How it works

What is personally owned vehicle (pov) shipping?

For moves within the continental U.S., the military doesn't usually ship your POV, so many service members hire a transporter instead of driving two cars. We work around report dates, can deliver to a spouse or a designated person, and offer a military discount.

Questions

Common questions

Is POV shipping reimbursed?

Within the U.S., shipping a POV is usually out of pocket, though part may be claimable. Check with your transportation office.

Can you deliver on base?

If the base allows commercial carriers. Otherwise the driver meets you at a nearby lot.

What about overseas orders?

Overseas POV shipments go through the government's contracted program. We can carry the car to the vehicle processing center.
