Selling a junk car in South Carolina: title & DMV rules
South Carolina requires a title in your name to transfer a junk vehicle, including a scrap sale from a Summerville driveway.
- If the title is missing
- South Carolina 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 SCDMV issues a title you can sign over. The duplicate-title paperwork in South Carolina is Form 400 (Application for Certificate of Title and Registration).
- License plates
- Remove the plate and return it to the SCDMV if you're not transferring it.
- Notice of sale / release of liability
- Notify the SCDMV of the sale so property tax and registration stop in your name.
- What South Carolina salvage buyers must do
- South Carolina uses Form 400 for title applications and duplicates. Secured-party and lien entries must be cleared before transfer. A bonded title handles vehicles with no usable ownership record; licensed scrap buyers report VINs when they take a car in.
- Sign the seller assignment on the title
- Complete the odometer disclosure
- Handle plates as SC requires
- File the notice of sale, then cancel insurance
For the full walkthrough — paperwork, no-title options, and current SC payout ranges — read our guide to selling a junk car in South Carolina.
Rules change — confirm current forms and filing windows with the SCDMV.
