DO I NEED A RECEIPT WHEN I SELL MY CAR TO A JUNKYARD
Anytime you sell your car, even if it is to a scrap yard, you need to collect proof. Without that proof of sale you could be held liable for tickets or accidents that happen in the vehicle after you have sold it.
Many states have a release of liability form attached to your title. If you state has this form be sure you fill it out, tear it off and mail it in right away to your state DMV office. Nothing is worse than selling your junk car only to find out later that you owe parking tickets AFTER selling your car.

If you are selling your car without a title be sure to get written proof that you have sold your car. In the unlikely event that your car does rack up fees after you sold it, you can use the receipt to force the towing company to cover your costs.
Selling your junk car is usually very easy, but like any transaction you have to protect yourself and get the proper paperwork.
