Common Questions About Selling Your Car in Louisiana

Q: Do I need to return my Louisiana license plates after selling my car?
A: Yes, Louisiana law requires you to remove and return your license plates to the Office of Motor Vehicles within 10 days after selling your vehicle to avoid fines. We recommend doing this promptly to avoid any liability after the sale.

Q: Can I sell a car with a salvage title in Louisiana?
A: Yes, we buy vehicles with salvage titles. Louisiana has unique salvage registration rules, but we handle all necessary paperwork so you don’t have to worry about getting stuck with complicated state filings.

Q: Will you pick up a vehicle from a gated community or restricted-access neighborhood?
A: Yes, we regularly arrange pickups in gated or restricted areas across Louisiana’s parishes. Just provide access instructions when booking the pickup and we coordinate with security or property managers if needed.

Q: Are flood-damaged cars from Louisiana’s coastal parishes accepted?
A: Yes, we buy flood-damaged vehicles, which are common in Louisiana due to hurricanes and heavy rains. While flood damage can reduce the offer, we pay fair market value and provide free towing statewide.

Q: How does Louisiana’s vehicle inspection requirement affect selling my car to you?
A: Since Louisiana requires annual safety inspections in some parishes, you don’t need a current inspection to sell your vehicle to us. We buy any vehicle “as-is,” regardless of inspection status.

Q: Can I sell a vehicle that has been sitting unused for years in a parish with strict abandoned vehicle codes?
A: Yes, we specialize in buying vehicles that have been sitting for long periods, even in parishes with tight abandoned vehicle laws. We help remove old junk cars quickly and legally, so you don’t face fines.

Q: Will modifications like lifted suspensions or custom rims affect my offer in Louisiana?
A: Yes, modifications common in Louisiana, like lifted trucks or custom rims, can affect your offer. Some add value, others reduce it depending on condition and market demand, but we evaluate all modifications fairly.

Q: Do you buy vehicles with expired Louisiana registrations or titles?
A: Yes, as long as you can provide proof of ownership, we buy vehicles regardless of expired registration or title status, which is helpful in Louisiana where renewal is sometimes overlooked.

Q: Can I sell a car that’s registered in a different Louisiana parish than where I live?
A: Yes, you can sell a car registered in any Louisiana parish regardless of your current residence. We serve all parishes and make transfers easy no matter your location.

Q: How soon can you tow my vehicle after I accept an offer in Louisiana?
A: Typically, we pick up vehicles within a few days across Louisiana, and often same-day, especially in more populated parishes. We coordinate pickup at your convenience to make it hassle-free.

Q: Do you buy work trucks or fleet vehicles commonly used in Louisiana industries like fishing or oil?
A: Yes, we buy fleet vehicles and work trucks frequently used in Louisiana’s oil, fishing, and agriculture sectors. We understand their unique wear and offer competitive cash prices.

How To Sign Your Louisiana Vehicle Title

When selling a car in Louisiana, signing the vehicle title correctly is essential to complete the transfer of ownership. The process involves carefully filling out specific sections on the title to ensure the buyer can register the vehicle in their name. We guide you through each step of signing the title, so the sale goes smoothly and follows state rules.

  1. Locate the “Seller’s Certification” section on the back of the Louisiana vehicle title.
  2. Print your name exactly as it appears on the front of the title in the designated space.
  3. Sign your full legal name on the signature line in the “Seller’s Certification” area.
  4. Write the date of the sale next to your signature using the MM/DD/YYYY format.
  5. If there is a section for the odometer reading, enter the vehicle’s current mileage accurately.
  6. If you have a lienholder listed, make sure to obtain their release or signature, if required.
  7. Give the completed title to the buyer after signing, along with any other required documents.

How To Turn in Your Louisiana License Plates

In Louisiana, when you sell a vehicle, the license plates stay with the seller. You must remove the plates from the sold vehicle and turn them in to the Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles (OMV) if you do not transfer them to another vehicle you own. This process ensures you do not continue to be responsible for the vehicle. Follow the steps below to complete the license plate return properly.

  1. Remove the license plates from the vehicle before completing the sale.
  2. Do not leave the plates on the vehicle when handing it to the buyer.
  3. Take the license plates to your local OMV office or a designated license plate drop-off location.
  4. Submit the license plates to an OMV agent or place them in the official return box if available.
  5. Obtain a receipt or confirmation of plate return from the OMV for your records.
  6. If you plan to keep the plates, visit the OMV to transfer them to another vehicle you own.
  7. Notify the OMV about the sale by submitting the Notice of Vehicle Sale online or at an OMV office.

To get a duplicate vehicle title in Louisiana, you must be the vehicle owner or have legal authority. You need your vehicle information and ID. The vehicle must be registered in Louisiana.
