Selling a junk car in Nebraska: title & DMV rules
Nebraska requires a title in your name to transfer a junk vehicle, including a scrap sale from a Lincoln driveway.
- If the title is missing
- Nebraska 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 Nebraska DMV issues a title you can sign over. The duplicate-title paperwork in Nebraska is Application for Duplicate Certificate of Title.
- License plates
- Remove the plates — Nebraska plates stay with the owner.
- Notice of sale / release of liability
- Keep the assigned title and bill of sale; cancel registration with your county treasurer.
- What Nebraska salvage buyers must do
- Nebraska processes titles at county treasurer offices. Duplicates are straightforward with ID and the VIN; where no ownership document exists, Nebraska uses a bonded title. Licensed salvage dealers report the VINs of vehicles they take in.
- Sign the seller assignment on the title
- Complete the odometer disclosure
- Handle plates as NE requires
- File the notice of sale, then cancel insurance
