HOW A NORFOLK PPM WORKS — AND WHERE YOUR MONEY IS
A PPM (Personally Procured Move, the new name for a DITY) means you move yourself and the government pays you. Spend less than they would have paid, and you keep the difference.
Here is where that difference lives:
YOUR REIMBURSEMENT
You are paid up to 100% of what the government would have paid to move you.
Spend less, keep the rest.
You can request an advance through your transportation office to cover the truck, fuel, and labor up front — so you don't float the whole move on your own card.
YOUR WEIGHT TICKETS
You get paid on your certified empty and full weight.
Your weigh-in is the heart of your claim.
Watch out: DPS auto-emails you if it thinks you are over your weight allowance — but that email does not count every deduction you are owed.
Don't panic and don't eat a cost you don't owe.
Confirm your real final weight with the Norfolk office before it cuts your payout.
YOUR ENTITLEMENTS
Ask your office about TLE (Temporary Lodging Expense) for hotel costs.
Ask about DLA (Dislocation Allowance) for relocation.
This is money families leave on the table when they don't ask.
YOUR LABOR COST
Every dollar you don't overspend stays yours.
At $75 a mover, you get real loading muscle without handing your spread to a full-service outfit.

WHERE TO START YOUR PPM
Your move runs through DPS (Defense Personal Property System).
That is where you schedule the move, upload documents, and file for your payout.

WHY NORFOLK MILITARY FAMILIES CALL US
The government move system has burned a lot of families — missed pickups, late shipments, damaged goods, money out of pocket that never came back. More service members go PPM to keep control of their own move.
We get it because we have lived it.
MVMP (Military Veterans Moving People) is veteran-owned and veteran-led, run with veterans and civilian moving professionals on the crew. We understand a report-no-later-than date. We understand a peak-season DPS backlog. We understand doing this with your family watching the clock.
We show up on time.
We load it right.
You keep your spread.

🗣️ People Ask Us:
Q: How much does PPM moving labor cost in Norfolk?
➡️ $75 per mover, per hour, with a 3-hour minimum. You choose how many movers and hours based on your load. The deposit is one hour at your booked rate and applies to your total on move day.
Q: Do you load PODS and rental trucks for a DITY move?
➡️ Yes. We load and unload U-Haul, Penske, Budget rental trucks, PODS containers, and trailers. Loading only, unloading only, or both — your call.
Q: Will hiring loading labor hurt my PPM reimbursement?
➡️ No. On a PPM you keep the difference between what you spend and the government's constructed cost. Affordable labor that loads tight helps you keep more, not less. Keep your receipts for your move paperwork.
Q: Can you help if I'm moving INTO Norfolk, not out?
➡️ Yes. We unload your inbound truck or container at your new Norfolk home or base housing, same $75 per mover rate.
Q: How fast can you get a crew out?
➡️ Call or text 757-330-0008. During PCS season dates fill quickly, so lock your crew as early as you have your move window.
Expert Tip: Book your loading crew the day you reserve your truck or container — not the week of the move. The families who keep the most on a PPM are the ones who plan the labor early and load complete the first time.
