If you're shipping your POV during a PCS, your vehicle must meet strict cleanliness requirements. At Varsity Car Care, we specialize in preparing vehicles for military transport inspections—so you don’t get turned away or delayed.
Your vehicle must be free of all dirt, debris, and contaminants, including under seats, in compartments, and in the trunk. Even small items like leaves, sand, pet hair, or food particles can cause a failed inspection.
Yes—we offer undercarriage rinsing as part of our PCS prep service. This is one of the most important areas, since dirt and buildup underneath the vehicle are common reasons for failed inspections.
We recommend getting your vehicle cleaned within 24–48 hours of your appointment to keep it in inspection-ready condition and avoid dust or buildup before drop-off.
Your car needs to be completely free of dirt, debris, and personal items. This includes the exterior, interior, trunk, and hard-to-reach areas like under seats. Even small things like sand, leaves, or crumbs can cause issues.
Engine bay cleaning is not always required, but it is recommended if there is visible dirt, leaves, or debris. A clean engine bay can help avoid issues during inspection.
Most PCS prep details take 1.5 to 3 hours, depending on the size and condition of the vehicle. Heavily soiled vehicles may take longer to ensure they meet inspection standards.
We are fully mobile, so we come to your home, apartment, or base housing. This makes it easy to get your vehicle cleaned without adding stress to your move.
