Valuation Guide for Salvation Army Donations

Your continued support makes our good work possible. Your qualifying tax deductible donations are resold through our Salvation Army Thrift Stores and Salvation Army Family Stores through the country and serve to fund our Adult Rehabilitation program.

The Value Guide below will assist you in determining the tax-deductible value of any items you are donating to The Salvation Army. You will see that the table includes low and high estimates of value. Please choose a value within this range that is in keeping with your item's relative age and quality. If you have questions, your local Salvation Army Thrift Store and donation center will be able to assist you.

A receipt for your items may be obtained in one of two ways:

1. If you drop off a donation at a local Salvation Army Family Thrift Store or Corps (worship and community center), the clerk or receptionist will be happy to provide you with a receipt.

2. If you have your donations picked up, the truck driver will provide you with a receipt.

Automobiles

For information on our vehicle donation program, call 800-SA-TRUCK. While we often accept vehicles in any condition – running or not – due to differing regulations and other considerations, not all types of vehicles are accepted at all locations, so it's best to contact us first. Your donation will result in a tax deduction in accordance with IRS rules, and your vehicle will be used to help rehabilitate men and women through our Adult Rehabilitation Centers.

Online pickup scheduling for automobiles is also available in some areas of Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Oregon and Washington.
