Selling a junk car in Maryland: title & DMV rules
Maryland requires a title in your name to transfer a junk vehicle, including a scrap sale from a Gaithersburg driveway.
- If the title is missing
- Maryland 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 Maryland MVA issues a title you can sign over. The duplicate-title paperwork in Maryland is VR-018 (Application for Duplicate Certificate of Title).
- License plates
- Remove the plates and return them to the Maryland MVA — returning tags is required to cancel the registration.
- Notice of sale / release of liability
- Keep the MVA tag-return receipt with your bill of sale, then cancel insurance.
- What Maryland salvage buyers must do
- Maryland duplicates are requested on VR-018. Maryland is strict about plate return — the MVA expects plates back, and an unreturned plate can hold up your registration record. Licensed scrap processors report VINs when they take a vehicle for recycling.
- Sign the seller assignment on the title
- Complete the odometer disclosure
- Handle plates as MD requires
- File the notice of sale, then cancel insurance
