Selling a junk car in Tennessee: title & DMV rules

Tennessee requires a title in your name to transfer a junk vehicle, including a scrap sale from a Nashville driveway.

If the title is missing: Tennessee 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 Tennessee Department of Revenue issues a title you can sign over. The duplicate-title paperwork in Tennessee is Application for Duplicate Certificate of Title.
License plates: Remove the plate — Tennessee plates stay with the owner.
Notice of sale / release of liability: Keep the signed title and bill of sale; cancel insurance after the tow.
What Tennessee salvage buyers must do: Tennessee titling runs through county clerks for the Department of Revenue. Duplicates are requested with ID and the VIN; where ownership can't be documented, Tennessee uses a bonded title. Scrap processors record the VIN of every vehicle they buy.

Handle plates as TN requires
