Is it time for a military move? Have you gotten notice of a Permanent Change of Station? If yes, you’ve got a lot to do and plan for. As someone active in the military, you’re probably no stranger to moving from one place to another. But if you’re relatively new to the PCS process, don’t worry – we’ve got you covered. Here’s everything you need to know for a seamless military base transition.
Travel
The military provides travel for you and your family and dependents. It includes transportation to your new station either by plane, train, or automobile. They will provide the ticket or the money to make the trip from your old station to your new one. You’ll also get money for meals and lodging, depending on the length of the trip and the number of travel days.
Moving Your Household
The government covers the cost of your household move using a weight limit based on your current rank and your family size and situation. It often includes the cost of shipping or storing your vehicle. It’s important to choose a reliable moving company with experience in military moves. There’s a specific process and paperwork that goes along with PCS, and an inexperienced company could make the move more difficult than it needs to be.
