Oregon title transfer

Oregon titles are processed through the Oregon DMV. To donate, sign the title in the "transfer of title by seller" section and hand it to our towing partner at pickup. Each state has specific paperwork requirements which our intake specialist walks through when you call.

If you've lost your Oregon title, contact the Oregon DMV for a duplicate before scheduling pickup. Most states issue duplicates within 7-15 business days for a small fee.

Tax deduction for Oregon donors

Oregon state income tax 4.75-9.9%. Your federal tax deduction equals the actual sale price of the vehicle at auction. Cars Helping Kids is a Georgia 501(c)(3) charity (program of Fainting Goat Foundation); donations from any US state qualify for the federal charitable deduction if you itemize.

If you itemize federally and Oregon has an income tax, the deduction typically flows to your state return as well. Consult a tax preparer for state-specific details.

What vehicles we accept in Oregon

Cars, trucks, SUVs, motorcycles, RVs, boats, jet skis, ATVs, trailers, and select commercial equipment — running or not, with or without clean title (varies by state). Even damaged vehicles (flood, fire, accident) are accepted; they sell at salvage auction.

What are the title requirements for vehicle donation in Oregon?
You need a clear title in your name. Oregon DMV duplicate-title applications are available online if you've lost yours; processing usually takes 1-3 weeks. Some states have bill-of-sale workarounds for older non-titled vehicles.
Is car donation in Oregon tax deductible?
Yes. Donations to Cars Helping Kids (Georgia 501(c)(3), EIN 99-0472123) are federally tax-deductible if you itemize. State income-tax treatment varies; if Oregon has a state income tax, the donation typically flows through.
How does the IRS Form 1098-C work for Oregon donors?
After we sell your vehicle at auction, IRS Form 1098-C is mailed to the address you provided in Oregon. The gross sale proceeds shown in box 4c become your federal tax deduction (or up to $500 under the safe-harbor rule for low-value sales).
