Sell your car in Biloxi: running, won't start or leaving on PCS orders
To sell your car in Biloxi, MS, describe it online or by phone for a firm cash offer, then free pickup and a sale that can close the same week. If you're assigned to Keesler Air Force Base, the base gives you two other places for the car: a resale lot where you sell it yourself, and a storage lot for when you're away on TDY.

From first call to pickup
- Call, text or use the form. (877) 405-1808 takes calls and texts, or the form below works between classes. The offer usually comes back the same day, and nobody needs to come look at the car first.
- Say if there's a loan. The payoff goes to your lender out of the proceeds and the difference comes to you. Have your loan account number and the lender's phone number ready.
- Pick the pickup day. Pickup commonly lands within a few days of accepting, and it is set around your report date, so you can keep driving the car until a day or two before you leave.
Where we pick up around Biloxi
If the car is parked on Keesler, say so when you ask for the offer and we'll agree on a handoff spot that works. Off base, pickup is free on the peninsula from the Point to West Biloxi, in north Biloxi out to Woolmarket, and across the Back Bay in D'Iberville. It also reaches Gulfport to the west and runs east through Ocean Springs to Pascagoula and Moss Point.
The resale lot bills until you call. If you take the car off the lot to sell it, tell Arts & Crafts at 228-377-2821 when it leaves. Under the lot's contract, the monthly charge keeps coming until you do, there is no refund if the car sells right after a payment, and a car that returns within 90 days is billed the third-month fee.
Shipping rules and the Keesler resale lot
On stateside orders, moving the car is largely on you: the military pays mileage back through MALT if you drive it, and shipping it is at your own cost. Overseas orders can bring an entitlement to ship or store one car at government expense, booked through PCSmyPOV, and Military OneSource says storage under the Global POV Contract means no out-of-pocket monthly bill. Keesler's household goods and transportation office can tell you what your orders cover.
Selling on base means the resale lot on Meadows Drive, run by the Arts & Crafts Center. Only owners assigned to Keesler can use it: active duty, retirees, reserve, guard, civilian staff and other authorized personnel. You register first with a valid registration and proof of insurance, and the sale is between you and the buyer. A shopper without a DoD ID needs a DoD ID holder to sponsor them onto the base, and the visitor center at the Division Street Gate is open weekdays, 6 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Or sell it to us: you can lock in an offer as soon as your orders are in hand. A title from another state doesn't stop the sale; selling with an out-of-state title explains the details. If this is your first PCS with a car, read how selling before a PCS move works before you choose.
Cash for your car in Biloxi
Keesler's resale lot won't take a car that doesn't run: its contract says anything parked there must be fully operational, with tires that are inflated and not leaking. If you want cash for cars in Biloxi and yours won't start, you can still get an offer on it. How a junk or non-running car sale works is on its own page.
The city's June 2025 flood-zone map shows nearly all of Point Cadet, the eastern tip of the peninsula, in a flood zone, along with Eagle Point in north Biloxi. If your car has sat in floodwater, selling a flood-damaged car explains what changes.
Before you pay to fix a slipping transmission or an engine that knocks or overheats just to meet the resale lot's fully operational rule, read selling a car with a slipping transmission or selling a car with a knocking or overheating engine, which show when the repair is worth it and when selling as is makes more sense. For dents and body damage from a storm or a crash, see selling a damaged car.

Asked by Biloxi sellers
My car is on the Keesler resale lot and my out date is close. What if it hasn't sold?
The lot is not storage or long-term parking. Its contract allows a car to stay up to three months unless Arts & Crafts approves more time, and after that you can be told to move it or have it towed at your expense. If no buyer has turned up, you can still get an offer from us and set pickup before you leave.
Where can a car wait on Keesler during a TDY?
The Auto Hobby Shop at 109 G St. (Building 6005) lists a vehicle storage lot for people going TDY. Call 228-377-2821 to reserve a spot. The rates are in the box above.
What will the Harrison County tag office ask my buyer for?
If your buyer titles the car in Harrison County, the Tax Collector's tag office, with its Biloxi office at 730 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd., asks for the original title signed by the owner or owners as shown on the front. On a car bought from a Mississippi individual it also wants a copy of your current tag receipt, to check that no back ad valorem tax is owed, and every new owner has to be there to sign unless a notarized power of attorney form is used. Hand your buyer a copy of that receipt with the keys.
Do I get any Harrison County car tax back after I sell?
No refund: the county's tax collector says it doesn't issue them, per state law. When you surrender the tag, you get a certificate of credit instead. Besides the Biloxi office, the tax collector has two offices in Gulfport, at 1801 23rd Avenue and at the Multi-Services Building on Seaway Road.
