Goodwill Auto Auction
Extra Mileage that Matters
Time to part with a used vehicle? Let the last few miles make a difference by donating it to the Dayton Goodwill Auto Auction.
While we recognize that transportation is a barrier for those in need, GESMV does not utilize the auto auction to repair donated cars and/or give them away. Instead, 87% of sales generated through the online auction site is reinvested into 40+ local programs. We believe these services offer wider-reaching, longer-term supports that help our neighbors belong, contribute, and thrive.
Just like purchases and donations from our Goodwill retail stores, every Auto Auction sale helps fund job readiness, adult day programs for seniors and inviduals with disabilities, counseling, free medical equipment loan and more!

Donate a Vehicle
Eventually, everyone asks the same questions about what to do with their used vehicle:
- Are the cost of repairs really worth the investment?
- Do I really want the hassle of selling by owner?
- How much will it cost me to tow this to the scrap yard?
- I want to reclaim some space- how do I get rid of this thing?
- Is there some way to help others by letting go of this used car?
Sound familiar? We're here to help! We accept almost all modes of transportation, working or not (i.e. cars, trucks, boats, motorcycles, RVs, fleet vehicles, industrial trucks and farm equipment). Vehicles do not need to run, but must be fully intact and not absent of parts. We handle all the paperwork and provide any information you need for your taxes.
