Military Moving

Military Moving in Florida and Georgia

Orders rarely arrive on a convenient timeline, and PCS season does not slow down for anyone. Top Notch Pro Movers works alongside service members and their families to get Personally Procured Moves (PPMs), also known as DITY moves, done right the first time — with the weight tickets, timelines, and reimbursement paperwork handled the way your transportation office expects. From MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa to Fort Moore in Columbus, our crews understand report dates and know how to plan around them.

As one of the most established movers in Florida and Georgia, we handle far more than PCS relocations. If you need a dependable local moving company in Florida for a short-distance move on or off base, a specialist in residential moving in Florida for a family settling into a new duty station, or one of the commercial movers in Florida businesses turn to for office and unit relocations, our team is ready to give you a straightforward quote and a moving date that actually holds.

What Is a PPM (Personally Procured Move)?

A Personally Procured Move, commonly called a PPM or DITY (Do-It-Yourself) move, lets a service member arrange and pay for their own household goods shipment instead of relying on a government-assigned carrier through the Defense Personal Property System (DPS). The government then reimburses the service member based on what it would have cost to ship the same weight through a government contract, which means a well-planned PPM can put money back in your pocket at the end of a PCS.

The trade-off is that a PPM puts the packing, loading, weight documentation, and scheduling in your hands — or in the hands of a moving company you hire to do the physical labor while you stay in control of the process. That is where Top Notch Pro Movers comes in. We handle the packing, the heavy lifting, and the certified weight tickets your transportation office will ask for, so your reimbursement paperwork is accurate and your report date is never in jeopardy

Serving Florida and Georgia’s Military Communities

Florida and Georgia sit at the center of one of the busiest military corridors in the country. Florida alone is home to 21 military installations and a sizable veteran and active-duty population, while Georgia’s thirteen major installations support more than 64,000 active-duty personnel and roughly 600,000 veterans statewide. That density means PCS season brings real competition for moving trucks, crews, and appointment windows — booking early matters more here than in most states.

We regularly support relocations to and from installations including:

  • MacDill Air Force Base (Tampa, FL) — headquarters for U.S. Central Command and U.S. Special Operations Command
  • Naval Air Station Jacksonville — one of the largest naval air installations in the country, with tens of thousands of active-duty and civilian personnel
  • Naval Air Station Pensacola — the “Cradle of Naval Aviation,” graduating tens of thousands of students each year
  • Naval Station Mayport and Patrick Space Force Base along Florida’s coast
  • Eglin Air Force Base and Hurlburt Field in the Florida Panhandle
  • Fort Moore (formerly Fort Benning), Columbus, GA — supports well over 100,000 military members, families, and civilian employees
  • Fort Stewart, Hinesville, GA — Georgia’s largest Army installation and home to the 3rd Infantry Division
  • Robins Air Force Base, Warner Robins, GA — a major Air Force logistics and maintenance hub
  • Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay, St. Marys, GA
  • Fort Gordon (Fort Eisenhower), Augusta, GA

My name is Ronni. I called TNP Movers for a last-minute move. I happen to speak with Rimsey B., the owner. He surprisingly had a client cancel, and was able to fit me in for my move from Fairfax VA to Oxen Hill MD. Rimsey and his team were all nice, patient, and quick! They even gave me some additional help on a second day! As a single woman moving, I felt safe, my items were in safe hands/good condition, and they made me feel comfortable and very appreciative. So if you need to move in the DMV area (and some out-of-state moves), you definitely should call TNPMovers to handle your move!

Amazing service! The team moved a one bedroom apartment’s worth of items in only 2 hours, which was WAY faster than I was expecting. Will definitely be reaching out to them again for any future moves.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about moving with Top Notch Pro Movers.

A PCS (Permanent Change of Station) move happens when a service member receives orders to relocate to a new duty station. It can involve a government-arranged shipment, a Personally Procured Move (PPM), or a combination of both, and it typically comes with a firm report date that the move needs to work around.
They are the same thing under two different names. DITY (Do-It-Yourself) is the older, informal term; PPM (Personally Procured Move) is the current official terminology used by the Defense Personal Property System. Either way, it means arranging your own move instead of using a government-assigned carrier, and you can hire a company like Top Notch Pro Movers to handle the physical labor while you manage the paperwork.
Yes. We assist service members with packing, loading, weight documentation, transportation, and unloading for PPM and partial PPM moves throughout Florida and Georgia, including moves near MacDill AFB, NAS Jacksonville, NAS Pensacola, Fort Moore, Fort Stewart, and Robins Air Force Base.
Both. We coordinate local moves within Florida and Georgia as well as long-distance and interstate relocations for families receiving out-of-state orders. Our team plans the route, transportation, and delivery window around your report date.
As soon as you receive your orders. PCS season brings heavy demand across Florida and Georgia's military corridor, and booking early gives you first pick of moving dates and crew availability rather than settling for whatever is left close to your report date.
