Selling a junk car in Rhode Island: title & DMV rules
Rhode Island requires a title in your name to transfer a junk vehicle, including a scrap sale from a Warwick driveway.
- If the title is missing
- Rhode Island 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 Rhode Island is Application for Duplicate Certificate of Title.
- License plates
- Remove the plates and return them to the Rhode Island DMV to cancel the registration.
- Notice of sale / release of liability
- Keep the DMV plate-return receipt with your bill of sale before cancelling insurance.
- What Rhode Island salvage buyers must do
- Rhode Island only titles the newer model years, so plenty of junk cars here transfer on a bill of sale and registration. For titled vehicles, request a duplicate from the DMV. Plates come back to the DMV, and short tow distances statewide keep offers competitive.
- Sign the seller assignment on the title
- Complete the odometer disclosure
- Handle plates as RI requires
- File the notice of sale, then cancel insurance
