Scheduling Your Household Goods Pick-up
Traffic Management Office (TMO) customers utilize the Defense Personal Property System (DPS), an automated system developed to help simplify the move process and initiate Household Goods movement. As a DoD Customer, DPS allows you to have 24-hour access to its many features such as online counseling, claims settlement, and shipment tracking.
All personnel are required to create a DPS account at https://www.militaryonesource.mil/moving-housing/moving/pcs-and-military-moves/
You can do this prior to having a movement order. Check out the FAQ (Frequently asked questions) on the "Resources page" under "moving resources" to become familiar with the program/get helpful tips how to plan your move and the "Quick Reference Guide" in the upper right-hand corner of the DPS landing page for tutorials on how to perform specific tasks in DPS.
You are not required to accomplish the DPS Self Counseling if you fall into any of the below categories:
-First move
-Retiring/separating (military only)
-Putting Property into Non-Temporary Storage (NTS)
-Moving from off-base to on-base housing (local move)
-Student travel
Pls visit our office during our customer walk in hours with 3 copies of your orders to initiate the process or email a copy of your orders to our PPPO org box: 86lrs.lgrdppo@us.af.mil
For all other personnel, you are required to accomplish Self Counseling in DPS - pls see attached "TIPS from TMO"
After you finished your shipment(s) in DPS, email our work center org box at 86lrs.lgrdppo@us.af.mil with a copy of your orders and DD Form per each shipment. Or bring those items to our office during walk-in hours. Do not wait to schedule your shipments until you receive your port call. During peak season your requested date might not be available anymore. Schedule your pick-up outside your port call window to avoid conflicting bookings.
**TMO DOES NOT KNOW ABOUT YOUR SHIPMENTS IN DPS UNTIL YOU NOTIFY OUR OFFICE.**
Your shipments will NOT be booked until you attend a TMO briefing and sign all necessary paperwork.
