Selling a junk car in Mississippi: title & DMV rules
Mississippi requires a title in your name to transfer a junk vehicle, including a scrap sale from a Southaven driveway.
- If the title is missing
- Mississippi 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 Mississippi Department of Revenue issues a title you can sign over. The duplicate-title paperwork in Mississippi is Form 78-006 (Application for Replacement Title).
- License plates
- Remove the plate; Mississippi tags stay with the owner.
- Notice of sale / release of liability
- Keep the signed title and bill of sale and cancel insurance after the tow.
- What Mississippi salvage buyers must do
- Mississippi titles the newer model years and treats the oldest vehicles as title-exempt, so check your model year first. Replacement titles come from the Department of Revenue on Form 78-006; a bonded title covers a broken ownership chain.
- Sign the seller assignment on the title
- Complete the odometer disclosure
- Handle plates as MS requires
- File the notice of sale, then cancel insurance
