Typically, when you sell your car, you’re required to transfer the title of the car to the buyer. But what if you’ve lost or misplaced the title? Can you sell your car without the title? Yes, you can. Melbourne Car Wreckers such as Car 4 Cash are in the business of buying junk or scrap cars for cash. Even if you don’t have the title to the vehicle, as long as you can prove ownership, we will buy the car from you.
What is The Title of a Car?
A car title is a legal document that provides proof of ownership of a vehicle. The title will contain important information such as the owner’s name, the VIN (Vehicle Identification Number), and such.
What to Do When You Don’t Have the Car Title?
In a private car sale, it is compulsory for you to transfer the title of the vehicle to the new owner. But if you choose to Sell Your Car to a Wrecker/recycler, then this is not necessary. If you don’t have the title of the vehicle, then you need to provide other documents such as the registration papers and your driver’s license to confirm ownership of the vehicle.
We need to confirm that you’re the legal owner of the vehicle. So, any relevant document that states that you’re the vehicle owner can be considered as proof. This is important as we will not accept stolen vehicles and hence need to establish vehicle ownership beyond doubt.
If you choose to sell your car to us, you will have to inform VicRoads about it. Remove the license plates from your car and hand them over at a VicRoads service centre, informing them that your car has been sold to a wrecker. They will update that information in their system so there’s a clear record of what happened with that vehicle.
If you don’t have the necessary documents to prove ownership of a vehicle, get in touch with us and we’ll help you find out alternative proof to establish ownership.
