How to Find the Value of a Used Van

If you are selling your old van or want to buy a new one, you will need to know the vehicle's value to determine what a fair asking price or reasonable purchase price is. Several websites, including the Kelley Blue Book website, can help you do this.


  1. Visit the Kelley Blue Book website. This source is used by car sellers and consumers to help determine the value of a vehicle in its current condition.

  2. Click on one of the three value options listed. You can choose from "What Should I Pay for a New Car?" "What Should I Pay for a Used Car?" or "What's My Current Car Worth?" If you currently own a van, click "What's My Current Car Worth?"

  3. Decide whether you will sell your vehicle, trade it in, or are just curious about the value.

  4. Choose the year, make and model of your van from the drop down menu, or click on the category of the vehicle or make. Click on the picture of the van.

  5. Type your zip code into the pop up window and click "OK."

  6. Choose the make and type of van you have. The categories are listed on the left side of the screen.

  7. Choose any extra options your van has. Place a check mark in the box next to each option. Some of the choices include power locks and windows, disc changers and trim packages.

  8. Click on the "Get the Value of your Car" button. The current value based on your selections will be displayed.
