Lest I be perceived as promoting a company I will not list vehicle donation brands here as I would want you to follow your own gut feel about this.

Some key pointers you will need:
When replacing windows in your home, you are most likely to pay $800 to have one window (double hung) installed. This is from some of the most expensive contractors. Which means you can try and get it cheaper but this is a normal fee for a custom window quality from top brands.
This price is likely to get worse if you have odd sized and old windows that all need to be replaced. You can get ready to pay even more per window.
A price to install about 8 windows can cost you something like $9000 but of course I have seen cheaper quotes.
