Click here to donate a car in Nevada, benefiting Make-A-Wish kids!

Q:Where do I sign the Title?

A:On the front of the Title please sign where it reads “Signature of Seller(s)” and next to that “Printed names of Seller(s).”

Nevada Title Example

Q:I paid off my car but there is still a lienholder listed?

The lienholder should have provided a Lien Release or completed the Lien Release section on Title when it was paid off. If a Lien Release is required please contact your financial institution. We will request one if necessary directly from the bank or other financial institution on your behalf but may need a written authorization and copy of your driver’s license.

Q:What do I put down for the Buyer?

A:We prefer it be left blank along with the odometer reading as the processing partner will record the exact reading at time of processing and handle the buyer and dealer license information.

Information that is provided by the processing partner may be put in the buyer section.

Q:Can I still donate if I can’t find my Title?

A:We will still attempt to process your donation without the title, though the process may be a bit more complicated.

Q:I’m donating the vehicle on behalf of Deceased loved one, what do I need to provide?

A:Titles indicating “Or” and “And/Or” require one signature

Titles Indicating “And” require Original Certified Death Certificate. Survivor signs both names on title and lists their relationship to deceased

If probated, need Probate paperwork and copy of Original Certified Death Certificate

If no probate and estate worth less than $20,000 – Need Affidavit for transfer. Form RD24 signed by heirs with Original Certified Death Certificate

Q:How do I release the liability and what do I do with my plates?

A:In the state of Nevada the donor is responsible for completing the Motor Vehicle Transfer Notification known as the Vehicle Resale Notification which will notify the state that the donor has sold or otherwise transferred the vehicle elsewhere for liability purposes. The form can be obtained by calling or going to the DMV in person. Also, Nevada license plates have to be removed from the vehicle prior to donation and surrendered in person or through the mail to the Nevada DMV within 30 days of the donation. By surrendering the plates it will cancel the registration.

Q:Will you take a vehicle that has mechanical problems?

A:Vehicles are reviewed and sent to a processing partner, however if we are unable to find a buyer for the vehicle, we will have to unfortunately decline the donation.

*Boats, RV’s, ATV, Campers or industrial equipment are taken on a case by case basis*
