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 Louisiana: title & DMV rules
Louisiana requires a title in your name to transfer a junk vehicle, including a scrap sale from a Opelousas driveway.
- If the title is missing
- Louisiana 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 Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles issues a title you can sign over. The duplicate-title paperwork in Louisiana is DPSMV 1799 (Vehicle Application).
- License plates
- Remove the plate — Louisiana plates stay with the owner.
- Notice of sale / release of liability
- Keep the notarized bill of sale; Louisiana requires notarization on most transfers rather than a notice form.
- What Louisiana salvage buyers must do
- Louisiana uses the DPSMV 1799 vehicle application for duplicates and transfers, and notarization is common on Louisiana vehicle documents. Licensed salvage and scrap buyers report purchases; a bonded title covers vehicles with no usable ownership record.
- Sign the seller assignment on the title
- Complete the odometer disclosure
- Handle plates as LA requires
- File the notice of sale, then cancel insurance
For the full walkthrough — paperwork, no-title options, and current LA payout ranges — read our guide to selling a junk car in Louisiana.
Rules change — confirm current forms and filing windows with the Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles.
