Make Sure You Prep

Make sure you’re on the ball and prepared; have everything you’ll need ready before the day comes to sell your truck.

• Get a high instant cash offer from us first!
• The law in Texas mandates insurance is current at the time you sell your truck.
• Insuring the truck for the first 30-days after it’s sold is the seller’s responsibility – do NOT forget to speak with your insurance carrier about setting a termination date.
• The title is needed
• Is the title lost? Then must fill out and turn in the Form VTR-34 Application for a Certified Copy of Title, to your local DMV or online via the Texas DMV's website.

Transferring the Title Over

Now that a little paperwork is done, there’s more paperwork. In Texas, the law mandates transferring a title over to a new owner within one month from the time of sale. Not doing this in the timeframe can result in the previous owner (you) being held accountable for toll violations, crimes committed with the truck, and any tickets the new owner may incur. Be proactive in keeping yourself out of any trouble and file a Texas Vehicle Transfer Notification – Form 130-U.

Now it’s title time. There will be a section for the owner (you) to sign the truck over to the new owner.

• In the required sections, fill out the date of sale, the sale price, and make sure the odometer reading is accurate.
• Once completed, signed, and you’ve got the money from the sale in your hands, turn the title over to the buyer.
• For added security, add a signed copy of Form 130-U into the mix.

Bill of Sale – It’s Optional

Know what’s not the law in Texas is just as important as what is. When it comes to a bill of sale the law doesn’t require you to provide the buyer with one, but if you do:

• don’t forget your contact info
• enter the VIN, make, model, and model year
• the truck’s ownership history
• the amount of purchase
• and signatures from the buyer and seller

How’s it done? From your recliner of course!
