The Placer SPCA works with Car Program LLC to handle vehicle donations. After you submitt the Pick Up Request form to the Placer SPCA, Car Program LLC will proceed to try and find a buyer for your car (more than 90% success rate of finding a buyer).

Car Program LLC will then contact you within the week to arrange pick up of your car and to give you the proper paperwork needed for your taxes. If they are unable to sell your car, they will contact you and let you know they are unable to accept the donation. Once sold, Car Program LLC sends the profit made on the sale of your car to the Placer SPCA.

A: Yes, we are able to accept most vehicles running or not (exceptions include older vehicles whose value would not offset the cost of towing). To find out if we can accept your vehicle, please complete and submit our online donation form.

6. How is the value of my car determined?

It does not affect donors claiming $500 or less and for those donors who are not claiming a tax deduction. The Car Program LLC will mail a postcard to each donor whose gift generates a gross sale in excess of $500.. The Kelly Blue Book web site will be helpful in determining the value of your vehicle.
