What is a PPM?
A Personally Procured Move (PPM), also known as a DITY (Do It Yourself) move, gives service members control over their PCS relocation. Instead of using a DoD-assigned mover, you manage your move and receive reimbursement.
Take Charge of Your Move
A PPM lets you take charge of your move instead of using a DoD-assigned company.
Benefits:
- Control Over Who Moves You
- Customized Moving Timeline
Flexible Moving Options
Align your move with your schedule. You can manage the entire process or handle part of it while using professional movers for the rest.
Your Choice:
- Complete DIY approach
- Partial professional assistance
Financial Advantage
Receive up to 100% of what the government would pay a contractor, potentially putting money back in your pocket while meeting your service branch's requirements.
Financial Benefits:
- Potential for Additional Reimbursement
- Cost-effective when properly managed
PPM vs. Government Move: What's the Difference?
