From Minneapolis-St. Paul to Duluth and the Iron Range, Salute Veterans Inc. accepts any titled vehicle from Minnesota residents — running or not — with free statewide pickup.
Minnesota supports a veteran community of roughly 260,000. The Minnesota National Guard maintains a substantial presence statewide, with Camp Ripley near Little Falls serving as the Guard's primary training facility — one of the largest National Guard training installations in the nation. St. Paul is the state capital, anchoring the eastern half of the Twin Cities.
Free vehicle pickup is available throughout Minnesota — from the Twin Cities metro south to Rochester, west to St. Cloud and the Red River Valley, north to Brainerd, Duluth, and the North Shore, and east to the Boundary Waters. VeteransDonations.org accepts any titled vehicle: cars, trucks, motorcycles, boats, RVs, jet skis, snowmobiles, ATVs — practical given Minnesota's lake country and four-season recreation culture. Whether the vehicle is parked in an Edina driveway or sitting at a cabin on Lake Mille Lacs, we handle transport at no cost.
Minnesota vehicle title transfers go through the Driver and Vehicle Services (DVS) division of the Minnesota Department of Public Safety. After pickup, you'll follow the state's standard report-of-sale process to release liability — DVS provides the appropriate form and we'll guide you through it at scheduling. The donation is tax-deductible to Salute Veterans Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. To start, call 1-888-324-2772 or use the donation form on this page.

Minnesota's lake culture and agriculture shape the donation mix. Boats — from the Iron Range chain to the metro chain of lakes and the North Woods — come in alongside pickups, motorcycles, RVs, and classic cars from Twin Cities collectors. Tractors, farm equipment, dump trailers, and utility trailers arrive from the southern Minnesota corn belt. Semi-trucks come in from I-35 and I-94 freight corridors. Free pickup is coordinated statewide, from Bemidji to Rochester and Duluth to Marshall. Salute Veterans Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.
