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 New York: title & DMV rules
New York exempts vehicles model year 1972 and older from titling, so an older Schenectady car can often be sold on a bill of sale alone. Anything newer needs a title in your name.
- If the title is missing
- New York does not normally require a bonded title for a junk sale. A duplicate title (MV-37 (Statement of Ownership) + MV-902 (Duplicate Title)) or, for scrap-only sales, a licensed-recycler affidavit is the usual route. The duplicate-title paperwork in New York is MV-37 (Statement of Ownership) + MV-902 (Duplicate Title).
- License plates
- Remove the plates and return them to the New York State DMV — surrendering plates protects you from insurance-lapse fines.
- Notice of sale / release of liability
- Keep the DMV plate-surrender receipt (FS-6T) with your bill of sale.
- What New York salvage buyers must do
- New York lets owners transfer vehicles model year 1972 and older with a notarized Bill of Sale (MV-50) — no title required. Newer vehicles need a duplicate via MV-902 before a private sale.
- Sign the seller assignment on the title
- Complete the odometer disclosure
- Handle plates as NY requires
- File the notice of sale, then cancel insurance

Rules change — confirm current forms and filing windows with the New York State DMV.
