Selling a junk car in Arizona: title & DMV rules
Arizona requires a title in your name to transfer a junk vehicle, including a scrap sale from a El Mirage driveway.
- If the title is missing
- Arizona 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 Arizona MVD issues a title you can sign over. The duplicate-title paperwork in Arizona is Form 96-0236 (Title and Registration Application).
- License plates
- Remove your plate — Arizona plates stay with you and can move to another vehicle.
- Notice of sale / release of liability
- Submit the Sold Notice through AZ MVD's ServiceArizona portal, generally within 10 days of the sale.
- What Arizona salvage buyers must do
- Arizona offers a Bonded Title program through MVD when proof of ownership is incomplete. Surety bond equals 1.5x the vehicle's value and is held for 3 years.
- Sign the seller assignment on the title
- Complete the odometer disclosure
- Handle plates as AZ requires
- File the notice of sale, then cancel insurance
