Yes, we accept trucks through our Staten Island car donation program, including trucks that do not run. Before arranging your donation, tell us what kind of truck you have, describe its current condition, and explain where it is parked. Those details give us a useful starting point for discussing your truck and its pickup.

We arrange vehicle pickup and towing at no cost to you. To get started, call us at 1-646-402-6102 or begin your staten island car donation online. Here are the details worth having nearby and the questions worth asking.

Describe the truck, not just its make

A short description can make the conversation more useful. Along with the year, make, and model, tell us whether you have a pickup, a truck with an enclosed cargo body, or another configuration. Mention anything that changes its overall size, such as an extended bed, a camper shell, or equipment attached to the body.

You can use this list to organize your notes before contacting us:

  • Basic identity: The truck’s year, make, model, and body style.
  • Size and configuration: Details such as cab style, bed length, or an attached cargo body.
  • Current condition: Whether it starts and runs, how long it has been parked, and any known damage.
  • Equipment and contents: Any racks, toolboxes, attachments, or belongings you want to discuss.

If you do not know a detail, tell us what you do know. Ask which additional information would help us discuss your particular truck rather than trying to guess.

Explain where the truck is parked

The pickup address is only part of the description. Tell us whether your truck is in a driveway, along a residential street, behind a gate, or in a garage. Mention narrow access, a sloped driveway, nearby parked vehicles, or anything overhead that you think may affect access.

For a nonrunning truck, describe its position as well as its condition. For example, let us know whether it is facing the street or parked behind another vehicle. You do not need to work out the towing method yourself. Ask us what details we need to plan pickup at that location.

Ask these questions before settling on pickup

  • Can we discuss my truck’s specific body style, size, and attached equipment?
  • What additional information do you need about its condition?
  • Is the current parking location suitable for the pickup arrangement?
  • What should I prepare before pickup, including keys and paperwork?
  • What should I do about belongings or equipment I want to keep?
  • Does anyone need to be present, and what timing should we discuss?

These questions help you turn a general interest in donating into a clear conversation about your own vehicle. Bring up any planned move, property access restriction, or availability issue early so we can discuss a convenient time and location with you.

Take the next step with your truck’s details ready

We sell donated vehicles at auction or recycle them into new materials, with proceeds benefiting charities partnered with Troops Relief Fund. Your first step is simply to tell us about the truck you would like to donate.

Call us at 1-646-402-6102 to discuss your truck and pickup questions, or start your donation online. Keep your notes handy so you can share the vehicle description, parking details, and scheduling questions in one conversation.
