Condition & logistics
Running vs. Not Running
If your RV is in running condition, it’s much more valuable—think higher tax deductions for you! But don’t worry, we also accept RVs that aren’t operational. Every vehicle can make a difference.
Title Issues
Ensure you have the title for your RV. If you don’t, we can help guide you through the steps to get a replacement. Clear title means a smoother donation process for everyone!
Storage and Pickup Logistics
We understand that RVs can take up a lot of space. That’s why we offer pick-up services throughout Wisconsin, even from storage facilities! Just give us the location, and we’ll handle the rest.
Title transfer & paperwork
Transferring the title of your RV in Wisconsin is straightforward. You’ll need to complete the appropriate DMV forms, which we can assist you with. Notarization is required for the title transfer, so don’t forget to have it signed. Remember to return your old plates as well—this helps streamline the process and keeps things in good standing.
Tax deduction for this donation
Your generous RV donation could provide you with a tax deduction in the range of $8,000 to $25,000. We will send you IRS Form 1098-C after the donation, which confirms the charitable contribution, making it easier for you to claim your deduction when tax season rolls around.
Local context — Wisconsin
In Wisconsin, RV donations come from all walks of life—from families upgrading to newer models to retirees downsizing after years of adventure. Sometimes the call of the open road makes way for new chapters, such as relocation or even divorce. The local culture is steeped in outdoor activities, and many Wisconsinites love to hit the road to explore our beautiful state’s parks and lakes. With a robust RV community, it's not uncommon to see neighbors passing on their beloved but no longer needed vehicles to those who will cherish them.
