This varies between carrier agents and number of deliveries previously scheduled for a particular day. Personnel assigned at a course of instruction lasting more than 20 weeks are entitled to nontemporary storage at government expense for that portion of personal property for which they do not anticipate a need while at this installation. If arranged at origin, the property normally will be placed in a commercial storage facility near the members's current duty station or Port of Debarkation for personnel returning from overseas assignments. NTS is only authorized at government expense for property within the total authorized weight allowance. Due to the numerous deliveries to all personnel of an incoming class, students may be required to retain the excess in their quarters for as long as three weeks until nontemporary storage can be effected.
Estimates are for standard American design furniture.
For European or Asian design furniture, the estimated weight capacities vary. If you are moving into housing on the local economy, you must ensure that the carrier removes all packing and crating material before being released. Failure to do so will result in removing the materials at your expense. The date of arrival shown on the US Army War College and Carlisle Barracks questionnaire is not considered a request for delivery of household goods. When household goods are to be delivered, the individual or agent must be present.
