The recruit depot's neighborhoods are our neighborhoods

MCRD sits wedged between the airport and the harbor, and the people stationed there settle close: Liberty Station's converted naval-training-center blocks, Point Loma's hillside streets, Ocean Beach rentals, and the Midway district's apartment stock. Every one of those is standing weekly work for our crews — including OB's famously tight parking and Point Loma's sloped driveways.

Moves touching the depot itself or military housing get the access details handled early. We coordinate commercial vehicle sponsorship with you before move day; background-checked, uniformed employees and a registered company truck keep that process short.

PPM support and straight paperwork

For staff executing a PPM, the reimbursement lives and dies on documentation: certified scale tickets empty and loaded, an itemized invoice, and a licensed carrier behind both. We arrange the weighing near your route, build invoices the way finance offices want them, and our numbers verify cleanly — CAL T-192729, USDOT 3801918, BBB A+ rated, 25,120+ moves since 2008.

If a drill cycle or orders shuffle your dates, we reschedule without a penalty. The move bends around the mission, not the other way.

Priced for the peninsula, scheduled for the Corps

Everything is hourly with fuel itemized, active-duty pricing applies at booking, and written quotes land within one business hour. Early starts fit before duty days, and if your next set of orders sends you beyond San Diego, our long distance crews run dedicated trucks with real delivery dates — one crew, door to door.

FAQ

MCRD San Diego Moving questions, answered.

Do you cover Liberty Station, Point Loma, and Ocean Beach?
Weekly. Those neighborhoods — including OB's tight parking and Point Loma's hills — are standing work for our crews, and travel is itemized in the written quote.
Do you handle government-booked PCS moves?
If your PCS is government-arranged, the military assigns the carrier and you do not choose. Where we come in is the PPM option, where you hire your own mover and get reimbursed based on documented weight, plus local moves on and off base, housing-to-housing shuffles, and moves the government is not paying for.
Can you help with PPM weight tickets and paperwork?
Yes. Reimbursement on a personally procured move is based on certified scale weights, empty and loaded. We help arrange the weighing at a certified scale near your route and provide the itemized invoice your finance office expects, backed by a licensed carrier: CAL T-192729, USDOT 3801918.
Can you work around a drill instructor's schedule?
Yes — early starts, weekend slots, and free rescheduling when the cycle or orders move your dates. Tell us the constraints and we build the move around them.
What if my next duty station is outside San Diego?
Our long distance service runs dedicated trucks with one crew door-to-door and a real delivery date — and for a PPM, the same weight-ticket and invoice support applies.
