FAQS

Military Moving Frequently Asked Questions

  • How much do military moves cost?

    For active-duty service members, most PCS (Permanent Change of Station) moves are covered by the military through government-contracted movers. If you opt for a Personally Procured Move (PPM), you’ll pay upfront for moving services or rentals, but the military reimburses you based on weight, distance, and rank. Some members break even, while others may receive a payout if they move under budget. Always check your weight allowance before making arrangements.

  • What items can’t be moved during a military PCS?

    Whether you're using government-contracted movers or doing a PPM, there are strict guidelines on prohibited items. Movers typically won’t transport:


    Ammunition or firearms not properly registered


    Hazardous materials (e.g., propane, paint, aerosols)


    Perishable food


    Open containers of liquid or cleaning supplies


    Live plants or animals

    Check with your Transportation Office (TO) for the most up-to-date list of restricted items before packing.

  • How far in advance should I schedule my military move?

    Military moves should be scheduled as soon as you receive official PCS orders. Ideally, book your move 6–8 weeks in advance, especially during peak PCS season (May–August). Early scheduling gives you the best chance of securing your preferred move date, especially if using government movers. For a PPM, advance planning helps you lock in truck or container rentals and manage logistics.

  • How should I prepare for my PCS move?

    Start by visiting your base’s Transportation Office (TO) or logging into the Defense Personal Property System (DPS) to initiate the process. Other key steps:


    Inventory and photograph your belongings


    Separate high-value or essential items (e.g., passports, uniforms, medications)


    Secure important documents and hand-carry them


    Label boxes clearly, especially by room


    Decide if you're going full-service, PPM, or a combo


    Arrange travel and lodging along your route

    Preparing early ensures a smoother transition, whether you're moving yourself or using a government-assigned company.

  • How do military movers protect your belongings during a PCS?

    Government-approved movers are required to follow strict packing and handling procedures. They use quality materials, properly wrap furniture, and load items to minimize shifting during transit. An inventory is taken at both pickup and delivery. In the event of damage or loss, service members can file claims through the DPS system for compensation.

  • What precautions are taken for fragile and valuable items during a military move?

    Fragile items like electronics, dishes, and collectibles are wrapped and boxed with padding by government movers. You can also request High-Value Inventory (HVI) documentation for particularly expensive or irreplaceable items. For added peace of mind, many service members choose to personally transport smaller valuables (e.g., jewelry, documents, medals) rather than include them in the main shipment.
