Personal property shipment rules change

By Airman 1st Class Austin Harvill 633rd Air Base Wing Public Affairs

All continental Personal Property Processing Offices must receive notification five-weeks in advance for all shipments. This does not apply to shipments prior to June 29.

Shipments requiring a pick-up within three weeks must coordinate with the local Joint Personal Property Shipping Office prior to contacting the PPPO.

Individuals that chose self-counseling with the Defense Property System will only complete their counseling session after the PPPO receives signed copies of Department of Defense forms 1299 and 1797, as well as a complete copy of orders. Without submission of these forms, a transportation service provider will not be assigned to pick up personal property.

For more information, call the Langley Air Force Base PPPO at 757-764-7868.
