Most cars and sedans are sold at auction, providing funds for our services. Vehicles in good condition often fetch better prices, while those needing repairs can still contribute to our mission.
From the scenic roads of the White Mountains to city commutes in Concord, sedans are a staple for many New Hampshire households.
Pickup trucks are typically auctioned off or sold for parts. The versatility of these vehicles makes them popular and valuable, often bringing in significant funding.
In New Hampshire, pickup trucks are essential for those in rural areas, whether it’s hauling firewood or getting around during winter storms.
SUVs and crossovers are often sold at auction, with their versatility appealing to families and outdoor enthusiasts alike, helping to generate needed funds.
With New Hampshire's varied terrain, SUVs are favored by families and adventurers who love exploring our state’s beautiful trails and parks.

Even in rural areas of New Hampshire, non-running vehicles can serve as valuable parts sources, helping to support local mechanics and DIY enthusiasts.
Condition guide
When considering donating your vehicle to WheelWise, it's important to understand the condition of your vehicle. We accept running vehicles, non-running vehicles, and even those with salvage titles. A running vehicle can easily be auctioned off or repurposed, while a non-running vehicle may still yield valuable parts or be recycled for metal, contributing to our mission. Regardless of its condition, every vehicle holds the potential to make a difference in our community.
However, not all vehicles qualify. If a vehicle has a salvage title, it may still be eligible for donation but could affect the sale process. Vehicles that are severely damaged or hazardous may not be accepted. We evaluate each donation case-by-case to ensure compliance with our guidelines while maximizing community benefits.
