Donating an item from Ottawa?
Charitable donation valuations are a different assignment from insurance or resale work: they use fair-market-value concepts, and the receiving organization and your tax adviser set the documentation requirements. Some contributions require a federal qualified appraisal, which is a specific instrument with its own signer and inspection rules — confirm what yours needs before commissioning any report.
See Appraisily’s donation appraisal report and what it covers for the online option, or contact an Ottawa appraiser from the listings below when an in-person inspection or specific credentials are required.
