Towing and pickup in Livingston
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 Livingston 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.
Texas title and paperwork rules
Complete the Texas title assignment and applicable title-transfer paperwork; check the process with TxDMV or the county tax office.
For a lost Texas title, request a certified copy using VTR-34. A bonded-title process is for certain ownership-document problems, not the default replacement for every lost title. A recycler-only exception needs its own eligibility and documentation check.
If a lien is recorded, contact the lienholder about the title and a lien release. A sale or scrap pickup does not erase an outstanding loan.
Remove your plates and registration sticker; ask TxDMV about an eligible plate transfer.
File a Vehicle Transfer Notification with TxDMV and keep the receipt and signed sale documents. This updates the record; it is not a blanket guarantee against liability.

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