I would highly recommend using this company for a long distannce or local move. Driver was excellent, crew to extreme caution to make no damages, helped tremendously! TY!
This recent move was the eigth long distance move I have made over the years. In comparison, Wheaton was above and beyond all of the others in every aspect. From my initial contact for a quote, to the packing, loading and unloading of my goods, they showed extreme care and professionalism.
Wheaton is a Quality Moving Company. They are a perfect example of being customer focused. It starts from the estimate process, where they are sure they understand your specific needs/timelines and any complexities. Totally organized, explain the details of each step (pack/Pickup/move/delivery expectations) so there are no surprises. In addition to the regular communication with the movers on the ground, the corporate office checks in regularly to make sure everything is going as planned and if you have any questions. Great Experience and HIGHLY recommended for the easiest local move to the most complex split & long-distance moves. They work hard for you!
The men who brought out possessions from CA worked quickly and efficiently and packed things that we hadn’t considered. On arrival in MT , the unpacking and putting things where we want them was done in the same manner as the packing. They all knew what they were doing. This was the first time moving for us. We were informed about time and had great communication with the others who set up, took inventory and monitored the whole process. We used Wheaton because of recommendation from others. A special thanks goes to Renay.
We recently moved from Austin to Tennessee and used Wheaton for our move. I was beyond impressed with the professionalism of every person I worked with during the entire process. Our move coordinator, Jennifer Cruz was amazing and kept us informed during the entire move process and our driver, Daniel was also amazing and kept us up to date when he was arriving at our home to load our furniture and contents and kept us updated prior to delivery here in Tennessee. It was wonderful to work with Wheaton during our move. Highly recommend!
I hired Wheaton Van Lines to move furniture cross country after selling the family home. All items 70 to 200 years old and fragile. They did a fantastic job and everything arrived in great condition. A special thanks to Jose Garcia and his son Oscar, who packed, loaded, drove and unloaded my belongings. Jose and Oscar are first rate!
Wheaton takes the worry out of having two tons of priceless photos and other memorabilia delivered to your mother, nearly 3K miles away!
Wheaton World Wide Moving moved our family from Indianapolis area to South Carolina. Their quote was competitive and fair. The movers were polite, professional, and took great care with all our belongings—the move included a baby grand piano. They were very hard workers. If you need moving services locally or cross-country, I highly recommend Wheaton.
Protect Your Reimbursement With the Right PPM Support
Some service members choose to take a more hands-on role in their relocation through a PPM (Personally Procured Move), formerly called a DITY (Do It Yourself Move). While this option can offer greater control, it also places more responsibility on you. You’re managing transportation, tracking weight, organizing documentation, and making sure everything aligns with reimbursement requirements. That’s a lot to carry on top of preparing for a new assignment.
As an experienced military moving company, Wheaton understands the structure behind PPM moves and helps you stay aligned with military PCS entitlements. We coordinate your interstate transportation carefully and provide the documentation you need to support your reimbursement submission, including:
- Certified empty and full weight tickets
- A detailed shipment inventory
- A signed bill of lading
- Itemized receipts for services provided
- A written, not-to-exceed estimate before your move begins
That written estimate gives you clarity up front. The price we provide is the price you pay; there are no hidden fees or unexpected adjustments that could complicate your reimbursement paperwork.
A PPM move gives you control. Wheaton provides the thorough support that gives you confidence, compliance, and clear documentation from start to finish.
Military Moving Services That Support You and Your Family
When orders come through, planning your military move goes beyond transportation. From understanding your costs to protecting your household goods and adjusting to changing timelines, every part of your interstate move matters.
Wheaton coordinates all the services you need along the way. Whether you’re looking for full-service support or specific help with packing, storage, or documentation, we are the military moving company that delivers steady guidance and reliable solutions for you and your family.
Moving Estimates
Every confident move starts with a clear understanding of cost. Wheaton offers both in-home and virtual moving estimates, giving you flexibility based on your schedule and location.
During the estimate, we review your household goods, discuss your timeline, and answer your questions. You’ll then receive a written, not-to-exceed price before your move is booked. That transparency helps you plan responsibly when you’re coordinating a PPM move where documentation and budgeting are critical.
Full-Service Moves
If you’re balancing training, travel, or family responsibilities, a full-service interstate move can remove a significant burden.
Wheaton coordinates the packing, loading, transportation, and delivery of your household goods through our experienced agent network. You’ll work with one dedicated move coordinator who keeps communication clear and consistent throughout the process. Detailed inventories and careful handling create accountability at every stage.
You focus on preparing for your next assignment. We handle the logistics.
Packing Services
Proper packing protects both your belongings and your peace during the moving process.
Our professional packing services are designed to safeguard everything from everyday household goods to high-value and specialty items.
Trained crews use quality materials and proven techniques to minimize risk during long-distance transit. If you’re completing a PPM move, a professional packing service also provides accurate inventories and organized documentation. Whether you need full packing or partial assistance, we handle it for you.
Storage
Military timelines don’t always line up perfectly.
Reporting dates, housing availability, or travel plans can create gaps between pickup and delivery.
Flexible storage adds an extra layer of stability during a time of transition. Wheaton coordinates short-term and long-term storage options within our secure network facilities. If your schedule changes, your move plan can adjust with it without adding confusion or uncertainty.
Boxes and Supplies
If you’re handling some or all of your own packing, you should know that interstate moves place more stress on your belongings than a short, local relocation. Strong boxes and proper packing supplies help prevent damage and keep everything organized from pickup through delivery.
Wheaton can provide durable moving boxes and essential supplies suited for long-distance transportation. Using consistent, high-quality materials also supports clearer inventories and smoother handling along the way.
Valuation/Protection
Long-distance moves cover many miles.
Understanding how your belongings are protected along the way is an important part of planning.
Wheaton clearly explains your valuation coverage options so you can make informed decisions about your household goods. We believe you should feel confident, not uncertain, about how your items are protected during transit.

In a PPM, you take responsibility for arranging transportation and submitting documentation for reimbursement. A military moving company like Wheaton supports service members who choose a PPM by coordinating interstate transportation and providing organized paperwork to help meet reimbursement requirements.
Reimbursement depends on accurate weight tickets, approved transportation methods, and complete documentation. Missing or incorrect paperwork can delay payment. Working with an experienced military moving company helps ensure you receive certified empty and full weight tickets, a signed bill of lading, and itemized receipts. Having clear, organized records protects what you’re entitled to receive.

Clear communication upfront supports better decisions later.
Transit time depends on distance, shipment size, and scheduling factors. During the estimate process, you’ll receive an overview of projected pickup and delivery windows so you can plan accordingly. Because military timelines are firm, proactive communication is essential. Clear expectations help reduce stress during the transition.
