Selling a junk car in North Dakota: title & DMV rules
North Dakota requires a title in your name to transfer a junk vehicle, including a scrap sale from a Grand Forks driveway.
- If the title is missing
- North Dakota 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 North Dakota DOT Motor Vehicle issues a title you can sign over. The duplicate-title paperwork in North Dakota is SFN 18609 (Application for Certificate of Title).
- License plates
- Remove the plates and keep them for transfer.
- Notice of sale / release of liability
- North Dakota has no seller notice form; keep the signed title and bill of sale.
- What North Dakota salvage buyers must do
- North Dakota uses SFN 18609 for title applications and duplicates through the DOT Motor Vehicle division. Winter weather drives tow scheduling as much as paperwork does — a car frozen in place still gets winched, but mention it when you book the pickup.
- Sign the seller assignment on the title
- Complete the odometer disclosure
- Handle plates as ND requires
- File the notice of sale, then cancel insurance
