Selling a junk car in Massachusetts: title & DMV rules
Massachusetts requires a title in your name to transfer a junk vehicle, including a scrap sale from a Northampton driveway.
- If the title is missing
- Massachusetts does not normally require a bonded title for a junk sale. A duplicate title (Application for Duplicate Certificate of Title) or, for scrap-only sales, a licensed-recycler affidavit is the usual route. The duplicate-title paperwork in Massachusetts is Application for Duplicate Certificate of Title.
- License plates
- Remove the plates and cancel the registration with the Massachusetts RMV — plates must be returned or cancelled online.
- Notice of sale / release of liability
- Cancel your registration through RMV Online and keep the confirmation with the bill of sale.
- What Massachusetts salvage buyers must do
- Massachusetts does not title the oldest model years, so many junk cars transfer on a bill of sale and registration. For titled vehicles, request a duplicate from the RMV. Cancel the registration and the insurance once the car has physically left — Massachusetts links the two.
- Sign the seller assignment on the title
- Complete the odometer disclosure
- Handle plates as MA requires
- File the notice of sale, then cancel insurance
For the full walkthrough — paperwork, no-title options, and current MA payout ranges — read our guide to selling a junk car in Massachusetts.
Rules change — confirm current forms and filing windows with the Massachusetts RMV.
