Overview

Yes, but there are rules:

  • The registered owner must drop off the vehicle, and payment must go to them.

  • If you’re acting on the owner’s behalf, you’ll need a notarized Power of Attorney (POA) allowing you to sell the car for them.

💡 A Bidbus rep is always available by text or email to explain how ownership and POA requirements work. Don’t forget to save our contact.

In short

You can only sell if the registered owner is involved or you have a notarized POA. Payment always goes to the registered owner.
