What is a DITY move (PPM) and can Sparkle Moving Services help?

A DITY (Do It Yourself) move, now called a Personally Procured Move (PPM), lets service members arrange and manage their own household goods shipment and receive reimbursement from the government based on the official weight of goods moved. Sparkle Moving Services can assist with your PPM by providing professional loading, transport, and delivery — you keep the cost savings.

Do you offer a military discount?

Yes. Sparkle Moving Services offers a 10% discount to all active duty military, veterans, and military family members. Simply mention your military status when booking and present a valid military ID on move day.

What weight allowances apply for Fort Bliss PCS moves?

Military weight allowances for household goods depend on rank and dependency status. For example, an E-5 with dependents is authorized up to 8,000 lbs, while an O-3 with dependents is authorized up to 13,500 lbs. Contact your Fort Bliss PPSO (Personal Property Shipping Office) at (915) 568-9990 or visit move.mil for your specific entitlements.

When is the best time to schedule a PCS move at Fort Bliss?

Peak PCS season at Fort Bliss runs from May through August. During this period moving companies book up quickly — we recommend scheduling at least 3–4 weeks in advance. For off-peak moves (September through April), 1–2 weeks notice is usually sufficient. Call (915) 261-1095 as soon as your orders are confirmed.
