Repair Imperfections 

If you’re looking to trade-in your car, it’s essential to take care of any minor repairs you may have before the dealer gets a chance to see them. By identifying the imperfections and fixing them beforehand, you’ll increase the resale value of your vehicle. 

Clean Your Car Thoroughly 

A clean car is an important first step to trading it in. Make sure to thoroughly clean the inside and outside of your vehicle, including the dashboard and all surfaces. Next, make sure you have a spare tire and a full tank of gas. If you have any accessories such as roof rails or spoilers, remove those as well for simplicity’s sake. 

Gather All Important Documents 

The most important thing is to gather all the documents related to your car. This includes the original title and registration, as well as any receipts. Keep a log of when you last had your oil changed and have the wrench light looked at by a mechanic. It’s also important to have your car checked by a mechanic before trading it in, so potential buyers know exactly what they’re getting.
