Can I Move Trackers from Car to Car?

If you’re looking to streamline your business’ operations, improve company car security and cut down on your fleet running costs, Fleetsmart’s advanced company car vehicle trackers could be the perfect solution for you.

For those who already have our trackers fitted in your company cars, you may be wondering if you’re able to move the trackers between cars when the time comes to replace your fleet vehicles.

In this guide, we’ll be explaining how you can transfer your Fleetsmart vehicle tracking devices between your company cars and the potential costs involved.

Can I Move My Professionally Installed Car Tracker to Another Car?

Yes, absolutely. At Fleetsmart, we can arrange for our service team to carry out an on-site visit to any UK location to transfer your existing device from one car to another. Simply give our team a call and we’ll get the transfer booked in at a time that suits you.

How Long Does it Take to Move Professionally Installed Trackers Between Cars?

In order to remove your Fleetsmart vehicle tracker from your existing company car and reinstall it into your new one, it will take between one to two hours.

Please note, any non-standard installations that include add-ons such as remote immobilisation and dash cams will add some time on top of this, so it’s important to bear this in mind when arranging the transfer if your car has these features.

It’s also important to know that if your cars are on two separate sites, it will take around 30-45 minutes to uninstall the tracker on one site and 30-45 minutes to reinstall it at the other site (plus any time it takes to travel between the two sites).

How Much Does it Cost to Move Professionally Installed Trackers Between Cars?

If the two cars that require the tracker transfer at the same location, the removal and refitting charge is £90.

However, if two site visits are required (or multiple locations), the charge is £65 per visit.

Can I Move My Self-Fit Car Tracker?

Yes! Moving Fleetsmart’s self-fit tracking devices between two cars is incredibly quick and easy.

Simply follow our installation video supplied with the devices and follow it step-by-step to uninstall your device from the existing car and reinstall it into the new car.

How Long Does it Take to Move a Self-Fit Tracker Between Cars?

Transferring Fleetsmart’s self-fit tracker between cars should take no more than 30 minutes, provided both cars are at the same location.

Do I Need Experience to Move the Self-Fit Trackers Between Cars?

No. At Fleetsmart, we’ve kept our self-fit installation process as simple as possible, so no experience is required to uninstall and reinstall the devices between cars.

Thanks to our straightforward video tutorial, you can follow along step-by-step easily.

However, if you do get stuck along the way, you can always give our team of expats a call and we’ll be happy to guide you through the process of uninstalling the car tracker from your old car and reinstalling it into your new one.
