Bring your vehicle title (or proof of ownership), your keys, and any maintenance records you have-especially if the car is newer or recently serviced. If you still have a loan on the vehicle, the lender's info is helpful, but our finance team can often locate that. For a smoother process, also have your driver's license and the vehicle identification number (VIN) ready. That's the core set. If you've had warranty coverage or service packages, those documents can add value too. Our team will guide you through exactly what's needed once you're ready to trade. Just call **(877) 331-4442** and let them know you're planning a trade-in-they'll confirm what to bring and answer any questions about the paperwork. We make it as straightforward as possible.
