Take pics of its (perfect?) condition. Pack it securely (bubblewrap?). Insure it for the trade in value. Get a receipt and keep the tracking number in case you need to check on it. These trade ins are handled by third party companies, so be aware that their actual offer may not be what the online estimator showed.
