Donate a Car in New Hampshire
Help Your New England Neighbors with Your Donated Car!
When you donate a car in New Hampshire to Good News Garage, we assess your vehicle’s potential to be repaired; if it is in good shape then we award it to someone in the community. If it is not safe enough or is too costly to repair or maintain, then it is auctioned. The proceeds are then used to repair another car, which will be awarded to someone in need of reliable transportation.
Every donated car helps local families in need and donors always qualify for a sizeable tax deduction!
Since 1996, we have provided nearly 6,000 New England families with donated cars. Car donors are what fuels our program!

Frequently Asked Questions
Common Questions on Donating a Car in New Hampshire
What do I need to donate my vehicle to Good News Garage in New Hampshire?
All you need is the car’s certificate of title and the keys!
What will happen to my vehicle after I donate it?
We inspect every donated car to see if it can be repaired and awarded to a neighbor in need. Donated vehicles that require excessive repairs or would be too expensive to maintain are sold at an auction. The sale of cars at auction provides critical funds to help pay for repairs on vehicles that are more appropriate for a client. No matter what, your donated vehicle helps your neighbors in need!
Did you know that most car donation charities sell 100% of the donated cars they receive? Our goal is always to repair and award donated cards back to people in our community working to move forward in their lives.
Will Good News Garage pick up my car in New Hampshire?
Yes! Good News Garage will tow away or pick up your vehicle free-of-charge from anywhere in Massachusetts or nearby states. We will work with you to schedule a time for pick-up that’s convenient for you.
Is my car donation tax deductible?
Yes! Good News Garage is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and is one of the few car donation charities in the country that can offer a fair market value tax deduction if your donated car is awarded to a family in need. This can mean hundreds, even thousands more in tax deductions than other charities can offer. To learn more, read our blog post, “How do vehicle donations work?“
You can find more information about vehicles as charitable donations in the IRS publication 4303 “A Donor’s Guide to Vehicle Donation.”
We encourage you to speak with a tax preparer to fully understand your tax deduction before donating.
How long does it take to donate a car in New Hampshire?
The car donation process is fast and easy! Our team will contact you to arrange the pickup of your car shortly after you submit our online donation form or call our office. You can start your online donation here.
Can I donate other types of motorized vehicles?
In addition to cars, trucks, and vans, you can donate your boat, motorcycle, moped, commercial van, handicapped-equipped vehicle, RV, tractor and more! Depending on the vehicle, Good News Garage may find it a new home or auction it to support our programs. Either way, donating any vehicle supports our program and helps us provide affordable, reliable cars to neighbors in need!
How It Works
Most car donation programs use a middle-man to process donations and sell 100% of the cars they receive. We’re different! Good News Garage allows you to maximize your impact, because our mission is to repair and provide as many cars as possible to local families.

Having a car has made my life so much easier -- easier to go to work and school to make a successful living for my family. I was able to go back to the community college that I used to attend years ago. I want to really thank you guys for assisting me in a time that I needed you the most.
