How pickup works
Pickup logistics for your RV or motorhome donation are handled with care and professionalism. Delta Ride Exchange utilizes specialized RV-transport flatbed trucks or experienced drive-away services to ensure the safe transport of your vehicle. Often, collections are coordinated with storage lots or RV parks, especially when donors are not on-site. It's crucial to consider the RV's length and height, as most states enforce a maximum clearance of 13'6”. Our team will handle all the necessary arrangements to make this process effortless for you, allowing you to focus on the impact your donation will make.
What drives donation value
When calculating the donation value of your RV or motorhome, several key factors come into play. The condition of house systems like the roof, slides, plumbing, and air conditioning significantly influences overall value more than drivetrain condition. It's important to note that any water damage can lead to major devaluation. Additionally, providing recent maintenance records and the vehicle's history can enhance its appeal. Seasonality is also a vital consideration, as spring auctions generally yield the highest value for RVs. For classic RVs, obtaining an appraisal from a qualified appraiser is recommended for accurate valuation and to assist with IRS Form 8283 Section B.
