Should You Trade In Your Current Vehicle For A Wheelchair Accessible Van?

Trading in your current vehicle can make a new accessible van more affordable. Before you decide, it helps to understand how the process works and what affects the value of your trade.

Start by gathering the basics: the year, make, model, mileage and condition of your vehicle, plus any service records and photos. If your current vehicle has a conversion, include details of the equipment and its condition, because that can affect the offer.

Be realistic about condition. Small cosmetic wear is normal, but mechanical problems or damage will reduce the value. Telling us about issues up front helps avoid surprises later.

Compare the trade-in offer with what you might receive by selling privately. A private sale can bring a higher price but takes more time, and you will need to handle the paperwork and any buyer questions yourself. A trade-in is simpler and the value is applied straight to your purchase.

If you decide to trade in, we will confirm the value in writing as part of your purchase paperwork, so you know exactly how it affects the total.
