We're DPS-registered, JPPSO-compatible, and handle the Marine Corps household-goods inventory paperwork directly. Officer housing on base requires base-access credentials, which our cleared crew carries. Off-base rentals in south Oceanside and the El Camino Real corridor turn over every 2-4 years on PCS cycles.
