Advices for your transfer
As career soldiers, you are forced to change your place of residence regularly.
The administrative procedures specific to your profession and those related to your family or civil situation, make the situation complicated.
To avoid losing patience with this long list of things to do, Dossetto removals advise you to approach your military transfer with confidence.
Calculate the amount of your help
A move has a significant financial cost. As a soldier, you and your family can benefit from aid issued by the Ministry of Defense.
Thanks to them, the expenses related to your move will be refunded.
The right to volume
The 2007 reform ended the selection criterion according to the rank occupied by the soldier. From now on, it is his seniority that takes precedence. The military’s family (spouse and dependent children) is also recognized and taken into account in the calculation of the cubage right.
Two other criteria are also used for calclating remocal costs: the distance between the place of loading and unloading and the volume to be transported.
For information, the calculation of the rights for the Gendarmes remains unchanged. Fees are calculated according to the grade.
Do not hesitate to contact us, a sales representative will guide you on your rights.
