You'll want to bring your vehicle's title (or proof of ownership), keys, and any service records you have on hand. These help us complete the appraisal and speed up the paperwork.

If you're financing or leasing through us, our finance team will guide you through any additional forms needed. If your vehicle has an outstanding loan, don't worry-we can often work with your lender to pay off that balance as part of the trade-in process.

Have questions about what else to bring? Just call us at (630) 279-5200, and we'll walk you through everything. When you're ready, visit Castle Chevrolet of Villa Park or browse our inventory online!
