    Ok, so here's my situation:

    I'll be PCS'ing and doing a Personally Procured Move (PPM, or DITY) from Fort Stewart to Fort Huachuca in a few months. My 2nd gen V6 taco definitely can't tow my 7k+ pounds of stuff including my bike and home gym, so I want to tow a 6x12 with a couple thousand pounds of what I'll need immediately.

    For the rest of the 5k+lbs, I am planning on loading up a "u-pack" trailer, which is basically a tractor trailer on which I can reserve some space and pack/unload at my leisure.

    My question:

    Can I do this and get reimbursed for both parts of my move? Is this the most financially beneficial way of doing this move?

    Thanks and best of luck in your own journies.
