Overseas pcs

Does the military have to move you or can you do a dity? Not us, for a friend :)

We are in Hawaii which is considered OCONUS. We let the military do it. Not sure if you can Dity. I would be wary about it just based on the costs of shipping your household goods and car. :)

Never heard of anyone ever doing a DITY overseas.  (ie, to and from an overseas location)  While overseas, that's a different story (moving on base to off base, etc...)

I've never heard of it, but maybe?

I don't see how that would work without being VERY expensive.

I didn't think DItY was an option unless you were staying stateside.

I could see possibly doing a DITY to Alaska, but I never would. I think it would end up being really expensive.

I knew someone who did a city from Hawaii. They "rented" one of those large containers from Matson. Packed it and had Matson come pick it up and ship it..said it cost them a couple thousand for the whole thing, but they made bank on their DITY money when they turned in all their paperwork.? So, in essence it is very possible. Also, POD
s work too...

I know a couple people who did it from Hawaii using POD...don't know if POD actually does like Europe or Asia... But im sure like PP it can be done thru, say Matson and pay a bunch up front

We're pcs-ing to Hawaii in September! Where are you stationed at? We'll be at K-bay.

Schofield Barracks. :) We have been here for over three years now. Very pretty island.
