What we see in this class

How pickup works

At Valor Wheels, we make the donation process as seamless as possible. For ATVs, UTVs, and side-by-sides, a small flatbed pickup or trailer is typically used for collection. Donors often provide a bill of sale for off-road-only vehicles, and while many of these units come without a title, we can still facilitate the donation. Pickup can be coordinated at your home, ranch, or storage lot, ensuring a hassle-free experience. Our team will verify the vehicle's condition based on the VIN or engine number and help with any required documentation.

What drives donation value

The value of your ATV or UTV donation is influenced by several factors. For four-stroke ATVs, the number of operating hours can be a more significant value driver than mileage. Well-maintained vehicles with complete service records typically fetch a higher donation value. Popular models, particularly from Polaris and Can-Am, retain strong resale value in the used market. While minor cosmetic issues like dents or faded plastics may reduce the overall value, properly functioning units will maintain a premium. Even non-running units can hold positive parts value, making your donation worthwhile.

Documentation you need

Albuquerque specifics

In Albuquerque, the DMV has specific rules regarding off-road vehicles like ATVs and UTVs. These vehicles are often considered 'non-title' items, meaning a bill-of-sale is usually sufficient for donations. New Mexico recognizes the Manufacturer's Statement of Origin (MSO) for off-road vehicles, which simplifies the donation process. We are well-versed in state regulations to ensure your donation complies with all necessary requirements and that you receive the maximum benefit from your generous contribution.

FAQ

Do I need a title to donate my ATV?
Not necessarily. Many off-road vehicles can be accepted with just a bill of sale or MSO, especially if they are for off-road use only.
What if my ATV is not running?
We accept non-running ATVs and UTVs! They still have value, especially for parts, and your donation can still help support local veterans.
How is the value of my donation determined?
The value is based on factors such as model popularity, condition, and service records. We also consider running hours over mileage for ATVs.
Can I donate my vehicle if I lost the title?
Yes! As long as you can provide a bill of sale or the vehicle's MSO, we can proceed with your donation.
What types of vehicles do you accept?
We accept ATVs, UTVs, side-by-sides, dirt bikes, dual-sport bikes, and golf carts, both gas and electric. Unfortunately, we do not accept boats.
Is there a specific time for vehicle pickup?
Pickup times are flexible! We coordinate with you to find a suitable time for the pickup of your vehicle.
What should I do if I need an appraisal for a classic ATV?
For classic models, an appraisal is necessary for tax deduction purposes. You can request an appraisal from a qualified appraiser using IRS Form 8283 Section B.
