Paid moving company to pickup items to drop to goodwill. Is the rental cost tax deductible? if so exactly what section and line?

I rented a truck from Two Men And A Truck Moving Company in 2024 for the purpose of picking up items in my home and dropping them off to Goodwill Donation Center. The rental fee was almost $600. Is that rental fee tax deductible? If so, can you state exactly where it goes on the IRS tax form?  thank you,

Yes, that could be deductible as a charitable contribution if the organization you donated it to is a 501(c)(3).  Ideally, you would get a receipt from the organization for the amount of the rental.

 

If you enter total non-cash donations of over 5K, you'll need an appraisal, a signed receipt and you'll need to mail your return.

 

Here's info on Expenses for Charitable Donation and more details on Charitable Donations.
