Naval Supply Systems Command Global Logistics Support (NAVSUP GLS) advises Sailors and family members that peak season for household goods (HHG) moves will run from May 15 to August 31 this year. Sailors expecting to move during this time should prepare as early as possible. This year is especially critical due to permanent change of station (PCS) orders being issued later than normal. Ideally, Sailors will have the online application almost complete and be ready to review and submit immediately upon receiving PCS orders. To start the process, visit the Navy Household Goods/Personal Property website to review various "how-to" guides for using the Defense Personal Property System (DPS) and basic entitlement information. Then, visit Move.mil to obtain a login and password for DPS and start your application.
