Get Cash for Your Junk Car in Arkansas

Sign the back of the title where indicated for the seller. Include the date of sale, sale price, and odometer reading. Both you and the buyer must sign. Give the signed title to the buyer, who takes it to their local revenue office to complete the transfer and pay the sales tax. The buyer has 30 days to transfer the title into their name.

You need a title to legally transfer ownership in Arkansas. If you've lost yours, you can apply for a duplicate title at your local revenue office. The fee is $10. You'll need to provide identification and proof of ownership. Processing typically takes a few days. Licensed dealers like Clunqr can sometimes work with alternative documentation.

No. Arkansas has no mandatory safety inspections and no emissions testing anywhere in the state. You can sell a car in any condition without worrying about inspections. This makes Arkansas one of the easiest states for selling a vehicle.

In Arkansas, license plates belong to the owner, not the vehicle. Remove your plates before handing over the car. You can transfer them to another vehicle you own at your local revenue office, or surrender them if you no longer need them. Don't let the buyer drive away with your plates.

It depends on the vehicle's year, make, and model, condition, resale or salvage value, weight, and current scrap metal prices. Arkansas has a solid network of salvage yards, metal recyclers, and car buyers, which helps keep prices competitive. Most junk cars sell for $200 to $1,500, while vehicles with valuable parts or those that still drive can sell for up to $5,000. Get an instant quote from Clunqr to see your car's actual value.

The buyer has 30 days from the date of sale to transfer the title into their name at a local revenue office. As the seller, keep a copy of the signed title and bill of sale in case the buyer doesn't complete the transfer promptly. This protects you if any issues arise with the vehicle after the sale.
