Choosing the Right Moving Option for Military Families

When your new assignment is more than 50 miles away or will last more than 20 weeks, you qualify for a PCS move. The military may cover your relocation through:

  • Household Goods Move (HHG): A government-contracted service that handles all logistics through a Transportation Service Provider (TSP).
  • Personally Procured Move (PPM): You manage the move and receive compensation equal to what the government would spend. Any savings you generate are yours to keep.

Using Go Mini's of San Antonio, TX for a PPM gives you both control and potential cost savings. Our portable containers make loading and unloading more manageable, while secure transportation and storage offer the confidence needed for such a significant transition.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What size container is best for my military move?

The ideal container size depends on how much you need to move. A 12-foot container works well for smaller homes or apartments. For mid-sized households, a 16-foot container typically provides enough space. Larger homes with five to seven rooms may require a 20-foot container to accommodate furniture, appliances, and household goods. Our team can assist you in selecting the right size based on your inventory and schedule.

San Antonio’s weather includes hot, humid summers and mild winters. High temperatures can damage sensitive items if not properly packed.

We recommend packing electronics, photographs, and wooden furniture with extra care to prevent warping or moisture-related damage during extreme weather.
