Military Car Shipping by Safe Car Hauling
What is Military Car Shipping?
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. Additionally, Safe Car Hauling provides the option of door-to-door auto shipping for enhanced ease.
How Does Military Car Shipping Work?
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.
Does the Military Ship Your Car for Free?
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.

"Safe Car Hauling was awesome in every way. They responded with a quote quickly. The price to auto transport the vehicle was reasonable. The service was great.

They were a little more expensive then the other transporters, but in life you get what you pay for. There weren't any hidden charges, or extra fees, most important reason why I hired them. The whole process went without a hitch.
Strong recommendation for this auto transpot company!"

Discover comprehensive insights into our dependable auto transport services. Gain a deep understanding of our exceptional solutions and how they cater to your specific needs.
Is there an extra fee for modifications on my vehicle?
Certainly, additional fees may apply for military PCS vehicle shipping when dealing with modified cars. These vehicles typically occupy more space on the carrier's truck and necessitate special equipment accommodations.
What documents do you need for a military relocation?
Ensuring all necessary documentation is organized and up-to-date can significantly reduce the stress of your military relocation. Here's what you'll need:
- Travel Voucher: DD 1351-2
- Application for DITY Move and Counseling Checklist: DD 2278
- A copy of your Permanent Change of Station (PCS) travel orders
- Two certified weight tickets: one for the full/gross weight and one for the empty/tare weight
- A copy of your paid rental agreement
- A copy of your vehicle registration if you’re using a privately owned vehicle (POV), boat, or trailer

Having these documents prepared will streamline your relocation process.
Can personal items be shipped as part of your military car shipping service?
You are allowed to transport up to 100 lbs of personal belongings in the trunk or cargo area of the vehicle you're shipping, provided they are securely packed in a single box or suitcase. However, shipping personal items inside the vehicle is not permitted for vehicles being transported to or from Hawaii. Additionally, it's important to note that personal items are not covered under the cargo insurance provided by military car shippers.
How does the military car shipping program work?
Our military car shipping program operates similarly to our standard auto transport services, with a few key distinctions. Please notify your shipping advisor at the time of booking if you are a military member, enabling us to apply your discount. For shipments to and from a military base, it is necessary to meet the military car shippers at the base's exterior.
Can you deliver to my military base if I am not there?
Absolutely, our dedicated customer support team will collaborate closely with you to fulfill your precise requirements, guaranteeing a seamless and stress-free shipping experience.
Do you offer any car shipping military discounts?
Our sophisticated car shipping rate calculator delivers the most competitive rates for military car shipping, ensuring the high-quality service you deserve from a trustworthy transport provider. Your rate may include potential for a military discount. To explore available discount options, please consult with a car shipping coordinator, who will assess if there's flexibility in your rate.
Does Amazon ship cars for the military?
To the best of our knowledge, they do not offer exclusive military car transport services. While we have received mentions from customers, we have yet to verify such offerings.
How long will it take to ship my car?
Upon placing your order, you'll be provided with an estimated transit time for your shipment, offering you a delivery window for your car's arrival. Transit times vary based on the distance of the move. Given the unique nature of each delivery, there's a possibility your car may arrive sooner than the initial estimate suggests.
Is my car insured during transport?
Indeed, the carrier's cargo insurance offers protection against damage during transport. Furthermore, we possess additional contingent cargo insurance for enhanced coverage.
