Discounted rates for active-duty service members and veterans, pickup windows built around report dates, and coordinators who understand that orders change.
Fast, secure pricing in 30 seconds.
When orders come, the government may move one privately owned vehicle for an overseas assignment, but for most stateside moves shipping a vehicle is the family's own decision and expense. Many families ship one car and drive the other; some ship both and fly. Golden State offers a military rate for active-duty service members and veterans, builds the pickup window around the report date, and handles delivery to bases nationwide — Norfolk, Jacksonville, San Diego, Bremerton, Fort Hood, Fort Bragg, Nellis, Hill, Tinker and others.
We work regularly with families at Edwards Air Force Base, the Joint Forces Training Base at Los Alamitos, the Naval Weapons Station at Seal Beach, Camp Pendleton, Naval Base San Diego, March Air Reserve Base, Vandenberg and Point Mugu. Our Palmdale, Lakewood and Long Beach offices are the closest to the LA-area installations.
Carriers deliver to the base's designated vehicle receiving area or to a meeting point just outside the gate, depending on the installation's access rules for commercial trucks. Give the coordinator the receiving party's name and phone number — you, a spouse, a sponsor — and we'll plan the handoff around the base's requirements. Remove base decals you'll need before the car ships; they should travel with you.
Orders change. Tell your coordinator if the report date moves and we'll re-plan the pickup window. If you have a few days of flexibility on pickup, say so — it gets a better carrier and a better price, and it leaves room when the schedule shifts.
