RAF Alconbury, RAF Molesworth Auto Shipping Services by A-1 Auto Transport

Royal Air Force (RAF) Alconbury and Royal Air Force Molesworth are both active air stations located in England.

RAF Alconbury is near Huntingdon England. It is an air station that has been in use since 1938. It was home then to the RAF Bomber Command but then since 1942, it has been used by the United States Army Air Force. RAF Molesworth is located near Molesworth, Cambridgeshire, England. It has existed since 1917 and is home to the United States Air Force.

If you are posted to any of these air stations, you might be excited. However, getting your vehicle to the base might seem so complicated to you. A-1 Auto Transport ships vehicles to both stations and we can walk you through the process.

Shipping to a Base in the OCONUS Area

RAF, Alconbury, and RAF Molesworth are outside the Continental United States. This means that the government is supposed to pay for the shipping of a single vehicle of yours.

The sponsorship though, will need documentation and following up. If you ignore the process you might end up having to sponsor the shipping of your vehicle. To know the process in detail, discuss it with your transportation officer.

Either way, you will still need to contact auto transport companies that offer military shipping services to get shipping quotes among other information.

Full List of Military Shipping Services We Offer

We don’t ship only cars. We also ship:

• Motorcycles

Military Car Shipping

If all goes according to plan, the military should be responsible for paying the shipping costs of your vehicles. There are designated military movers that offer spartan kinds of moving services. They might not give you the special services you want.

However, there is the option to hire an auto shipping company to move your vehicle to any of the air stations. This is becoming a more popular shipping option because the services are usually convenient and easy to process.

RAF Alconbury and Molesworth will have rules about the kind of vehicles allowed on base. Get the rules from your transportation officer and ensure the vehicle you want to ship complies with the rules.

There will be documentation to do at various points of the shipping process. You will need:

• Proof of ownership of the vehicle to be shipped or proof that that owner has permitted you to ship it if it is a lease
• Military identification
• PCS

Preparing your car for Shipment

Before you ship your vehicle, you will need to get it ready. Doing that involves:

• Checking the tires for leaks and fixing the leaks.
• Washing the car with detergent and rinsing with clean water.

Military Motorcycle Shipping

The government will pay for the shipping of a single vehicle. If you have a car and a motorcycle, it will be a better move to get the sponsorship for the car while you pay for the shipping of the motorbike.

Some military movers can move your motorbikes but you will need efficient and convenient shipping services that will allow you to focus on reporting for duty.

There are documents you will need to process the shipping of your motorcycles and they include proof of ownership of the bike and government-issued identification.

Preparing your motorcycle for Shipment

Preparing a motorcycle for shipping involves:

• Disconnecting the battery of the motorbike.
• Checking the tires for leaks including slow leaks and fixing them.
