Vehicle Trade-In Checklist

Trading in a vehicle is a great way to reduce the amount you need to finance a new vehicle—and the perks don’t end there. You’ll create the chance for another driver to fall in love with your vehicle and best of all, Miracle Nissan of Augusta makes the process easy.

If you’re considering trading in your vehicle in the Augusta, Forest Hills, and Martinez, Georgia, area, we’re here to help! With this handy vehicle trade-in checklist on your side, you can fully prepare and get the most for your set of wheels.

Getting Started: Before You Visit the Dealership

✓ Determine Trade-In Value: The first step to trading in your current vehicle is finding out how much it’s worth. To make this process simple, we have a handy Value Your Trade tool right here on our website. All you have to do is input your vehicle’s information and an estimate will be provided quickly!

✓ Find Your Next Car: Now that you know how much your trade-in will help with financing, it’s time to find your next set of wheels. With our vehicle reviews, buying guides, and extensive online inventory, you can do this all from the comfort of your home.

Getting Ready: Getting the Most for Your Trade-In 

✓ Clean and Detail: First impressions say a lot and with a sparkling clean and detailed vehicle, you may find its value will be higher. Throw on some cleaning gloves and thoroughly wash and detail both the inside and outside of your model or hire a professional detailer to do the work for you. Don’t forget to remove any personal items

✓ Maintenance and Repairs: To limit the work our technicians have to do before your vehicle hits the sale lot (as well as increase its value), perform any small repairs beforehand. This can include installing new brake pads or patching up a dent. Has it been a while since its last maintenance check? If so, consider scheduling one last appointment.

Getting Excited: Trading In Your Model

✓ Schedule an In-Person Inspection: When you’re ready to trade in your model and find your new set of wheels, you’ll need to schedule an appointment for an in-person inspection. During this visit, one of our technicians will look over the vehicle and compare their findings to your trade-in estimate report to provide you with a firm offer.

✓ What to Bring With: To make sure the trade-in process goes as seamlessly as possible, make sure to bring the following with you to your appointment:

• Valid driver’s license
• Vehicle’s title
• Proof of auto insurance
• Maintenance, repair, and accident history
• Auto loan information (if applicable)
