Categories we accept
Cars and sedans are often sold at auctions, with proceeds directly supporting our benefits services. Donations can also contribute to parts recycling, providing sustainable options for vehicles in need of repair.
Sedans are popular among Maine’s commuters, making them a familiar sight on our scenic roads year-round.
Pickup trucks tend to have great resale value at auctions, appealing to local buyers. Parts from those which aren't resalable can be salvaged, effectively helping fund our outreach efforts.
With so many folks utilizing pickups for work and recreation in Maine’s rugged outdoors, your truck's contributions are especially meaningful.
SUVs and crossovers are frequently resold, and if not in good condition, they are disassembled for parts, contributing to local mechanics and service shops.
Given Maine's diverse terrain, SUVs are essential for both family trips and outdoor adventures, making them highly valued donations.
Donated motorcycles often go to auction, resulting in funding to support various local initiatives or are utilized for parts if needed.
Motorcycle rides are a quintessential part of summer in Maine, making your bike a lovely donation for those who cherish the open road.
RVs and campers can be auctioned for a solid return, with any non-drivable units being recycled to retrieve usable materials.
As many residents embrace camping alongside our beautiful shores and mountains, RV donations help foster a love for Maine’s natural beauty.
Boats often fetch a good price at local auctions or can be stripped for parts, benefiting fundraisers aimed at local families in need.
With our stunning coastlines, boats truly resonate with our communities, especially among fishing enthusiasts and summer adventurers.
Commercial vehicles are typically sold at auctions, providing a great return to fund our essential services or can be recycled if necessary.
Many businesses in Maine depend on commercial vehicles, making their donations essential for maintaining local economy and services.
Even non-running vehicles can still make a difference, as they can be sold for parts, ensuring we can continue to fund local initiatives.
Non-running vehicles often have potential for repair, helping those in rural Maine who rely on affordable transportation.
Condition guide
At Maine Motors Giveback, we understand that vehicles come in all conditions. Running vehicles are easily accepted and can be sold directly, while non-running vehicles still qualify for donation. As long as you have a title, we can help process your donation to ensure it benefits our community.
It’s important to note that vehicles with salvage titles may be accepted on a case-by-case basis depending on their condition. If you have a vehicle that has been rebuilt or reconstructed, we can also consider it for donation, but those with liens or missing titles typically cannot be processed. Our goal is to accommodate as many donations as possible, so don’t hesitate to reach out!
