If you’re stationed at Camp Lejeune or MCAS New River and facing a PCS move, you need a moving company that understands military relocations, not just one that shows up with a truck. Move Fidelity has served the military community in Eastern North Carolina for over 70 years, and our New Bern location puts us within easy reach of Jacksonville, Camp Lejeune, and MCAS New River.
Why Military Moves Require a Specialist
A military PCS move isn’t like a civilian relocation. You’re working with Government Bills of Lading (GBL), DD Form 1299, DP3 program entitlements, and strict weight allowances tied to your rank. One mistake in the paperwork can delay your move, result in charges you shouldn’t owe, or leave belongings stranded at a holding facility.
Move Fidelity is a DOD-approved and government-approved moving company. Our team knows the military move process from start to finish, including how to coordinate directly with your Transportation Management Office (TMO) and ensure your shipment arrives on time and within entitlement. Learn more about our dedicated military moving services and what sets us apart from standard movers.
Serving Camp Lejeune and MCAS New River
Camp Lejeune is home to II Marine Expeditionary Force, Marine Forces Command, and tens of thousands of Marines and sailors. MCAS New River, just adjacent to the base, supports Marine aviation units. Both installations see a high volume of PCS orders year-round, and both are within the primary service area of our New Bern location at 600 US Hwy 70, just 30 minutes away.
Whether you’re moving onto base housing, into Jacksonville, or PCS’ing out of the area entirely to a new duty station, Move Fidelity handles:
• HHG (Household Goods) shipments coordinated with your TMO
• PPM/DITY moves with proper weight ticket documentation
• Short-term and long-term storage in our 160,000+ sq ft climate-controlled facility
• Specialty item handling, including vehicles, electronics, and firearms (per DOD guidelines)
• Overseas/international moves for service members PCS’ing outside the continental US
If you’re relocating within the Jacksonville area, our team also provides full-service moving services in Jacksonville, NC. For those heading further out of the region, we offer reliable long-distance moving to any new duty station across the country.
