5 Tips for Part Exchanging Your Company Van

If you’re considering upgrading your company van, part exchanging can be a smart move. Not only does it simplify the process of acquiring a new vehicle, but it can also save you money in the long run. To ensure a smooth part exchange experience, follow these five tips from the pros here at Vanaways.

Assess the Value of Your Current Van

Before diving into the part exchange process, it’s crucial to know the current market value of your company van. Carry out online research, consult industry guides, and consider factors such as mileage, condition and service history. This information will empower you during negotiations and help you get the best deal on your new van.

Gather the Necessary Documentation

Having all the necessary documentation in order can significantly expedite the part exchange process. Ensure you have the logbook, service history, MOT certificates and any relevant receipts for maintenance and repairs. This comprehensive documentation not only showcases the well-maintained state of your current van but also builds trust with the dealership, potentially resulting in a better part exchange deal.

Research New Van Deals

Take the opportunity to explore the latest new van deals offered here at Vanaways. We have a range of options to suit a wide variety of business requirements and budgets. Whether you’re looking for a compact city van or a spacious cargo van, we’re sure to have something that caters to your unique needs.

Be Transparent About Your Van’s Condition

Honesty is key when part exchanging your company van. Be transparent about its condition, highlighting both its strengths and any minor issues. Dealerships often appreciate openness, and it builds a positive relationship that can lead to a more favourable part exchange deal. Additionally, being clear about your van’s condition helps the dealership accurately assess its value, reducing the likelihood of surprises during negotiations.

Negotiate Wisely

Negotiation is a key aspect of part exchanging your company van. Armed with knowledge about your van’s value and the latest new van deals, negotiate confidently. Be open to compromises, explore additional perks like extended warranties or service packages, and don’t be afraid to walk away if the deal doesn’t meet your expectations. At Vanaways, we’re committed to customer satisfaction and are confident that a fair negotiation can result in a mutually beneficial arrangement.

"Very happy with our Vanaways transaction! We needed three new vans quickly for our company and Vanaways didn't disappoint. Hannah and Abbie were on hand every step of the way and provided extremely good prices which suited our business. Customer service is a priority for them and it shows with every phone call and email! When I need a few more, they will be my first port of call. Thankyou guys!"

"Great service right from the first contact with Reece, who then passed me onto Ash once initial sale was completed. From making payment delivery was approximately 3 days. Received text from Nathan this morning (16th June) and he was on time with delivery. Really pleased with the service I've received. Many thanks!"

"First class service, I must mention Adrian & Ash on an excellent deal & swift turn around under the short notice I had to buying a new van. Slight delay in the delivery of the van from manufacturers end but Adrian agreed to cover the cost of a hire van until my new van was delivered which allowed me to continue working. its the first time i've purchased a van without physically entering a dealership and i wouldn't hesitate to do it again."
