What we see in this class

How pickup works

Pickup for ATVs, UTVs, and side-by-sides is straightforward and hassle-free. Many vehicles in this category may not have a title, especially if they are off-road-only types. In such cases, a Manufacturer's Statement of Origin (MSO) or a bill of sale will suffice. Our team will coordinate pickup using a small flatbed truck or trailer, ensuring your vehicle is safely transported from your location. Whether your vehicle is parked at a ranch, farm, or hunting cabin, we work with you to set a convenient time for collection.

What drives donation value

The value of your donated ATV or UTV is influenced by several factors. Notably, for 4-stroke ATVs, the number of hours ridden can often be more indicative of value than mileage. Popular models like the Polaris RZR and Can-Am UTVs tend to command strong market prices due to their demand. Well-maintained equipment accompanied by service records tends to fetch higher appraisals. While dings and cosmetic wear may lead to discounts, a vehicle that runs well can still command a premium, and even non-running units can hold parts value.

Documentation you need

Fort Lauderdale specifics

In Fort Lauderdale and throughout Florida, regulations for off-road vehicles can differ from standard cars. Many ATVs and UTVs are not titled for on-road use, which means a bill of sale or MSO can often suffice. Local DMV rules are friendly to off-road enthusiasts, allowing for flexible documentation that eases the donation process. Whether your vehicle is state-titled or simply documented through a bill of sale, Cruise for Cause is here to navigate the specifics.
