Delivery day is exciting-and organized. From final paperwork to vehicle orientation, we walk you through every step so you leave confident and ready.

**The delivery timeline**

Expect 1-2 hours. You'll review and sign final paperwork (title, registration, financing documents), complete a walk-around inspection with our team, receive keys and owner materials, and learn about your vehicle's features, warranties, and service schedule. Bring the documents discussed in our financing guide, your insurance information, and valid ID.

**Before you drive off**

Our team inspects the vehicle for any transit damage, confirms all electronics and controls work, shows you the infotainment and climate systems, and answers questions. If you notice anything concerning, flag it immediately-we're here to make sure you're 100% satisfied.

Delivery is the start of your ownership journey. Call Castle Cadillac McHenry at (779) 265-4427 to ask any pre-delivery questions, or visit us at 1107 State Rte 31, Mchenry, IL 60050. We can't wait to get you on the road in your new Cadillac.
