Military & PCS Vehicle Shipping

How PCS moves work for privately owned vehicles, what documentation is required and how to time a transport around report dates.

In this guide

  1. POV shipping and your orders
  2. Timing around a report date
  3. Documentation to have ready
  4. Discounts and released-to-third-party pickup

POV shipping and your orders

Your orders drive everything: report date, authorized destination and whether the government is moving one vehicle for you. Anything beyond the authorized POV is on you, and that is where we usually come in.

Timing around a report date

Build in a buffer. Book pickup at least a week before you fly out and target delivery a few days after arrival so you are not paying for storage or a rental while a truck is en route.

Documentation to have ready

A copy of orders, military ID, registration, and a signed power of attorney if a spouse or family member will release or receive the vehicle on your behalf.

Discounts and released-to-third-party pickup

We hold rates for active duty, Guard and Reserve. If you have already reported, we can arrange for a neighbor or family member to release the vehicle with written authorization on file.
