Selling a junk car in North Carolina: title & DMV rules

North Carolina requires a title in your name to transfer a junk vehicle, including a scrap sale from a Charlotte driveway.

If the title is missing: North Carolina 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 NC DMV issues a title you can sign over. The duplicate-title paperwork in North Carolina is MVR-4 (Duplicate Title) / MVR-46G (Affidavit).
License plates: Remove the plate and surrender it to the NC DMV — North Carolina requires plate surrender before you cancel insurance.
Notice of sale / release of liability: Keep the DMV surrender receipt; junk buyers must also report the VIN to the DMV.
What North Carolina salvage buyers must do: North Carolina requires a duplicate title (MVR-4) or a Bonded Title for vehicles with no proof of ownership. Junk yards must report VINs to the DMV within 72 hours of purchase.
