What Are Military Vehicle Transport Services?
Military auto transport services help move army personally owned vehicles (POVs) and equipment for training from one state to another military base or within the state. These services support military personnel during a permanent change of station (PCS), state-to-state moves, or emergency deployments.
For example, if a soldier is transferred from Fort Lauderdale, FL, to Fort Custer, MI, a military car shipping company can safely transport the vehicle over 1,300 miles while the soldier focuses on reporting to the new base.

How long does military vehicle shipping take?
The average time to deliver a military vehicle is 1–2 weeks, depending on several factors such as distance, vehicle size and type, pickup and drop-off locations, and the shipping method.
Based on our past experience, car delivery takes 2–3 days for distances under 1,000 miles. For longer routes, it takes between 1,000 and 1,750 miles.
A solo carrier can drive a trailer up to 500 miles per day, while a team of drivers can cover 800–1,000 miles per day according to FMCSA policies.
For example:
Military car shipping from Fort Drum Base, New York, to Joint Base Cape Cod, Massachusetts, covers a total distance of 386 miles. The carrier can complete this route within one day.
| Distance (Miles) | Estimated Turnaround Time |
|---|---|
| Under 1,000 | 2 - 3 Days |
| 1,000 - 1,750 | 4 - 6 Days |
| 1,750 - 2,500 | 7 - 10 Days |
What types of transport options are available for military auto shipping?
NexGen Auto Transport provides flexible and customized transport options. We offer four shipping methods: open vehicle transport, enclosed transport, door-to-door delivery, and expedited car shipping.
Open vehicle Transport
Open vehicle transport trailers carry multiple cars at once without any surrounding walls or roof, exposing them to the elements, which results in lower costs. Our open vehicle transport service is the most economical and widely used option for military shipping. This method is recommended for standard cars, small-sized SUVs, and heavy equipment. It works well for both short and long distances, but vehicles remain exposed to weather and road dust.
Enclosed Transport
Enclosed transport methods move your car in a dedicated enclosed trailer that offers maximum protection. Vehicles transport in covered trailers that shield them from road debris and weather. It is chosen for high-value or classic cars. The cost is higher, but the safety is greater. This is a good fit for service members with special vehicles. Enclosed trailers are 40% more expensive than open vehicle transport.
Expedited Car Shipping
Expedited Shipping, also known as fast car shipping, is a service where auto transport companies provide instant or same-day to two-day shipping within or outside the state. NexGen offers expedited auto shipping services across all 50 U.S. states. We provide a dedicated team of drivers for fast and reliable transport from one state to another.
Base to Base Transport
We offer both door-to-door car shipping and base-to-base delivery to match your military schedule. Our licensed carriers pick up your vehicle from your current home or base and deliver it directly to your new residence or duty station.
We understand that direct access to a base or residential area can be limited due to security or space restrictions. That’s why we coordinate with you to find the nearest safe and accessible spot for pickup or delivery.
