Selling a junk car in Idaho: title & DMV rules
Idaho requires a title in your name to transfer a junk vehicle, including a scrap sale from a Mountain Home driveway.
- If the title is missing
- Idaho 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 Idaho Transportation Department, DMV issues a title you can sign over. The duplicate-title paperwork in Idaho is ITD 3367 (Application for Duplicate Title).
- License plates
- Remove the plate and keep it for transfer.
- Notice of sale / release of liability
- Idaho has no seller notice form; keep the signed title assignment and bill of sale.
- What Idaho salvage buyers must do
- Idaho handles duplicate titles on ITD 3367 through county assessor motor vehicle offices. When ownership can't be documented, Idaho uses a bonded title. Licensed dismantlers can generally purchase a non-repairable vehicle with ID and a bill of sale.
- Sign the seller assignment on the title
- Complete the odometer disclosure
- Handle plates as ID requires
- File the notice of sale, then cancel insurance
