Shipping to a Base in the OCONUS Area

Because Germany is located outside of the continental United States, the government will cover the expense of transporting a single POV. The expense of the relocation will not be your responsibility.

But this is the military, so no assumptions are allowed. You should go to your transportation officer with your PCS to learn about the process of receiving government financial aid. Also, see whether there is a waiting list for these types of benefits.

After you've gathered all of the necessary information, you should call a reputable third-party military mover who can transport cars to the desired location.

Military Car Shipping

There are several factors to consider when shipping your POV to a military base such as Kalkar – U.S. Air Force Element.

The first thing to remember is that your vehicle must be included in your PCS. For more information on how to ensure your POV is included in your orders, contact your TO. You may be required to fill out forms and submit documents.

The government bears the costs of shipping a single POV to an OCONUS location. If your family is set on having another car on the base, you will have to pay to ship it. However, before you do so, check with your TO to see if the base accepts such arrangements.

You will need the following documents to complete the government-approved shipping process for your POV:

• Proof of entitlement: You will need a copy of your official orders, as well as all of the entitlements that come with them.
• Proof of ownership: You must provide proof that you own the vehicle you are about to ship.
• Identification: Your government-issued identification will be required.

If you intend to ship a leased vehicle, you must provide proof that the owner approves of the vehicle's exportation.

Preparing your car for Shipment

If you want to send a car to another country, there are a few things you must do. It's as follows:

• Have a mechanic look over your vehicle for any major issues. Either correct the flaws or keep a record of them.
• To slow down the discharge rate, remove the battery or unplug it.

Military Motorcycle Shipping

The US government will cover the cost of sending a single vehicle if you are assigned to the airbase. If the vehicle is a motorcycle, you will be eligible for shipping assistance.

If you have more than one bike to ship, be aware that you will be charged for the second vehicle's shipment. You should establish payment arrangements in this situation. Officers receive military discounts from most organizations, including A-1 Auto Transport.

When it comes to prepping your motorcycle for shipping, you'll need a few documents. Proof of ownership or a lease agreement, military identification, and proof of government-sponsored shipping are among them.
