Can I sell a junk car without a title?
Yes — in most U.S. states you can sell a junk car with just your registration and a government-issued ID. JunkUrCar's buyer network is set up to handle no-title transactions in every state that allows them.
Even in stricter states, we can often help you request a duplicate title from the DMV or use a bill of sale, abandoned-vehicle process, or junk certificate.
What you'll need in place of a title
At minimum, you'll typically need your current registration, a photo ID matching the registration, and proof of insurance. Some states also require a notarized bill of sale.
Tell us about your situation when you get your offer and we'll let you know exactly what your state requires before pickup.
Top 10 states and title requirements
Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Georgia, Mississippi, Vermont, and many others allow no-title sales for older vehicles. California, New York, Florida, and Texas have stricter rules but we still purchase no-title vehicles there through alternative documentation.
When in doubt, get your free instant offer above — we'll guide you through whatever paperwork your state requires.
What about a salvage or junk certificate?
Many states issue a 'junk' or 'salvage' certificate in place of a title for vehicles that won't be roadworthy again. We buy cars with these certificates routinely.

Selling a junk car in California: title & DMV rules
California exempts vehicles model year 1980 and older from titling, so an older Oakdale car can often be sold on a bill of sale alone. Anything newer needs a title in your name.
- If the title is missing
- California does not normally require a bonded title for a junk sale. A duplicate title (REG 227 (Application for Duplicate or Paperless Title)) or, for scrap-only sales, a licensed-recycler affidavit is the usual route. The duplicate-title paperwork in California is REG 227 (Application for Duplicate or Paperless Title).
- License plates
- Leave the plates on the vehicle unless they are personalized — California plates stay with the car.
- Notice of sale / release of liability
- File a Notice of Transfer and Release of Liability (REG 138) with the DMV within 5 days — this is what ends your liability.
- What California salvage buyers must do
- California allows vehicles 1980 and older to be sold to a licensed dismantler without a title using a Bill of Sale plus a Statement of Facts (REG 256). Newer vehicles require a duplicate title (REG 227) before sale.
- Sign the seller assignment on the title
- Complete the odometer disclosure
- Handle plates as CA requires
- File the notice of sale, then cancel insurance
