Midwest region scrap market — updated October 2026. In the Midwest, dense steel-mill and shredder capacity across the Great Lakes keeps ferrous bids strong.
VehicleRunningNot runningWrecked
Compact$225–$1,100$175–$800$125–$575
Sedan$275–$1,275$200–$950$150–$675

Van / minivan$525–$2,350$400–$1,750$275–$1,250

What sets your ND offer

  • Scrap steel prices: ~$195/ton in the Midwest region right now; dense steel-mill and shredder capacity across the Great Lakes keeps ferrous bids strong.
  • Vehicle weight: heavier trucks and SUVs carry more metal.
  • Year, make and model: parts demand is higher for common, newer models.
  • Condition: whether it runs, and whether the engine, transmission and catalytic converter are intact.
  • Title status: a clean title in your name is part of how the offer is set.
  • Location: metro offers in ND often run higher than rural ones because tow distances are shorter.

Selling a junk car in North Dakota: title & DMV rules

North Dakota requires a title in your name to transfer a junk vehicle, including a scrap sale from a North Dakota driveway.

If the title is missing
North Dakota 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 North Dakota DOT Motor Vehicle issues a title you can sign over. The duplicate-title paperwork in North Dakota is SFN 18609 (Application for Certificate of Title).
License plates
Remove the plates and keep them for transfer.
Notice of sale / release of liability
North Dakota has no seller notice form; keep the signed title and bill of sale.
What North Dakota salvage buyers must do
North Dakota uses SFN 18609 for title applications and duplicates through the DOT Motor Vehicle division. Winter weather drives tow scheduling as much as paperwork does — a car frozen in place still gets winched, but mention it when you book the pickup.
  • Sign the seller assignment on the title
  • Complete the odometer disclosure
  • Handle plates as ND requires
  • File the notice of sale, then cancel insurance

For the full walkthrough — paperwork, no-title options, and current ND payout ranges — read our guide to selling a junk car in North Dakota.
