The Donation Process

 

Contact us, either by our toll-free hot line 1-87-RED-CROSS or simply fill out the on-line form. We will set up an appointment to pick up your vehicle anywhere it's convenient for you. 
Normally, the actual pick up of your vehicle will be completed within 1-3 days from the time of your call. 


When our courteous staff arrives, they will present you with a receipt issued from your local American Red Cross Chapter, and you will turn over your donated vehicle along with your title. Our drivers will also present you with an I.D. card upon request to ensure the security of your donation.

Very Important Title Info

Unlike most other auto donation programs, The American Red Cross actually transfers title to your donated vehicle within 24 hours of receiving your donation, relieving you from any future liability concerning your donated vehicle. This is very important to you as the donor.

On the back of your title, please fill in as follows:

Buyer's name:
American Red Cross
Sale price:
"Donation"
Date of sale:
Date vehicle is actually picked up
Seller's signature:
Your signature required

If you have any questions regarding how to fill out your title, please don’t hesitate to contact our office or ask our drivers for assistance. Title mistakes are very time consuming and costly to correct.
