Can I Sell a Junk Car Without a Title?
Yes, you can sell a junk car without a title in many states as long as you can prove ownership. Accepted documents typically include a valid registration, bill of sale, or insurance paperwork in your name. However, some states require a title without exception. Contact us to check the rules in your area.

Should I Get a Duplicate Title?
Getting a duplicate title can increase your car’s value by 25–40%. If your car is worth over $500, spending $25–$60 on a title could add $200 or more to your offer.
Example: A seller in Ohio received a $300 offer without a title. After obtaining a duplicate for $33, they sold the car for $600.
How Much Do We Pay for Junk Cars Without a Title?
Cars without titles are usually worth less because buyers must take on extra paperwork and risk. Here’s what you can typically expect:
- Junk car with title: $500 – $1,500+
- Junk car without title: $300 – $1,000
We pay the most possible for no-title junk cars depending on their condition, size, parts value, and location.
