USAREC Baton Rouge Battalion Auto Shipping Services by A-1 Auto Transport
Louisiana is home to the United States Recruiting (USAREC) Baton Rouge Battalion. Its mission is to conduct recruiting operations with integrity.
It is the responsibility of the USAREC Baton Rouge to meet the requirements of the regular army, army reserves, and special missions. The field recruiting force is in charge of enlisting and processing qualified soldiers.
As an active member of the military, you may be given orders to permanently change your station (PCS) to this base. This can be a difficult process, especially if you also need to ship a vehicle. Hiring an auto shipping company, such as A-1 Auto Transport, can make your relocation process go more smoothly.
Shipping to a Base in the CONUS Area
When you receive your order for a permanent change of station (PCS), you should begin as soon as possible. If you are shipping items or privately owned vehicles to a military base, there are several things you must do before and after your items arrive.
Because this base is in the United States, the government may not support your relocation. Speaking with your transportation officer, for example, will help to simplify your move, and they will also inform you if you qualify for government sponsorship for your move and how to apply for it.

Military Car Shipping
Shipping your military vehicle during a permanent change of station (PCS) isn't as difficult as it appears. If you do not qualify for sponsorship and must ship your car yourself, there are a few things you should know.
First and foremost, you must receive your orders before making car shipping decisions. Active duty orders will determine which entitlements you are eligible for and when you must begin. It is recommended that you speak with your transportation office counselors because they are the ones who are familiar with the nitty-gritty details of your loss and gaining installations.
The next step is to determine whether you are eligible for POV entitlements, as the government will not typically pay to ship your car to a base within the continental United States during your PCS.
The next step is to find an experienced military auto shipping company to handle your car shipments. When you reach this point, you will be required to provide certain documents. They are as follows:
- A copy of your paid rental agreement if the car is a rental
- A copy of your government-issued ID.
Preparing your car for Shipment
Here are some things you can do to get your car ready for shipment. They include:
- Ensure you are up to date on maintenance
- Clean and remove personal belongings
- Leave tank about a quarter full
Military Motorcycle Shipping
During a PCS, your motorcycle can be shipped to your new base. The government will not pay for your military motorcycle shipping to a base within the country, but most shipping companies offer discounts.
Shipping your motorcycle through a shipping company that specializes in military shipments will make the process much easier and simpler.
However, before shipping to your base, you must ensure that there are no motorcycle restrictions, which you must confirm with your transportation officer.
Preparing your motorcycle for Shipment
Have your motorcycle ready for shipment by doing the following things:
- Check tire pressure
- Remove additional fittings
- Check all your paperwork is in order
- Remove fluids
