In order to have property moved from your Home of Record, you will need to provide a copy of your 4/1 from your enlistment packet and a copy of your orders. A DOD mandated briefing will need to be attended before movement of household goods start. You may attend this briefing at either your origin shipping office or Fort Campbell’s personal property office if you have already arrived.

If you are leaving Fort Campbell on PCS status and Fort Campbell is your first duty station, you will need to provide a copy of your orders. First time and last time movers are required to attend a DOD mandated briefing. These briefings are scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis with your orders at the personal property office. It is very important you contact the personal property office first before you proceed to do a Personally Procured Move.

As soon as you have orders in hand bring them to the personal property office. Do not wait for clearing papers or leave approval. You will be advised at the personal property office as to what the next step will be. No shipment will be booked without orders and signed DD1299 & DD1797. (Signed documents are not necessary for PPM moves requested.) Failure to provide personal property with your orders and signed documents upon receipt may result in delays in scheduling your pickup and/or PPM advance request. When choosing a date you would like your property picked up, be as flexible as possible. Although every effort will be made to obtain the dates you request, remember there are other factors that come into play. Factors include: how much advanced notice we have as well as carrier availability especially during peak season, which is usually between May-August.  DOD has moved to a seven day pickup spread window. When selecting your pickup dates, you will need to provide a seven consecutive day window for pickup. Pack dates will be adjusted based on the actual pickup date. Your dates are not finalized until you have confirmed them with your transportation service provider directly.

Personally procured move, also known as do it yourself move, allows you to be reimbursed by the government for moving your personal belongings yourself. PPM’s allow for a more flexible move option.

Any soldier regardless of rank, arriving and departing Fort Campbell can do a PPM. However, the transportation office must provide counseling and prior approval for a PPM move. Failing to comply with service requirements of the program may limit payment or result in complete denial of your claim.
