Missing paperwork is one of the most common reasons people put off scrapping a car. In many cases, we can still help – here’s what usually works.

What we can usually work with
- A lost title when you’re the registered owner
- Estate situations with proof of executorship
- Out-of-province titles or older paperwork formats
What we may need from you
Usually just photo ID and something that ties you to the vehicle, like a registration or insurance document. Call us with your situation and we’ll tell you exactly what’s needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you buy a car with absolutely no title at all?
It depends on the situation. Give us a call and describe what documents you do have – we can often find a way to make it work in BC.
What if the car isn’t registered in my name?
We’ll need documentation showing your connection to the vehicle, such as an estate letter or bill of sale. We can walk you through the options over the phone.
How long does the paperwork process take?
Most straightforward cases are sorted out on the same call or with a quick document check. We try to keep it simple for you.
