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. 

Including a Military Clause in Your Lease Agreement

Including a Military Clause in Your Lease Agreement

by | Feb 16, 2012 | , ,

Military relocation is a unique aspect of the rental side of the real estate market. Any one who has been waiting for a hard copy of orders knows that it makes it very difficult to search for housing at your next duty station. I am certain there is no shortage of military families that have stories about a last minute change of orders and the upheaval that ensued afterward. In fact, we recently received an email from one of our customers that was faced with a difficult situation due to a change of anticipated orders.

Field Problem: Tips for First-Time PCSer

by | May 2, 2011 | , ,

Dear, Field Problems:

I have been married to my husband for eight months. He has been in OSUT the last three months and will be graduating soon. He will be stationed at Fort Stewart, Georgia, right after graduation. and it will be our first duty station.

I am currently living in Illinois. I’d like to get advice or tips on moving (especially your first move) in the Army. I also have some general questions: What do you wish you had known before your first move? Should I go with him or stay here until he gets settled and then move there? Where do I find information on housing and communities in the area?

As we begin 2011, I want to start by wishing all my fellow military spouses a very happy new year. I hope 2011 brings you all the best. My new year has started off well. I have gotten myself organized and geared up for the year, but change is on the horizon.

Toward the end of 2010, my husband found out he would be going to recruiting school.

With Fresh Eyes

I was driving on post today in my usual rush-rush and turned down the street toward my house. All of a sudden, I was taken back to two years ago when we drove down that street for the first time, when the houses were all mysterious, and I didn’t know where we would live.

Field Problem: Getting Organized to Move

by | Feb 1, 2010 | , ,

Dear, Field Problems:

My husband and I just received orders to PCS. The move is very unexpected. He just returned from a deployment and our house is unorganized, to say the least. Even though we have PCS’d before, I am totally overwhelmed and have no idea where to start to get ready for the movers. Help!

Military spouses aren’t usually afforded the luxury of stability. We’re here one year and there the next. The friends we make tomorrow may not be there next week. Our happiness along this journey is often a “state of mind,” but here six things we can do to bloom where we’re planted.
