Will the military pay to ship my car overseas?

Published by Joe Webster.

Will the military pay to ship my car overseas?

Yes, the military does provide provisions to pay for the shipment of your car overseas. The government typically covers the cost of transporting one Privately Owned Vehicle (POV) for military personnel under orders for a Permanent Change of Station (PCS). They will make the necessary arrangements for the car shipping, ensuring the vehicle's safe and secure transit to the new location. However, this benefit usually applies to standard family cars, and oversized or recreational vehicles may not be eligible.

As members of the U.S. armed forces, various benefits are designed to make a military lifestyle easier. One of these benefits is the provision for car shipment. This facility helps individuals deployed overseas or relocated to different bases within U.S. borders transport their vehicles safely and efficiently. This eliminates the hassle of driving long distances by oneself and ensures the safety and timely arrival of the vehicle at the new location.

Eligibility Criteria for Military Car Shipment

The process of applying for military car shipment starts with understanding eligibility. Primarily, this requisite pertains to active duty service members, Department of Defense (DoD) civilian personnel, and members of the uniformed services. In specific cases, members of these categories can have the privilege to ship privately owned vehicles (POV) at the government's expense. It is essential to note that eligibility does not extend automatically to all individuals within these groups; certain stipulations and conditions apply that may dictate otherwise.

One of the main factors influencing the eligibility for military car shipping is the Permanent Change of Station (PCS) order. The PCS order's validity is scrutinized, requiring the member to be under official orders to move. The benefits extend, however, to servicemen and servicewomen subjected to retirement or separation orders. Furthermore, those who fall under categories such as the Insular Area or Outside Continental United States (OCONUS) to Continental United States (CONUS) moves, and vice versa, are also considered eligible. Maintaining compliance with these requirements helps streamline the process, rendering it more manageable for those who qualify.

Process of Applying for Military Car Shipment

Gathering the required documentation is imperative before taking a plunge into the process of applying for military car shipment. This typically includes details such as the service member benefit documents, the military orders, and a copy of the vehicle's title or registration. These documents in hand are necessary for progressing with the application. Therefore, ensuring all the necessary paperwork is available before initiation is vital.

The actual application involves getting in touch with a military car shipment provider. They guide the service personnel through the logistical aspects of the shipment, setting a date for pickup and delivery. It's crucial to consult with the provider regarding the vehicle conditions that qualify for shipping and any potential restrictions based on the location. These discussions can avoid any inconvenience in later stages.

There are a lot of options for auto transport these days, which surprisingly makes it harder to find a good company. I received more than 10 offers to ship my car, but I couldn’t decide on any of them... Fortunately, I made the right choice with A1 Auto Transport.
