At Home Base Concierge, we handle every detail of your relocation to Fort Benning and the surrounding area — Columbus GA, Phenix City AL, and Fort Mitchell AL — from the moment you get your orders to the day you settle in. Every service is available individually or as part of a package, and we'll build the right plan for your military or civilian family.
Cannot visit in person? For families PCSing to Fort Benning, we find, visit, and film properties so you can decide from anywhere in the world. Three scout packages starting at $125.
Walk into a home that is fully powered, spotless, stocked, and ready for your family.
We contact every utility provider for you, including electric, gas, water, internet, trash, and renters insurance, and we get the accounts set up in your name before you ever pull into the driveway. The lights are on, the water runs, and the wifi works from the first minute.
Providers include Georgia Power, Alabama Power, Tallapoosa River Electric Cooperative, Atlanta Gas Light, Xfinity, AT&T, Kinetic, and local renters insurance providers.
A full professional deep clean of your entire home before move-in day. Every room, every surface, every corner gets done before your boxes show up, so the only thing waiting for you is a fresh start.
Available as a one-time service or as recurring weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly cleaning. Cleaning prices vary based on location, size, and cleaning preference.
We assemble all the furniture already sitting in your home. Beds, dressers, desks, bookshelves, cribs, TV and entertainment centers (no hanging on walls), all of it built and ready to use the moment you walk in.
Please note that HBC provides assembly only. We do not deliver, haul, or transport furniture.
Tell us what your family likes and we take it from there. We shop for you and stock your fridge, pantry, and household essentials before you arrive, so the kitchen is ready the moment you land.
Grocery costs are billed separately at actual receipt cost plus a $30 shopping service fee.
Your home is prepared with a personalized HBC welcome kit that includes local maps, Fort Benning info, emergency contacts, our Preferred Partner guide, an area restaurant list, and the little family essentials that make your first night comfortable.
Before your family arrives, we walk the entire property and photograph its condition room by room. You get a complete photo report, so you know exactly what you are walking into and you have documentation of anything that was already there.
Schools researched, paperwork prepped, and enrollment handled before you land.
We research the best schools near your new address based on your kids’ ages, grade levels, and any special needs. Then we download the enrollment forms, pre-fill them with your family’s information, and reach out to the school to introduce you. All you do is show up and sign.
Finding childcare near a military base is competitive. We identify top-rated daycares and childcare centers near your home, contact them for you, and get the enrollment process started using your family’s information.
Available as a standalone service or included in premium packages.
We visit daycare and childcare facilities in person, tour them for you, and send back a detailed walkthrough report. You can compare your options and make a confident choice before you even arrive.
We look into local youth sports leagues, arts programs, clubs, and after-school activities near your home, then prepare the registration paperwork for your review. Tell us what your kids love and we will find it.
From the airport curb to your front door, we are there on day one.
We meet your family at Columbus Airport or the nearest arrival point, help with the bags, and personally escort you to your new home. No rideshare confusion on a day that already has enough moving pieces.
On arrival day we meet your family at the home, walk you through every room, show you how everything works, hand you your keys, and answer every question you have. You should feel at home from the very first minute, and we make sure you do.
Need to get to base, run errands, or grab last-minute items before your car arrives? We provide on-call local transportation and errand running, billed at an hourly rate.
Plug into Columbus with the right career, community, and faith connections.
We research local employment opportunities, military spouse networking groups, remote work resources, and career development programs that fit your background and your goals. Columbus has a growing job market, and we know where to look.
We research churches, mosques, temples, community centers, and cultural organizations near your home and put together a curated list based on what matters to your family.
Moving with pets? We build you a curated list of local veterinarians, pet groomers, dog parks, pet-friendly restaurants, and pet supply stores near your home, so the four-legged family members settle in just as fast.
We stay on mission long after move-in day.
Weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly professional home cleaning. Prices vary based on location, size, and cleaning preference. Contact us for a custom quote.
Cancel anytime with 7 days written notice via email to [email protected].
Every HBC client gets 30 days of follow-up support after their service date. A question about the area, a vendor recommendation, a utility hiccup, whatever comes up, we are one text away.
Need a dentist, a mechanic, a hair salon, or a great dinner spot? Our Preferred Partner network of trusted Columbus businesses means you always have a recommendation from someone who has already vetted them.
Tell us about your move and we'll build the right plan for your family, whether that's one service or the full concierge experience.
