How Military Vehicle Shipping Works
We know that when you need to ship a military vehicle or ship your vehicle as a member of the military, discretion is not only appreciated but necessary. We have a secure privacy policy that ensures no details of your shipment or personal details of yourself will be released to anyone beyond your agent and driver.
Shipping your POV as a service member is different from standard auto transport. At Global Auto Transportation, we align with your PCS schedule to ensure timely delivery, handle all military-specific paperwork to avoid compliance issues, and provide secure, confidential service so your shipment details remain private. Unlike everyday shipping, we also offer base-to-base and nationwide coverage, making your relocation smooth and stress-free.
Does the Military Cover the Cost of Shipping Your Car?
In most cases, the U.S. government does not cover the cost of shipping your personal vehicle (POV) within the continental United States (CONUS) during a Permanent Change of Station (PCS). Military members are generally responsible for arranging and paying for their own vehicle transport domestically.
However, the government may pay to ship one POV overseas or from an overseas duty station back to the U.S., depending on PCS orders. Within CONUS moves, reimbursement is usually limited to mileage or travel allowances if you choose to drive your own vehicle.
That’s why many service members rely on trusted companies like Global Auto Transportation to handle their POV shipping during PCS relocations. We provide secure, nationwide auto transport tailored to military schedules, ensuring your car is delivered safely and on time wherever duty calls.
