Household Goods

To help customers access moving resources more easily, Move.mil has moved to the Military OneSource website. Now, moving resources from the Defense Personal Property Program and Military OneSource are available on the Military OneSource website.

Visit the Moving Your Personal Property page on MilitaryOneSource.mil for comprehensive moving information, resources and services. Access content from the former Move.mil website, including moving guides and tips, videos and FAQs, entitlement brochures, household goods shipment logistics, DPS log in and more. There are also links for retiring and separating members, specific service branch information and comprehensive relocation assistance.

As soon as you receive your permanent change of station orders, it’s important to begin scheduling your move. The Defense Personal Property System, or DPS, is the online system you can use to request and manage your household goods shipment(s). For more information and a DPS log in link, visit the Moving Your Personal Property page on MilitaryOneSource.mil.

Military OneSource can make your move easier with helpful tips, resources and hands-on information related to moving with pets and more.

Leaving Fort Riley
Do not call the transportation office for an appointment. It is a walk in basis. Do not wait until
you get clearing papers. Having household item pickup dates decided prior to receiving your
orders will speed up the process at Transportation. It is highly suggested that you visit Move.mil
and register, this can be done without a CAC card from any computer.
