Movers in O’Fallon Near Scott Air Force Base
Five Miles From the Base
O’Fallon sits 5 miles from Scott Air Force Base. The base is home to Air Mobility Command and U.S. Transportation Command, and about 13,000 people work there. That mix includes roughly 5,500 active-duty Air Force members, 5,100 civilians, and 2,400 Guard and Reserve personnel. That draws a steady flow of households into and out of O’Fallon, so military moves are a regular part of our work here.
Planning Around PCS Orders
Orders do not always leave much time. Summer is a common peak for PCS moves, so call as soon as you have a report date. A short move window is easier to fit when we know the dates early. Read our military moves page, then see the PCS moving guide for Scott AFB for a checklist you can follow before the truck arrives.
O’Fallon Moving Company Notes on Subdivisions and New Homes
Established and Newer Neighborhoods
O’Fallon is the second largest city in the Metro East, with about 32,000 residents. Growth picked up in the 1980s and again after Interstate 64 was expanded in the 1990s, and its population nearly doubled between 1990 and 2000. Named subdivisions include Thornbury Hill, Nolin Creek Estates, Fairwood Hills, Deer Creek, Forest Hills, and Fairwood East. Before a move into any of them, we ask about driveway width, turns for the truck, and where it can park.
Apartments Near the Base
Many people moving for a base assignment start in an apartment. Ask your complex about elevator reservations and loading areas before you book. Then tell us the details so our movers arrive with a plan. If your next stop is nearby, we also handle moves for movers in Belleville and movers in Fairview Heights.
Route 50, I-64, and City Permits for O’Fallon Movers
Highway Access
The city lies about 2 miles east of where Interstate 64 meets U.S. Route 50. Downtown St. Louis is about 18 miles away. We plan arrival times around those highways so your move does not start with a delay.
Truck Parking and Permits
The city lists Streets Department right-of-way permits and oversized or overweight truck permits on its permits page. If a truck, trailer, or container must sit on the street, check with the city first. The same page lists occupancy permits for residential properties, which may matter for your new address. See the City of O’Fallon permits page for current rules.
