At AutoLift, we accept nearly anything you can drive — or even what you can’t! If you have a vehicle taking up space, whether it's running or not, your donation can help connect your neighbors to essential resources in New Mexico. From cars to pickup trucks, motorcycles, and more, AutoLift is here to turn your unused vehicle into funding for vital local programs. Every donation matters, and we work hard to ensure that every vehicle serves a purpose, all while supporting our community.
Categories we accept
Cars and sedans often go to auction where they can fetch a good price, helping to fund community benefits. If they aren’t roadworthy, parts can be salvaged, providing additional value and supporting local needs.
In New Mexico, these vehicles are vital for families commuting to work or school, especially in cities like Albuquerque and Santa Fe.
Pickup trucks may be sold at auctions or dismantled for parts. Their versatility means they often have a high demand, which translates to better funding for local programs.
With many New Mexicans relying on pickups for work or farming, these donations directly impact livelihoods in rural areas.
SUVs and crossovers are popular at auction, especially for families needing reliable transport. If needed, parts are salvaged to maximize their donation potential.
In our vast landscapes, these vehicles are perfect for navigating both urban settings and off-road adventures.
Motorcycles might head to auction or be taken apart for parts. Their unique appeal often attracts specific buyers looking for a deal.
Motorcycles are a beloved mode of transport in New Mexico, especially during the scenic rides through the mountains.

With our beautiful landscapes, many New Mexicans cherish RVs for summer trips, making these donations resonate locally.
Boats that are donated are often sold at auction, or parts may be salvaged, helping to support programs. Sometimes, they can be refurbished for future use.

Condition guide
When considering a donation, it’s important to understand the condition of your vehicle. Running vehicles are typically the easiest to auction. However, even non-running vehicles can be accepted! If a vehicle is not operational, it can still be valuable for parts or recycling. We encourage all donors to reach out and discuss their vehicle’s condition; the goal is to turn every donation into community support!
Salvage titles are accepted as long as the vehicle has not been extensively damaged. Vehicles with rebuilt or reconstructed titles may also qualify but will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. In cases where a lienholder is present, we'll work with you to ensure that all obligations are met before donation. Your generous contributions can still make a significant impact.

Pickup considerations
AutoLift understands that not all vehicles are parked in ideal locations. We’re committed to making the donation process as smooth as possible. For immobile vehicles, our team will coordinate pickup, ensuring we accommodate various settings such as apartments, rural properties, or marinas found in beautiful New Mexico. We’ll work with you to schedule a time that suits your needs, guaranteeing a hassle-free experience for every donor.
