Donate Your Dodge
in Raleigh, NC
Cars Helping Kids picks up Dodges in Raleigh and surrounding NC area — running or not. Free towing, federal tax deduction, paperwork handled. Typical pickup: 4-7 business days.
Dodges we accept in Raleigh
Popular Dodge models we routinely process: Ram 1500, Ram 2500, Charger, Challenger, Durango, Grand Caravan, Journey, Avenger. Every year, every trim. Running or not. With salvage, rebuilt, or clean title (varies by state). High mileage is fine — old work trucks and high-mile sedans are some of our most common donations.
Dodge auction value
Ram trucks fetch strong auction; Chargers and Challengers are buyer favorites. Older Caravans and Stratuses still resell.
Your federal tax deduction equals the actual auction sale price reported on IRS Form 1098-C — not the Kelley Blue Book retail estimate. Most Dodges in our pipeline sell within 30-60 days of pickup.

What if my Dodge doesn't run?

If you've lost your Dodge's title, contact your state DMV to request a duplicate before pickup. Most states issue duplicates within 1-3 weeks. If there's a lien from a paid-off auto loan, request a lien release letter from the lender.
