Military Car Shipping & Auto Transport
Military relocations can mean moving across a state or clear across the country, sometimes on a schedule that leaves very little room for extra logistics.
Heights Transport Solutions coordinates military car shipping for service members moving to or from a duty station, beginning a new assignment or returning home after their time in the military.
One Less Thing to Drive Across the Country
Shipping your vehicle can eliminate a long drive, extra mileage and the wear that comes with putting hundreds or thousands of highway miles on the car during a move.
It can also make sense when your household moving company handles everything except the one item that inconveniently has four tires and its own registration.
Heights coordinates nationwide vehicle transport for military relocations throughout the country.
Built Around Your Moving Timeline
We start with your pickup location, destination and timeline, then work with carriers to arrange dates that fit the move as closely as possible.
Once a carrier is lined up, Heights keeps you informed with the pickup and delivery details along with the carrier and driver information.
Weather, holidays, snowbird season and carrier availability can all affect timing, so pickup and delivery dates should be treated as estimates rather than military-grade precision.

Open or Enclosed Vehicle Transport
For most everyday vehicles, open auto transport is the most practical and affordable option.
Enclosed transport is also available for classic, luxury or other vehicles that need added protection during the trip.
What Military Car Shipping Costs
Pricing depends on distance, route, vehicle size, transport method, timing and carrier availability.
Long-distance military moves can sometimes overlap with busy seasonal shipping periods, which may affect both price and scheduling.
