Shawn, Chris and Gio were Excellent!! They work hard all day went to a warehouse first and then to the Town Home on second floor! They carefully handle things all the time and they took care as they were their own!! I completely recommend Kentuckiana Moving!

Dakota, Scott, and Coleman were a great group of guys to get us moved to our new place! They kept us informed and showed up on time. Super efficient and even managed to get everything we wanted moved plus some other items in one trip! Saved us some time and kept all of our stuff safe. Would recommend and definitely will use again if we move.

Ross, Ty, Corn, Brandon and Shawn are the best. They were fast and efficient. They had to move it into a storage unit. Quite a few people said it wouldn’t all fit but they packed that unit expertly to the very brim. I’ll update in a few months when they have to move it all to the new house.

Military life often requires frequent relocations, which can be both exciting and challenging for service members and their families. Moving to a new duty station, whether across the country or overseas, requires meticulous planning and organization to ensure a smooth transition.
At Kentuckiana Moving, we understand the unique demands of military moves and are proud to support service members and their families with reliable, stress-free moving services. This guide offers essential tips to help you prepare for your next move while keeping your transition as seamless as possible.
A military move typically comes with short timelines and specific requirements, so staying organized is crucial.
Create a Moving Binder: Use a binder or digital folder to store all important documents, such as orders, housing paperwork, and inventory lists.
Make a Checklist: Outline all tasks, including notifying your current landlord, arranging transportation, and updating your address with necessary institutions.
Track Deadlines: Pay close attention to key dates for pack-outs, transportation, and reporting to your new duty station.
Kentuckiana Moving offers flexible scheduling to align with your military orders, ensuring a seamless process.
Service members relocating under Permanent Change of Station (PCS) orders are eligible for government-funded moving benefits.
Know Your Options: Military members can choose a government-managed move, a Personally Procured Move (PPM), or a combination of both.
Reimbursements: If you opt for a PPM, track all moving-related expenses to ensure proper reimbursement.
Weight Allowances: Be mindful of the weight limit for household goods, as exceeding it may result in additional costs.
Kentuckiana Moving can provide an accurate estimate of your move’s weight, helping you stay within budget.
Having a detailed inventory of your belongings simplifies packing, unpacking, and insurance claims.
Document Items: List all your possessions, noting their condition and value.
Take Photos: Photograph valuable or fragile items as a precaution in case of damage during the move.
Separate Essentials: Pack a “first-night box” with items you’ll need immediately upon arrival, such as toiletries, uniforms, and important documents.
Packing efficiently can make a significant difference during a move.
Purge Before You Pack: Donate or discard items you no longer need to reduce clutter and stay under your weight limit.
Label Boxes Clearly: Include your name, destination address, and room location on each box to simplify unpacking.
Use Color Coding: Assign a color to each room and use matching labels on boxes for quick identification.
Protect Fragile Items: Use high-quality packing materials to safeguard delicate items during transit.
Kentuckiana Moving offers professional packing services to handle everything from fragile heirlooms to bulky furniture.
Settling into a new location can feel overwhelming, but proactive planning can ease the transition.
Research the Area: Learn about local amenities, schools, healthcare providers, and recreational opportunities near your new base.
Connect with Resources: Utilize base services like the Relocation Assistance Program (RAP) and Military OneSource for support.
Meet Your Neighbors: Building a sense of community can make your new location feel like home.
Keeping important documents and finances in order ensures a smooth relocation.
Secure Important Papers: Carry copies of your military orders, identification, passports, and medical records with you.
Update Accounts: Notify banks, credit card companies, and insurance providers of your address change.
Review Housing Contracts: Understand the lease terms or mortgage requirements at your new duty station.
Moving frequently as a military family comes with unique challenges, which is why working with experienced movers can make a big difference.

Flexible Services: From full-service packing to secure storage, we tailor our services to meet your specific needs.
Commitment to Care: We understand the importance of protecting your belongings and ensuring your family feels supported throughout the process.

What should I pack in a “first-night box”?
Include essentials such as toiletries, a change of clothes, important documents, medications, and basic kitchen items.
How can I reduce stress during a military move?

What happens if my weight limit is exceeded?
The military may charge you for excess weight, so it’s important to declutter and stick to essential items.
