Condition & logistics
Running vs Not Running
We accept motorcycles regardless of their condition. Whether your bike is in mint condition or has seen better days, we can work with you. Donating a non-running motorcycle can still help fund local charities and services.
Title Issues
For your motorcycle donation, ensure that the title is signed on the back, including the odometer reading. If you have lost the title, don't worry—we can guide you on how to obtain a duplicate title to complete your donation.
Storage & Pickup Logistics
We offer free pickup service for your motorcycle donation, making it easy to clear space in your garage. If it’s not running, we'll handle the logistics—no need to worry about transporting it yourself.
Title transfer & paperwork
Transferring your motorcycle title in Oklahoma is straightforward. Make sure to sign the back of the title with the odometer reading and complete the necessary forms. If you’re unsure, the Oklahoma DMV website provides helpful guides, including details on how to file for a duplicate title if needed. Remember to return your license plate to avoid unnecessary fees, and keep records of the transfer for your own peace of mind.
Tax deduction for this donation
When you donate your motorcycle, you may be eligible for a tax deduction based on its fair market value. The typical range for motorcycle deductions can be anywhere from $500 to $5,000, depending on the make, model, and condition. After the donation, we’ll provide you with IRS Form 1098-C, which details your donation for tax purposes.
Local context — Tulsa
Motorcycles are a big part of Tulsa’s culture, whether it’s for the thrill of the open road or the local biker meet-ups at the iconic Blue Dome District. Many donations come from individuals relocating or downsizing their homes. Perhaps you’ve experienced a failed inspection or simply decided to trade your motorcycle for something more manageable. Whatever the reason, when you donate, you contribute to a community that values support and connection.
