gift. Donation amounts are all determined by the metal industry, your location, and our ever-changing market.

Where can I donate my car: Your pin on the map

Vehicle donation is capably, quickly (did we mention you can get things rolling to donate a car in 5 minutes?), and cheerfully supported from coast-to-coast in Canada. Every province has multiple regions where free tow support is happening every day.

That said, we do need to shuffle our feet apologetically here just a little.

If you are located in the territories, or in a more remote part of your province, we may be unable to get to you.

This is not for lack of wish and will! Your vehicle counts, and your hope to serve your charity is so important. Our limitations in this are due to industry service providers. If you happen to be in one of the areas we can’t reach, do contact us anyway? We are always at-the-ready to sign on new agents in previously unsupported areas! If we can find a way to process your vehicle for donation we certainly will.

I’m actually a charity representative — How do I sign up for this?

Welcome Charity Rep! We are so glad you’re here. When you sign up with us you will be added to the drop down list of organizations that donors select from when they are submitting their vehicle for donation.

We have a careful-and-seamless process for getting you on our easy-access list of charities.

If you pop over to our “Fundraising” button on the home page of our website you will be taken to a charity portal. From there you will be provided necessary documentation for our joyful collaboration. You will also be given direct contact information for our charities coordinator. They will be your guide in getting things like your website links set up so your donors know they can gift you in this unique way.

I’m a donor and I’m ready to roll!

If the answer to how you can donate a car in 5 minutes is landing with a little sparkplug energy, you’re almost there!

Simply fill in your online form. Remember to have your VIN, make, and model ready.

Then, watch your inbox. We will stay in careful contact about next steps, and you will receive your tax receipt on the other side of the re-sale or recycling of your donation. You will also be provided contact options for us and your agent so that you can reach everyone as you wish.

We are excited to see your donation and look forward to serving you and the cause you care about!
