<p dir="ltr">Just got PCS orders and this is our first military move with two kids and a full household. The whole process feels overwhelming already. Any advice on where to start or what to actually watch out for?

Start by figuring out your weight allowance and whether you want a government move or the PPM option. Get your dates locked in as early as possible because everything else depends on that timeline

Military moves have enough variables that going in without a plan makes it harder than it needs to be. The government move vs PPM decision has real financial implications depending on your household size and distance. Storage, transit coverage, and how specialty items are handled are all worth knowing before you commit. I went throughhttps://purereloservices.com/service/military-moving/ when planning a PCS and it covers the main things to have sorted before move day. Biggest thing people miss is the damage claim window. Document everything before it goes on the truck
