Moron AB, Spain Shipping Services by A-1 Auto Transport

The Morón Air Base lies northwest of Morón de la Frontera. The base commander is a Colonel, as it is a Spanish Air Force facility. The base's strategic significance was demonstrated when it served as the primary tanker site for KC-10A and KC-135R planes supporting operations over Libya.

Morón Air Facility has been mainly set up to provide a strategic forward operating base to assist the US and Allied air/space power projection, including temporary and aircraft maintenance operations. Air Mobility Command, Air Force Space Command, and the Air Force Office of Special Investigations are all based at the base.

Military Car Shipping

With the government paying to ship one vehicle for you, don’t slack behind and make sure you partake from this benefit. As you know if you are shipping multiple cars, you will be paying for the shipment of the second vehicle. You have the option of buying a secondhand car when you get to the base if you don't want to pay for shipping your second vehicle. Military discounts are available, so you can consult your TO for more information.

Confirm from your Transportation officer about any prohibitions or modifications of shipping certain vehicles to the base.

Arrange the copies of the following document before your shipping date to avoid any delays. These documents will be needed to process your government sponsorship and shipping arrangement.

Valid identification that has been issued by the government.

Military Motorcycle Shipping

The process of transporting a bike is very similar to that of shipping a car. It will be assumed that you do not own a four-wheel-drive if you want the government to ship your bike as your POV. However, if it is your second vehicle, the government will not reimburse you. When it comes to changing your station, knowing this information is crucial.

Before you may ship the motorcycle, you must have confirmation of ownership or a permission sheet saying that you are free to do so.
