When you are ready to purchase a used vehicle at Auto Outlets USA, trading in your own vehicle is convenient because you can simply leave with your new vehicle. Trading in your vehicle not only lowers your monthly payments, but it does also lower the amount that is taxed. If you want to get the best value for your trade-in, here is what you should know before trading in your car.

Cleaning: 

When assessing your vehicle's value, it is mostly based on the year, make, model, and condition of your vehicle. Cleaning up your vehicle will increase its appeal and make the trade-in process easier. We recommend getting some garbage bags for trash and a tote for things you will keep. Vacuum the carpet and seats and give any hard surfaces a good wipe down. You can always clean the exterior at home or bring it to a car wash, many car washes in the Finger Lakes, NY region have free vacuums that you can use. 

 

Documents: 

Gather your vehicle’s documents such as title, registration, and your driver's license. If you have a paid-off vehicle, make sure you bring in the signed lien release from the bank that you financed your vehicle. 

 

Drive Your Vehicle: 

Your vehicle may need some things such as brakes, tires or it has a check engine light on. Take your vehicle on a test drive and take any notes on what it needs. We’ll definitely take it in on trade-in, but take that into consideration when you are valuing your vehicle.

 

Bring The Accessories: 

If the vehicle has any original accessories, for example, If your vehicle such as a Jeep Wrangler originally came with a hardtop. Bring that with you when you trade your vehicle in. As well as any spare keys or remotes.
