Donate Your Boat

How to Donate (Boat Donations)

Instead of dealing with the hassles of selling your boat (advertising, waiting for a buyer), donate it to Helping Hands of America and we will come pick it up free of charge.

Receive a valuable tax deduction.

You will avoid the costs, time and responsibility of trying to sell your boat for yourself.

Save yourself the cost of placing ads in boat magazines or newspaper classifieds under “Boats” waiting possibly months to sell your boat, if at all, publishing your home phone number and address to thousands of people.

Avoid the hassle of having boat buyers come to your home to view your boat.

When you want to donate your boat through Helping Hands of America, all your personal information (i.e. telephone number, address etc…) is held in strict confidence and is the sole property of the charity. Helping Hands of America will not sell your personal information acquired from the donation and/or donation inquiry, to third parties, i.e. mailing lists, telemarketers etc…

Most boats donated to Helping Hands of America, are sold retail, not wholesale or dealer only boat auctions, which usually increases the sale price of your boat. This will impact your tax deduction from the donation of your boat.

Helping Hands of America personnel have had over 20 years experience and know how to get the most money for your donation. The more we sell your boat for, the more the charity receives and the bigger your tax deduction from the donation of your boat.

Your donation is 100% tax deductible.

Give Helping Hands of America a call at 888-881-9090 and speak to one of our donation representatives. You will have all the information you need within moments. Qualifying vessels will be picked up promptly at no cost to you. You will get the necessary tax documentation and a receipt from one of our four charities upon acceptance and pick up of your boat. *Restrictions may apply.

If you do plan to use your donation as a tax deduction, you may want to refer to your local and federal tax regulations.
