Moving is never easy — but for military families, it can feel like a way of life. If you’re heading to or from Fort Bragg, you’re not alone. As one of the largest military installations in the world, Fort Bragg sees thousands of families relocate each year. At TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® of Fayetteville, we’ve helped many of them make that transition as smooth and stress-free as possible.
Whether this is your first PCS or your fifth, here’s what you should know about navigating your move — and how we can help.
Welcome to Fort Bragg: A Community Like No Other
Fort Bragg (still affectionately called that by many, despite the official name change to Fort Liberty) is more than just a base — it’s a hub of history, pride, and resilience. Nestled right next to Fayetteville, Fort Bragg is home to elite units like the 82nd Airborne Division and U.S. Army Special Operations.
With such a dynamic presence, it’s no surprise that the surrounding community is deeply military-friendly. Local businesses, schools, and services — including ours — are all geared to support military life.
Your PCS Checklist: Before, During, and After the Move
PCS moves come with a lot of moving parts — literally. Here are some essential tips we’ve learned from working with military families in Fayetteville:
Before the Move:
- Secure your dates early. Peak PCS season (May–August) books up fast.
- Purge what you don’t need. Every pound matters when you're moving under weight allowances.
- Keep paperwork handy. Orders, housing documents, and inventories should travel with you.
During the Move:
- Communicate clearly. Let us know about base access rules, pets, or special items.
- Use color-coded boxes. It makes unpacking easier in your new home.
- Take photos of valuables. Just in case you need to file a claim.
After the Move:
- Inspect everything. Make sure all boxes arrived and nothing was damaged.
- Explore the area. Fayetteville offers parks, museums, and great local food.
- Connect with support groups. Many military spouses find comfort and friendship through local networks.
