Before You Trade
Before we get into actually trading in your vehicle, we should first go over some of the preparations you may want to take before the big day. This will help make sure you and your trade-in are as ready as can be. Some of the important things you should do beforehand are:
- Research. It’s a good idea to know what to expect when trading in a car. This article is a good place to start. However, you should also do some research on your trade-in and its current value. We can help you do just that right here on our website, with our Value Your Trade tool!
- Gather Your Paperwork. Service receipts, original sales paperwork, and any other documentation on your vehicle will help to prove it’s in good shape. Locate and gather what you can before the day of your trade-in.
- Clean It Up. First impressions are important, which is also true when trading in a vehicle. To make sure you’re putting your best foot—or tire—forward, be sure to give the cabin a once over to clear out any clutter. A trip to the carwash to really make the car shine is also a good idea
Once you’ve taken care of these steps and you feel confident in your trade-in, it’s time to contact the dealership!
Trading In
First, you’ll want to speak with the dealership to set up a date and a time for your trade-in. When you arrive for your appointment, your vehicle will be assessed by an appraiser. This can take the form of an inspection, a test drive, and even obtaining a vehicle history report.
