Military auto transport, designed exclusively for both active and retired military personnel, ensures that your vehicle relocation is seamless, even with short-notice permanent change-of-station (PCS) orders. Choosing a reputable military car shipping service, like Safe Car Hauling, means partnering with experts who understand the unique demands and tight schedules of military relocations. Our service aims for convenience, offering to pick up and deliver your vehicle as near to your specified location as possible. For active military members, car shipping often comes with military discounts, and if you’re relocating a single vehicle, you may be eligible for government reimbursement.

Military vehicle transport operates similarly to conventional auto transport, exclusively available to active military personnel. The government typically covers the expense for shipping one privately owned vehicle (POV) in the case of a Permanent Change of Station (PCS) order. Should you wish to transport additional vehicles, the financial responsibility will fall on you.
As an active service member, if you’re issued a permanent change of station (PCS) order, the government may cover the cost of shipping one personal operating vehicle (POV). However, it’s crucial to verify specific eligibility criteria with the Department of Defense, as you could be liable for the expenses of military car shipping. For tailored car shipping quotes at military rates, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
