FURNISHINGS MANAGEMENT |
We would like to welcome you to Morón AFB and hope that your tour will be enjoyable and rewarding. We are eager to deliver and set up all the furniture you will need for your time here. The furniture and appliances at this location have been specifically chosen to fit comfortably in each type of housing unit found on and off base.
Planning Your Move to Morón AFB with Furniture
Entitlements
Personnel moving to Morón AFB on an accompanied tour (with family members on orders) are authorized to ship their full weight allowance. This is called Full-JTR (Joint Travel Regulation). If you are single or plan to move without your family (unaccompanied tour) and are authorized to reside off base, the full weight allowance also applies.
Knowing that you are entitled to Full-JTR is very important. With this entitlement, government furniture support is on a loaner basis only. The government is responsible for providing you with sufficient furniture items to allow you to move into quarters while waiting for your furniture (household goods). Loaner kits consist of living room, dining room, and bedroom furniture. When you are ready to move again, the same loaner kits are available to allow you to ship your household goods in plenty of time to meet you at your next destination. If you will be living on the economy, furnishings management will provide appliances, wardrobes (closets) and kitchen cabinets to you for your entire tour.
Members will be issued authorized furnishings to meet local housing conditions and family composition. Furnishings are issued based on what is available in the warehouse at the time the request is processed.
Storage
Housing styles and sizes can be different in foreign locations. In some cases, not all of a member's personal furniture will fit inside the on-base or off-base housing units. Members should review the room dimensions for each housing unit they may be interested in to decide which personal furniture will fit prior to shipping all household goods. Morón AFB does not have temporary storage facilities.
Members will be given a briefing by the HMO about their entitlements and how to set up delivery of temporary and permanent furnishings upon arrival.
Major Appliances
Military and DoD civilian's are NOT authorized to ship personally owned major appliances such as refrigerators, ranges, washers, dryers, and microwaves. These appliances will be provided by our office. In most cases major appliances from the U.S. will not work in overseas locations. As such, major appliances are permanently assigned to each on-base housing unit and are also available for off-base housing units.
Temporary Furniture Loaner Kits
Temporary furniture loaner kits are available to members in PCS status for up to 90 days after arrival and 90 days prior to departure. Loaner kits consist of furniture items that enable you to move into your new housing while awaiting the delivery of household goods. Additional information will be provided by the Furnishings Management Office upon securing housing.

Government Furniture Delivery
The FMO and Transportation Management Office (TMO) work together to coordinate the delivery and pickup of each member's government and personal household goods. Members are authorized a one-time delivery and pickup of government furnishings. Members can also pickup or turn in extra items as long as authorization is not exceeded.
Members must be present at the scheduled date and time of delivery or pickup. Customers who miss appointments without prior approval will be rescheduled at the convenience of the FMO. Appointments will be scheduled at the earliest date possible.
For additional information please contact the base FMO.
