Towing and pickup in Muskegon
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 Muskegon 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.
Michigan title and paperwork rules
Sign the Michigan title over to the buyer and complete the odometer disclosure where it applies.
If the Michigan title is lost, request a duplicate from a Secretary of State office before the sale; ask about accepted ownership documents for a scrap-only sale.
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 Michigan plate; plates stay with the owner.
Keep the signed title and bill of sale and confirm with the Secretary of State how to close the record in your name.

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