TEMPORARY DUTY ASSIGNMENT HOUSING RENTALS
Military Crashpad provides off-base housing rentals to Active Duty, Guard, and Reserve military members in many areas that include Altus, OK, San Antonio, TX, and Albuquerque, NM. We provide lodging for any military member who is attending Randolph AFB while on a TDY for PIT, RFC, RIQ, URT, or IFF. Our business is committed to changing the typical TDY Crashpad experience. With owners that know the frustrations and annoyances that typically accompany a long-term TDY, we do not overbook our houses with the typical profit-driven mindset that you will find with other crashpad companies. Being a family and veteran-owned and operated company, we are able to cater to your specific needs and treat you as we would like to be treated. We cater to all classes coming to Randolph AFB. Whether you’re attending PIT, URT, RFC, RIQ or IFF, our house is available to you!
What sets us apart from other TDY lodging options is not only our attention to detail and cleanliness but our ability to customize your stay to what you need! We offer many services while staying at our houses and also cater to your individual wants and needs. Routine cleaning service, on-call staff, and FREE Lyft Credits are just a few of the services that set us apart from the competition. When you stay with Military Crashpad, you don’t just stay in a Crashpad or PIT Pad, you join our family.

HOW OUR MILITARY CRASH PAD WORKS
Fully-furnished
A Crashpad™ is for members of the military who need lodging during their temporary duty assignment (TDY). While members of the military have the option of staying at the base hotel, or at an off-base hotel or apartment, our crash pads are the most comfortable option with ample amenities like maid service, fully equipped kitchens, on-call staff, and more!

No out of pocket costs
Military members on TDY orders won’t have to pay anything out of pocket for lodging expenses when they stay with us! Most of our crash pads are listed at the VOQ on-base lodging rate. The only things you need to bring are your clothes and food (Check out our FAQs to learn more). We’ve thought of every detail to make your DoD Lodging experience as comfortable and convenient as possible. We provide the BEST Military Crash Pad, Randolph PIT Pad, and Altus Crash Pad.

GSA Approved for Federal Travelers
The Hotel and Motel Fire Safety Act of 1990 encourages fire safety in places that offer lodging to the public. Use the Hotel-Motel National Master List to find hotels and motels that:
-Have at least one single-station and hard-wired smoke alarm in each guest room.
-Are approved for U.S. federal government employees while on official travel.
TESTIMONIALS
Bobby M.
"Working with Military Crashpad was one of the best and easiest experiences I’ve had in the military. It’s never easy PCSing but they did everything in their power to make it just a little bit easier and less stressful. The apartment we stayed in was clean and had all the modern amenities one would expect. Steph and Johnny crushed the customer support and every question/issue was addressed instantly. I can’t recommend MC enough for your TDY or PCS needs!" October 10, 2019, Randolph AFB

"Overall my stay with MCP was awesome.Johnny and his team do their best to take care of your every need. They even provided meals a couple times a week that were healthy and amazing. It was great for my situation because I had my wife and our dog with us and we would of not been able to take the dog with us on base, but with MCP we were able to get a large room in a nicely furnished house with a great backyard for our dog. I would recommend MCP for anyone considering a lengthy TDY. Thanks Johnny and MCP team!" October 17, 2018, Randolph AFB
