PCS

If you are PCSing this year, then you’ve come to the right place!

Here at Mission: Milspouse, we’ve faced our fair share of relocations, DITYs, government moves, overseas stints, and everything in between. We’ve been there and done that, and we have the stickers to prove it.

With all that experience, we know how stressful it can be. Packing and loading mean moving all of your belongings—special things, irreplaceable things—and none of us really want things broken or damaged. While we can’t ensure there won’t be casualties of PCS, we can help you prepare to make the move a little smoother.

Check out all of our blog post pertaining to all things PCS. Get ready for some practical tips AND insight into experiences of those who have been there, moved that.

Forever in Ziplocks and Totes

If you walk into a military family’s home during a PCS, you will find a good portion of their belongings squished into Ziplock bags, or stuffed into large, plastic totes. These items are an absolute necessity to keep liquids from leaking, and objects to remain clean, protected, organized, and maybe even color-coded. I sincerely love Ziplocks and totes! I can’t imagine my life without the use of them…because they are not only a necessity during our PCSes, but they are also still a part of my daily life.

I miraculously survived a road trip recently, where I, alone, took my four children to visit family and friends. We traveled through eight different states, stretching roughly 2,810 miles (not including the miles in between to pull off and use the travel potty, take an off-route break for gas and food, and visit extra family and friends outside of the main destinations) and we took 18 days to do it all.

Always the New One

Always the New One

“Hi, I’m new.” I can’t keep count on how many times I have said that in my married life. I’m sure you can relate. As a servicemember’s spouse who has moved numerous times, you find yourself in many new circles. You make introductions and small talk, it comes around to you, with a little hand raise you chime in “…and I’m the new one!”

What Military Home Buyers Want to See in Your Home Ad

If you’re selling a home near a military installation, you may think that, in light of the continued sellers’ market, all you need to do is clean your home, get it on the market, and voilà!… you’ll be signing closing paperwork. But there’s so much more when it comes to home selling and setting your home listing apart from others! The key is to think like a home buyer and provide the information they’re looking for when home shopping. We took a poll on social media and are sharing a few features military home buyers say they want to see in a property for sale, beyond the basic info like number of bedrooms, baths, garage size, and storage space.
