DH and I have been married for 4 years, together for 5 1/2 years, and he's been stationed at McChord AFB for SEVEN years! Well, we got our first set of orders... we're going to McGuire AFB.
Any insight about McGuire/Fort Dix? I know nothing about doing a military move, any info?
Thanks, ladies!
Re: We Got Orders!
This!! I make myself a moving folder each time. It is labeled "Moving to 2011" In it, I keep every single receipt from the move and any paperwork given to me by the movers. I also use a single sheet of paper and write down all the info for utilities being shut off, who I talked to, and what date they will be shut off. I also do this for all utilities being activated in the new place. I also put the phone numbers on the paper, too. It makes it much easier to contact them if there are any issues!
I also recommend making a list ahead of time of things you will be packing in the car with you. (Important documents, passports, paperwork on your engagement ring, etc.) I like to bring my jewelry box with me in case any boxes went missing. Good luck! We have moved a TON, so if you have any questions, let me know!
