Memories Last Forever, But Your Car Won’t!

Nothing lasts forever — not even your car. When you’ve driven your vehicle into the ground, sentimentality isn’t a good enough reason to hold on to it. As your relationship with your old ride comes to an end, there’s nothing more exciting than buying a new set of wheels!

 

5 Signs That You Need a New Car

Besides being impractical and costly, driving a car that’s the equivalent of an already infirm senior citizen can also be dangerous. While there’s nothing wrong with being frugal, you also need to pay attention to the signs telling you that it’s time to get yourself a new car. Breast Cancer Car Donations shares those signs:

1. Your car has become a money pit.

Routine maintenance that includes replacing a worn set of tires, air filters, or windshield wiper blades happens every once in a while. However, if your vehicle constantly requires maintenance and parts replacement, you have to let it go. Otherwise, you’ll find yourself spending more time at the auto repair shop and depleting your savings account.

2. You’re driving a gas guzzler.

You know that you’re spending too much money on gas when you’re at the gas station more than two times a week. While you may not be making any more payments on a vehicle you bought in the 1990s, your frequent trips to the gas pump will add up in terms of cost. Replace that old jalopy with something more fuel-efficient.

3. Your vehicle no longer fits you.

Your old commuter car might have served you well when you were still single and starting your first job. However, with the third baby on the way and more car seats to install, a roomy minivan may be more compatible with your growing family. When your life and lifestyle change, you need to find other car options that better suit you.

4. Your safety is being compromised.

It doesn’t matter how well you maintain your old vehicle — it will eventually become unreliable. The last thing you’d want is to put your safety at risk inside a car that has become prone to breakdowns. Replace it with a modern vehicle that’s equipped with various safety features, including blind-spot detectors, more airbags, and backup cameras.

5. Your tin can continuously fails emissions tests.

You know you’re driving an outdated vehicle when it keeps on failing environmental emissions tests. If you want to save our home planet from harm, replace your old car with a new one that comes with a “drive clean” technology.

 

Donate Your Old Car and Move On!

If you’re thinking about disposing of your worn-out sedan, contact us at Breast Cancer Car Donations. When you donate that vehicle to us, we’ll transform it into a life-saving tool for the benefit of uninsured and indigent breast cancer patients in your local community.

Our team will fix and polish your donated auto before auctioning it off. We’ll then use the proceeds to support the life-saving programs of our charity partners. Like us, these IRS-approved 501(c)(3) nonprofits are fully committed to helping needy breast cancer patients beat the disease.

Our charity partners use the funding we give them to provide their beneficiaries with easy access to top cancer centers as well as financial assistance to help cover the costs of their treatments, doctor consultations, hospital fees, medications, and other essential health care services. Other beneficiaries get to receive free breast cancer screening and prevention and education services.

Donating a vehicle to us is the simplest and most convenient way to dispose of an unwanted car. You can make your donation in the comfort of your home with just a short phone call to us.

In exchange for your contribution, we’ll mail to you your 100% tax-deductible sales receipt soon after the sale of your car. With this receipt, you can claim the maximum tax deduction in the next tax season.

We’ll also haul away your unwanted vehicle for free at a date, time, and place of your convenience. You can avail yourself of this service wherever you are in the country.

However, the best reward you’ll get is not a material thing. It’s the joy and satisfaction you’ll experience, knowing that your donation will be used to help save lives.

We accept nearly all types of vehicles, including those that are no longer in good condition.

Feel free to visit our FAQs page to learn more about our donation program. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact us through our 24/7 toll-free hotline at 866-540-5069. You may also leave us a message here.
