Towing and pickup in Juneau
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 Juneau 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.
Alaska title and paperwork rules
Juneau sellers follow Alaska state law, and the agency of record is Alaska DMV. 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 812 (Application for Title & Registration). Alaska 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 Alaska DMV issues a title you can sign over.
Plates: Remove the plates; Alaska plates belong to the owner and may be transferred.
Reporting the sale: File a notice of transfer with the Alaska DMV so the record no longer shows the car in your name. That filing is what ends your liability for the vehicle — do it even though the car is already gone.
No title? What Juneau sellers can do
Alaska handles replacement titles through Form 812 at any DMV office, and mail turnaround to remote communities is slow — start the paperwork before you schedule a tow. Licensed dismantlers can usually take a scrap-only vehicle with ID and a bill of sale; confirm the current standard with the DMV.
Licensed AK 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 812 (Application for Title & Registration).
Form numbers, fees, and year cutoffs change, so verify the current process with Alaska DMV before you commit. We deliberately don't state a AK legal requirement more precisely than we can stand behind.

Juneau seller checklist
Title in your name or your Alaska DMV 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 Alaska rules.
A written offer with pickup and payment terms confirmed, a signed bill of sale you keep, your Alaska sale notice filed afterwards, and insurance cancelled only once the car has physically left.
