Do you charge an administration fee?
Giveacar is the original UK car donation not-for-profit social enterprise, and as such Giveacar reinvests every penny that is made into its advertising, staffing and administration costs.
To allow Giveacar to continue raising money for charities up and down the UK, Giveacar takes a small service charge from each donation. This is not a charge to the donor as the money is subtracted from the value of your donation.
Vehicles that raise up to £150 will have a 25% admin fee applied, and vehicles with a value of £150 and over will have a 30% admin fee applied. VAT of 5% is also deducted, but then the rest of the donation goes to your nominated charity. Giveacar is the only independent car donation company in the UK, and therefore our admin fee is our sole means of income.
With every vehicle that is donated, be it a motorbike, van or car, every single one contributes to Giveacar's ability to keep raising money for charities of all causes.

FAQs Donate your carFind a charity to support
I have recently given two vehicles away through Giveacar; one was our own whose proceeds went to a charity in Zambia and the other was my late sister's car from which we raised over £100 for Breast Cancer Now.
On both occasions I found the system was simple and highly efficient and the staff all very friendly. From initial contact to having the vehicle taken away was easy and quick - less than a week for one of them!
Highly recommended - getting rid of an old car, letting someone else do the work and donating to your chosen charity - what's not to like?!
