How old is this chart? When our family moved on PCS orders 2 years ago, we were told that our weight limit was 15000 lbs. This chart says that our weight limit is less than that. The link that you posted above also states that our weight limit is less than that.
Hi Stefanie,
This chart is from 2010. Did you look at the side with W/Dependents or without? I should mention that in some case location can determine the weight limit as well.
i just received orders to travel to germany where my husband is stationed. my question is who do i contact in regards to the shipping of household goods.
Ask your husband to visit the Transportation office at his current base and see if they can direct him from there. In most cases your local closest post or base should be able to set up the shipping arrangements for you.
We are 400 pound over our weight allowance! Do you happen to know what the cost will be for this overage? Do you have a price/chart breakdown for these charges? Thank You.
