Common Questions About Selling Your Car in Minnesota

Q: Do you buy cars that have been sitting outside in Minnesota winters for years?
A: Yes, we buy vehicles that have been sitting outdoors through harsh Minnesota winters. Salt and freezing conditions can cause rust and wear, but we still provide fair offers and free towing across all Minnesota counties.

Q: Can I sell a vehicle that has a Minnesota salvage title?
A: Yes, we accept cars with salvage titles from Minnesota. These vehicles often qualify for cash offers because we understand the local market and can handle all paperwork to keep the sale smooth.

Q: Do I need to return my Minnesota license plates after selling my car to you?
A: No, Minnesota law requires you to remove and return your plates to a Driver and Vehicle Services (DVS) office after selling your car, but since we offer instant purchases, we remind sellers to complete this step to avoid future registration fees or liability.

Q: Will you pick up a junk vehicle stuck in a rural driveway located in a Minnesota county with heavy snow?
A: Yes, we offer free towing and will pick up vehicles regardless of location, even in challenging rural areas across Minnesota’s counties. If snow or road conditions cause delays, we coordinate pickup times to usually occur within a few days or sooner if possible.

Q: Does the mileage on a vehicle impact your cash offer in Minnesota?
A: Yes, mileage affects our offers, especially for vehicles registered in Minnesota counties with high annual mileage averages. Lower mileage often means higher value, but we consider overall condition and local demand as well.

Q: Can I sell a car without keys or if it’s locked inside my Minnesota garage?
A: Absolutely, we buy cars without keys and handle locked vehicles, even if they are stuck in garages or fenced yards anywhere in Minnesota. Our tow drivers are experienced at safely retrieving vehicles under those conditions.

Q: Are there restrictions on selling a car that is still registered in Minnesota?
A: No, you can sell a car even if it is currently registered in Minnesota. We help guide you through the process to ensure the transfer complies with Minnesota DVS regulations for a smooth transaction.

Q: Do you buy cars with major rust damage common in Minnesota’s lake regions?
A: Yes, Minnesota’s humidity and road salt cause rust in many vehicles, especially near lakes. We buy cars with significant rust or frame issues and offer free towing throughout all Minnesota counties.

Q: How soon can you pick up my vehicle if I live in a densely populated Minnesota county?
A: Pickup is usually within a few days and sometimes same-day, even in busy Minnesota counties. We prioritize scheduling based on your location and vehicle condition to provide timely service.

Q: Will modifications like winter tires or plow attachments increase my vehicle’s value when selling to you?
A: Modifications such as winter tires or plow attachments common in Minnesota can positively impact offers if they are in good condition and add utility, but aftermarket changes that compromise reliability may lower the offer.

Q: Can I sell a car without a valid Minnesota emissions test?
A: Yes, Minnesota does not require emissions testing for many vehicles outside the Twin Cities metro area or for older cars, so lack of a current test doesn’t prevent a sale to us. We still provide instant offers regardless.

Q: Do you buy fleet or government vehicles used in Minnesota?
A: Yes, we purchase fleet and government vehicles from all Minnesota counties, including those used for municipal or state work, ensuring proper documentation and a hassle-free process.

How To Sign Your Minnesota Vehicle Title

Selling a car in Minnesota requires properly signing the vehicle title to transfer ownership. The title is a legal document that proves who owns the vehicle. To complete the sale, we must sign the title carefully in the right places. This ensures a smooth transfer of ownership to the buyer and helps avoid any confusion or delays with the state. Here is the exact way we sign a Minnesota vehicle title when selling a car.

  1. Locate the “Assignment of Title” section on the back of the title document.
  2. Fill in the date of the sale in the space provided.
  3. Write the buyer’s full name in the buyer information area exactly as it appears on their ID.
  4. Enter the sale price of the vehicle in the correct box.
  5. Sign your name exactly as it appears on the front of the title. This is the seller’s signature.
  6. If the vehicle has more than one owner, ensure all owners sign the title.
  7. Print your name and address clearly as the seller where requested.
  8. Complete any odometer disclosure statements if the vehicle is less than 10 years old.
  9. Give the signed title directly to the buyer for their use in registering the vehicle.

How To Turn in Your Minnesota License Plates

In Minnesota, when you sell a car, you must remove your license plates. The plates do not stay with the vehicle. You can transfer your plates to another vehicle you own, or you must return them to the Minnesota Department of Public Safety. This rule helps prevent misuse of your plates after the sale. We will walk you through the steps to follow after selling your car.

  1. Remove the license plates from the vehicle you sold immediately.
  2. If you have another vehicle in your name, transfer the plates to that vehicle by completing a transfer form.
  3. If you do not want to transfer the plates, take them to any Deputy Registrar License Center or mail them to the Minnesota Department of Public Safety.
  4. Include a note with your name, address, and vehicle identification number (VIN) when mailing the plates.
  5. If you mail your plates, send them to: Minnesota Department of Public Safety, Driver and Vehicle Services, 445 Minnesota Street, Saint Paul, MN 55101-5184.
  6. Keep a record of your plate return or transfer for your files.
  7. Notify your insurance company about the sale and the removal of the plates.

How To Get a Duplicate Minnesota Vehicle Title

To get a duplicate vehicle title in Minnesota, you must be the registered owner or have legal authority to request the title. You need the vehicle’s information, including the make, model, year, and vehicle identification number (VIN). If there are liens, you must provide lienholder details. We handle the process as the registered owner or an authorized agent.

  1. Go to the Minnesota Department of Public Safety website and download the Application for Duplicate Title form (PS2000).
  2. Fill out the form completely with accurate vehicle and owner details.
  3. Sign the form in the presence of a notary public, as notarization is required.
  4. Prepare payment for the duplicate title fee, which is currently $11.
  5. Mail the completed form, notarized signature, and payment to the address on the form: Driver and Vehicle Services, 445 Minnesota Street, Suite 190, St. Paul, MN 55101-5170.
  6. Wait for the Minnesota DMV to process your application. It usually takes about 10 business days.
  7. Receive the duplicate title by mail at your address on record.
