Vehicle Transfers

Move a vehicle between GarageHQ accounts cleanly.

Selling or buying from another GarageHQ user? Two-sided handshake transfers move the vehicle, photo, mileage, MOT history and (with the seller's tickbox approval) service history and expenses with it. Both parties keep a copy.

For private sellers handing over to private buyers, family-fleet owners reassigning vehicles between members, and small dealer-broker setups that want a clean digital handover.

How it works

What you get out of the box.

Buyer-claims-then-seller-confirms
Buyer hits 'Bought this vehicle' on your shared sell listing. You then pick what to share (photo / mileage / MOT history / service history / parts and bills) and confirm. No data moves until both sides have acted.
Tickboxes for what to share
You decide. Vehicle basics (reg, make, model, colour) always transfer; everything else is opt-in. A buyer who wants a low-history car gets a clean account; one who wants the full provenance gets every receipt.
Tier gating done right
Service history and expenses unlock for buyers on Garage and Fleet tiers. Personal-tier buyers get a polite 'upgrade to receive these' nudge in the confirmation email so they can take the data they paid for.
Receipts copied to R2
Where you transferred parts-and-bills entries with attached receipts, the actual files copy to the buyer's R2 storage so they can re-download them without your account being involved.
Email-mismatch protection
Email-gated listings refuse claims from accounts whose email doesn't match the recipient. Even if your buyer forwards the link, only the right account can claim. No more wrong-buyer mistakes.
Reversible mistakes
Claimed by the wrong account? Wrong vehicle picked? Our admin tooling can revoke a confirmed transfer or reassign a pending one. The audit trail records who did what so disputes are quick to resolve.
FAQ

Common questions

Does the buyer have to be on the same plan as me?

No. Anyone with a GarageHQ account can claim a transfer. Personal-tier buyers receive vehicle basics, photo, mileage and MOT history regardless. Service history and expenses unlock at Garage tier and above. The seller doesn't need to know the buyer's plan in advance.

What if they don't have an account yet?

They sign up. The sell-listing page directs unauthenticated buyers to /login (with a 'sign up' option) and bounces them back to claim the listing once they're signed in. New accounts get the 14-day trial automatically so the buyer-claim path is unobstructed.

Can I undo a transfer after it's happened?

Self-serve no, contact-us yes. The 'undo' flow on a confirmed transfer is destructive (it deletes the buyer's vehicle row and child records) so we keep it admin-side. Email [email protected] and we'll revert it. The audit log makes this clean. Both parties can see what was reverted.
