PCS orders to or from Camp Pendleton?
Quick answer: Camp Pendleton movers from Hulk Movers handle privately booked moves for Marines, sailors and their families: into or out of base housing, to off-base homes in Oceanside, Vista and Fallbrook, and PCS moves out of state. You book us directly; we are not part of the government's household goods program.
Camp Pendleton covers a long stretch of coast north of Oceanside, so a move tied to the base can be a short run between Oceanside neighborhoods or a drive up the I-5 to a housing area well inside the gates. PCS dates rarely line up neatly with a lease, which is why the first conversation is about dates.
Hulk Movers has handled moves near Camp Pendleton, MCAS Miramar and Naval Base San Diego since 2019. We are licensed and insured under USDOT #3358690 and have 670+ Google reviews at a 4.8 average.
Getting a civilian crew through the gate
A private moving company enters the base like any other visitor or contractor, and the base sets those rules, not us. Before moving day, ask your housing office what a civilian mover needs for access and send those instructions with your address. The crew follows them as written.
Off-base homes in North County
Many Pendleton families live off base in Oceanside, Vista, Fallbrook and Carlsbad. The beach blocks of South Oceanside are tight for a truck, the newer tracts inland along SR-76 are easier, and Fallbrook's rural parcels can put the house at the end of a long driveway. Tell us which you have and the crew plans the truck spot ahead of time.
Moving between duty stations
Orders out of state are handled by our long-distance service under our interstate authority. If you shipped your household in a portable container instead, our crew can load it before you leave or unload it when you arrive. If you are doing a personally procured move, ask your transportation office what paperwork it needs from a private mover before you book.
When orders come with short notice
Call as soon as you have dates, even if they might change. We will tell you what the schedule allows, and if your report date moves, call again and we will look at the calendar with you.

Common questions
Are you part of the military's household goods program?
No. Hulk Movers is a private company you hire directly, and we do not hold a government moving contract.
Can the move-out finish before my housing checkout?
Tell us the checkout or inspection time when you book, and we will schedule the move-out to finish ahead of it.
Do you move to San Clemente?
San Clemente is in Orange County, so a move there from San Diego County is handled by our long-distance service. Call and we will explain what that means for scheduling.
