Towing and pickup in Gulfport
The car does not need to run to request an offer. Describe whether it starts, rolls or steers, and confirm the pickup arrangements when you accept.
Pickup in Gulfport is arranged after you accept an offer; timing depends on local tow-operator availability.
Tell us where the car actually sits before the truck rolls. Describe tight access, low clearance, fences or other obstacles so the pickup team can assess access. Confirm who needs to be present and which documents to bring.
Mississippi title and paperwork rules
Gulfport sellers follow Mississippi state law, and the agency of record is Mississippi Department of Revenue. The clean route is a title in your name: sign it at pickup, never hand over a title with the buyer's section left blank, and photograph it before it changes hands.
Replacing a lost title: Form 78-006 (Application for Replacement Title). Mississippi uses a bonded (surety) title when the chain of ownership is broken: you post a surety bond — typically 1.5× the vehicle's appraised value — and the Mississippi Department of Revenue issues a title you can sign over.
Plates: Remove the plate; Mississippi tags stay with the owner.
Reporting the sale: Keep the signed title and bill of sale and cancel insurance after the tow. That filing is what ends your liability for the vehicle — do it even though the car is already gone.
No title? What Gulfport sellers can do
Mississippi titles the newer model years and treats the oldest vehicles as title-exempt, so check your model year first. Replacement titles come from the Department of Revenue on Form 78-006; a bonded title covers a broken ownership chain.
Licensed MS salvage buyers and dismantlers can generally purchase a vehicle for recycling with less than a full title, provided you present ID and the right documentation — typically starting with the Form 78-006 (Application for Replacement Title).
Form numbers, fees, and year cutoffs change, so verify the current process with Mississippi Department of Revenue before you commit. We deliberately don't state a MS legal requirement more precisely than we can stand behind.

Gulfport seller checklist
Title in your name or your Mississippi Department of Revenue replacement paperwork under way, photo ID, and a lien release if the car was ever financed.
Car emptied — glovebox, console, trunk, under the seats, spare-tire well — a photo of the VIN and odometer, and plates handled per Mississippi rules.
A written offer with pickup and payment terms confirmed, a signed bill of sale you keep, your Mississippi sale notice filed afterwards, and insurance cancelled only once the car has physically left.
