How to Trade In a Car Near Matthews

Wondering how to trade in a car and get the best offer in Monroe? If you need to make some room in your driveway before you can upgrade to a new Chevy in the Matthews area, Hendrick Chevrolet Monroe is here to help you make a successful trade. Visit our dealership when you’re ready to get a same-day top-dollar offer on your trade-in vehicle! In the meantime, we’ve laid out some of our top tips for how to trade in your car in the guide below.

First, Estimate Your Trade-In’s Value Online

Before you head to your preferred dealership to trade in your vehicle, you’ll want to estimate its value so you know what to expect for the official offer from the appraisal team. This is easy to do online using our own value your trade tool—simply enter your year, make, and model and provide some brief contact info, and you can receive an instant estimate of your trade-in’s value. You can also compare this estimate against trusted resources like Kelley Blue Book® Value and Edmunds True Market Value® for a fuller picture of how your specific vehicle tends to be valued.

Next, Visit the Dealership for An Appraisal 

The amount you’re quoted online for your trade-in vehicle is merely an estimate, so you will still need to go to the dealership with your vehicle to get a complete appraisal. If you choose to trade in your car at Hendrick Chevrolet Monroe, the appraisal process will be carried out by an experienced member of our team. 

They will examine your vehicle’s overall condition and consult our current nationwide used inventory to determine how sellable your car is and for what price it’s most likely to sell. If you bring along any trade-in estimates you’ve received online or from other dealerships, we will also take these into account.

An Offer Is Made

After appraising your vehicle, we will make an official trade-in offer. At Hendrick Chevrolet Monroe, we believe the entire trade-in process should be transparent and straightforward, so our customers have a complete understanding of how their trade-in offer was calculated. With a Hendrick nationwide pre-owned inventory of 5,000+ vehicles, we’re able to make top-dollar offers on all of the vehicles we appraise! However, we welcome negotiation, as we want our Waxhaw customers to have total confidence in the number they agree upon.

Top market offers are just one benefit of trading in your car at a dealership rather than selling it privately. Other benefits include: 

• You’ll endure a lot less hassle and stress when you sell your car to a dealership. There’s no need to spend your time photographing, listing, and advertising your vehicle, or fielding offers and meeting up with strangers because our dealership handles all of these steps after we buy your vehicle. Instead of taking multiple weeks or even months to sell your car, you can get a same-day offer at our dealership and head home to Weddington in the new car of your dreams!
• If your current vehicle is becoming too expensive and you’re worried about becoming upside-down on your auto loan, selling it to a dealership means you can consolidate what you owe into a new, more affordable ride. 

When you’re ready to accept an offer, you can trade-in your car for cash or apply the offer as a credit toward your next vehicle purchase.
