• Always have the title and keys ready to go before you post it for sale. That guarantees the transaction will go more smoothly.
• If your title needs a notary as all Arizona titles do, your local bank, some mail stores or your local DMV will gladly assist you in doing so. (Please keep it in a safe location for once it is signed and notarized because that is a legal, open title).
• Never except personal checks. Do NOT provide the title to the new owner until the cash has been transferred.
• Look for the many security features in the bills. There are many counterfeit bills out there, so be careful. 888JUNKCARS.COM recommends doing the transaction at a bank just to verify funds.
• Always try to be in well lighted area or public place. If you choose not to provide a home address, still bring another person with you, just for safety.
• Always take your license plate from your vehicle. Never leave it on for any reason. You may print a temporary plate at www.servicearizona.com for a simple fee of $1 for a three day restricted permit.
