Title transfer & paperwork
When donating a totaled or salvage-title car in Arkansas, you’ll need to complete some specific DMV requirements. Typically, you should fill out form 10-250 and have it notarized, which transfers the title. Additionally, you’ll need to return your license plates to the DMV. Fortunately, Arkansas Auto Bridge will assist you with these forms, guiding you through each step to ensure everything is in order.
Tax deduction for this donation
Your donation of a totaled or salvage-title vehicle can qualify for a tax deduction, typically ranging from $200 to the fair market value of the vehicle. After your donation, you’ll receive a Form 1098-C, which outlines the vehicle’s value and helps you during tax season. It’s a great way to support a local cause while also benefiting financially.
