Arizona title transfer rules
In Arizona, a clean title is the simplest junk-car sale: sign the back of the title, hand it to the buyer at pickup, remove the license plates, and return the plates to the Arizona DMV.
Selling without a title in Arizona
In Arizona, selling a car without a title is allowed in limited situations — typically when the vehicle is going to a licensed dismantler or scrap processor. You'll usually need a valid photo ID, current registration, and a signed bill of sale. Arizona DMV rules vary by county; we'll confirm exactly what's required when you accept your offer.
Average scrap prices in Arizona
Arizona scrap-metal pricing drives the base of every junk car offer. Sedans typically pay $250–$1,400, SUVs $400–$2,400, and full-size pickups $700–$4,500. Trucks and SUVs almost always outpay sedans because of their heavier curb weight and stronger parts demand.
