Does anyone know what these people do to your vehicle after you donate it to them? do they sell it? or trash it? what exactly happens after the donation takes place?

They sometimes auction them off but more often than not they are given to a family in need. That is what the Salvation Army is all about...GIVING. and good for you for helping one of the best non profit organizations in the United States. It's not true that it will end up on a sales lot somewhere.

Your better off to go to the salvation Army and ask if they know of someone that could use a car.
Possibly there is a family that could really use a car.
I am sure there is someone near you that would really appriciate it.
If you donate it - it will end up in some dealers lot for sale.
Not that the Salvation Army would do this, but they are not really equiped for this type of service.
I would ask around at
Employment offise
social security building
and even a day labor type place.

They typically auction them off (many times for spare parts or to a junk yard). You will get a tax receipt based on what they are able to sell it for so you can take a tax deduction based on their proceeds.
They then use the proceeds for the services they provide.
