Military car shipping: built for PCS moves

Every year, thousands of service members relocate on Permanent Change of Station (PCS) orders. Shipping a vehicle, instead of driving it cross-country, saves time, mileage, and stress. We work with active-duty military, veterans, reservists, and their families to move vehicles anywhere in the US and overseas.

As a broker with a nationwide network of vetted carriers, we negotiate direct rates and pass the savings on to military customers. We also understand the specific needs of PCS moves: tight timelines, last-minute schedule changes, and clear documentation.

Our military shipping rates are available to:

Active-duty service members (Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Space Force, Coast Guard)

Pricing for military car shipping

Military customers receive special pricing on top of our already competitive rates. Typical estimates for a standard sedan:

Over 1,500 miles: about $1.00 per mile, for standard vehicles under 7,000 lbs
1,500 miles or less: an estimated range online, then your confirmed price by email within 2 business hours
Commercial or over 7,000 lbs: a custom quote from an advisor

These are estimates only. The final price is confirmed after your quote is reviewed. Our 30-day TruePrice Guarantee locks your quoted price so it won't increase after booking.

Military Shipping FAQ

Military car shipping questions

How do I prove my military status for the discount?

Just mention your military status when you request your quote or call us directly. Your advisor may ask for your branch and status (active duty, veteran, spouse) for documentation. No sensitive information is required.

Does the military pay for vehicle shipping on PCS moves?

In some cases, yes. The military may reimburse a portion of vehicle shipping costs on a PCS move. Check with your transportation office (TO) or finance office. We provide the Bill of Lading and documentation you need to file a claim.

Can you ship my car if I'm deployed overseas?

Yes. We ship vehicles to and from overseas military installations, including Germany, Japan, South Korea, Italy, and the UK. These routes require a manual quote because they involve ocean transport and customs.

Do you offer discounts on enclosed transport for military?

Yes, military discounts apply to both open and enclosed transport. If you're shipping a high-value vehicle on a PCS move, ask your advisor about combining the military rate with enclosed transport.
