Trading in your vehicle is one of the easiest ways to reduce the cost of purchasing another car. Many drivers in High Point, Greensboro, Winston-Salem, Lexington, Asheboro, Thomasville, and Kernersville trade in their current vehicle when upgrading to something newer.

Entering basic information such as year, make, model, mileage, and condition helps provide an estimate before visiting the dealership.
Step 2: Prepare Your Vehicle
Before visiting the dealership, preparing your vehicle can help the process go smoothly.
Many drivers choose to:
• wash and vacuum the vehicle
• remove personal belongings
• gather maintenance records
• bring spare keys or accessories
A clean vehicle can make the appraisal process easier.
Step 3: Bring the Required Information
If your vehicle has a loan balance, Peters Auto Mall can help pay off your existing loan as part of the trade-in process.
To complete the transaction, please bring the following payoff information:
• name of your lender
• loan account number
• phone number for the lender
Our team can contact the lender to verify the payoff amount and handle the remaining balance as part of the trade-in transaction.
If your vehicle is already paid off, bringing the vehicle title and registration can help complete the process faster.
Step 4: Apply Your Trade Value Toward Your Next Vehicle
Once your vehicle is appraised, the value can be applied toward another vehicle purchase.
This may help:
• reduce the purchase price
• lower the amount financed
• potentially reduce monthly payments
