Household Goods

"Quick-Ship"

Pompeii

Unaccompanied Baggage, better known as your express shipment or quick-ship, will be the first of your belongs that you will receive upon arriving in Naples. If sent by air, this shipment can be expected to arrive in the Naples area within 30-45 days.  Please note, the weight of your quick-ship will be included in the total weight amount allowed for your rank. You are allowed 1000 pounds maximum for your quick-ship, and no furniture is allowed other than baby furniture (crib, playpen, etc.). Your household goods will take much longer to arrive in Naples, so you will want to pack everything that you will definitely need upon your arrival. I will give suggestions below of what to pack. With the combination of your quick-ship and loaner furniture supplied by the government, you will be able to move into your new home on the economy as soon as agreed upon with your landlord. Believe me, you will be ready to leave the TLA Hotel.

When you have your appointment with Personal Property Transportation Office you want to set up a date to have your quick-ship packed and shipped. Please note that it takes approximately six weeks for your quick-ship to get here, depending on where it's shipped from, and the time of the year. We transferred in from Norfolk, VA in October, and our shipment took just about 7 weeks.

Your quick-ship is normally transported by airplane, vice your household goods shipment by sea. Take this into consideration when planing what to pack.
