Relocating as part of your Air Force career isn’t just about getting from one base to another—it’s a full-scale life transition. You’re not only moving your belongings but also shifting your family’s routine, your finances, and your future plans. The process can be overwhelming, especially when deadlines are tight and you’re balancing it with mission-critical responsibilities.
That’s where ARC Relocation comes in. We offer specialized Air Force relocation services designed to remove the stress and guesswork from your PCS. Whether you’re headed stateside or OCONUS, working with relocation professionals who understand the process from every angle makes all the difference.
What Are Air Force Relocation Services?
Every Permanent Change of Station (PCS) move comes with its own list of tasks—and its own challenges. From deciphering your PCS weight allowance and limits to arranging temporary housing and figuring out what’s reimbursable, it’s easy to fall behind before the real packing even begins.
Our Air Force relocation services are built to guide you through every step of the process. Whether you’re coordinating a Personally Procured Move (PPM), shipping a vehicle, or buying a home near your new base, we’re here to make sure nothing gets overlooked.
We know how fast things can move in the military, and how frustrating the red tape can be when you’re trying to keep your family’s life stable during a relocation.
Why Working With Military Relocation Professionals Matters
A military PCS isn’t like a civilian move. The stakes are higher, and the rules are stricter. If you miss a deadline, miscalculate your household goods weight, or pick the wrong vendor, it can cost you both time and money. Having a team of military relocation professionals in your corner helps eliminate those risks.
We understand military pay structures, entitlements, and timelines. Our team works directly with you and your chain of command to ensure everything is lined up, from orders to reimbursements to arrival.
Whether it’s your first PCS or your tenth, having expert support means you can focus on your family and your mission, not the paperwork.
What ARC Offers Air Force Families
At ARC Relocation, we don’t just coordinate moves; we offer full-spectrum relocation support customized for military life.
Military PCS Expertise Across All Bases
Our team has helped thousands of service members relocate to and from bases around the world. We know how to navigate housing policies, PCS weight allowance and limits, travel reimbursement forms, and base-specific moving logistics.
You won’t have to explain military acronyms or deadlines to us—we already speak the language.
Realtor Support and Rebate Program
Through our realtor rebate program, we connect you with experienced real estate agents who specialize in military relocations. These agents understand the urgency that comes with PCS orders. They’ll help you buy or sell quickly, and once the deal closes, you’ll receive a rebate check in the mail, sometimes worth thousands.
This program helps offset the hidden costs of a PCS and replaces older systems like the USAA Movers Advantage. Unlike some programs, ARC doesn’t take a cut, and this is cash back, plain and simple.
Whether you’re buying your first home or relocating from one duty station to another, this rebate puts real money back in your pocket.
Personally Procured Move (PPM) Assistance
If you’re choosing to move yourself under the PPM option, we can help you plan it out the right way. You’ll get access to trusted vendors and moving partners who work efficiently and meet government standards, so your reimbursement process doesn’t hit snags.
Many Air Force families opt for a PPM to gain flexibility or increase their payout. We’ll make sure the numbers work in your favor and that you stay compliant with military guidelines.
National Moving Network Access
From cross-country household shipments to vehicle transport, our network includes some of the best moving companies for the military. Every partner is vetted for quality, service, and compliance with DoD requirements. That way, you can trust that your belongings will arrive safely and on time, no matter where duty calls.
Temporary Housing and Area Guidance
Need help finding a rental or bridging the gap between duty stations? Our relocation experts can assist with temporary lodging, school research, and local market insights so your family settles in faster and with fewer surprises.
Even if you’re not buying a home, you still get access to our full support system.
How the ARC Realtor Rebate Program Works
One of the most popular benefits for military families working with ARC is our cash-back realtor rebate program for home buying or selling. When you work with one of our referred agents, you’ll receive a rebate after closing, often worth thousands of dollars, depending on the sale price.
It’s a straightforward way to save money during your PCS, especially when so many unexpected expenses pop up. The rebate is free to use, and it doesn’t affect your home’s price or your agent’s commission. You get your check in the mail after the sale wraps up—no strings attached.
This benefit is ARC’s answer to the now-discontinued USAA Movers Advantage Program. While that program helped many military families, ARC’s rebate goes even further by offering more flexibility and access to top-rated agents across the country.
Most of our Air Force clients use the rebate to cover closing costs, furnish their new home, or offset moving expenses. It’s a simple way to put money back in your hands while you adjust to your new station.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does ARC’s realtor rebate program work?
When you work with one of our referred agents to buy or sell a home, you receive a rebate check after closing. The amount depends on the final sale price, but most families save thousands. There’s no catch—it’s just our way of giving back to those who serve.
Can ARC help with an OCONUS move?
Yes. Whether you’re headed to Germany, Japan, or anywhere else outside the continental U.S., we’ll help with everything from customs paperwork to international shipping and language translation services.
What if I want to rent, not buy?
That’s not a problem. We work with real estate professionals who can help you find quality rentals near your new base. You’ll also still have access to our relocation services, including vendor referrals and moving support.
Can ARC help me understand my PCS weight allowance and limits?
Absolutely. We’ll walk you through your allowed weight based on rank and family size, help you stay under that limit, and coordinate your move so you avoid costly overage fees.
