Does The Military Ship Your Car For Free?
Your car can be towed for free by the military if you are an active member of the military and have received permanent change of station (PCS) orders. The Department of Defense states that it only pays for one person operating vehicle (POV) to be shipped.
Is There A Military Discount For Shipping A Car?
The military discount is available for shipping a car, but it is only available to active duty or retired military. The discount could range from 10% to 20% depending on the current market conditions and the mileage of the shipment.
You must inform our customer service department that you are a member of the military before you book for a military shipping discount. For more information, we suggest you speak to a representative.
In What Ways Do Military Personnel Move?
There are several moving options available to military personnel when they receive their PCS orders. If the government pays movers for your move, then it is considered a Government Managed Move. Personally Procured Move (PPM) refers to a move made with the assistance of another person or by the self. When you do everything yourself, it’s called PPM-self. PPM-assisted refers to hiring someone else to do your work.

Shipping Options
It is possible to ship vehicles on open trailers, enclosed trailers, and even flatbed transport trucks, depending on what you want to ship.
Most often, open transportation services are the most cost-effective and cheaper options. Enclosed auto transport is often recommended for expensive vehicles that aren’t driven every day.
However, enclosed transportation generally takes longer to find than open transportation. The last type of shipping service, flatbed shipping, is available on-demand for large or heavy vehicles.
No matter which option you select, your vehicle will be protected by various safety devices and be insured during the duration of the shipping process.

Door to Door Pickup and Delivery
Shipping a military vehicle across the state or country requires special skills. We possess these skills. Our door-to-door moving service is designed to make relocations easier for active and retired military personal.
Many companies that ship for military members can pick up and deliver at military bases. But the commanding officer has to approve it. Don’t make pickups or deliveries at the base without permission.
You may also meet carrier companies outside the base. If the transport truck is unable to enter the base but the commanding officer allows it to happen outside, this is an excellent alternative. You can also have your vehicle shipped to and from your home if you need it.
