Will the Marine Corps pay to move us?
Yes, as long as you were married before the date of his orders to a new duty station were cut, TMO will move your belongings. Or you can do what's called a DITY (Do it yourself move) and you will be reimbursed at a pre-determined level. I suggest not doing this (we did and it was more hassle than it was worth). DLA (Dislocation Allowance) helps defray some of the costs of moving when you have PCS orders.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 21, 2014 – Big changes are happening with the Joint Travel Regulations, and they could affect your next permanent-change-of-station move or how you are reimbursed for temporary duty assignments.
As of July 25, Army uniformed and civilian travelers are directed to use their government travel credit cards for PCS moves, Harvey Johnson, the director of the Defense Travel Management Office said today.
The Air Force has a similar policy already in place, Johnson said, and the Marine Corps is preparing to implement its own administrative message regarding use of the government travel card for permanent changes of station. “The Navy is conducting a pilot [program] to use the card for PCS, so I believe it's imminent for all the services,” he noted.
The change applies to both uniformed and civilian personnel in each of the services, Johnson said.
“Ultimately, we want to extend this initiative to all federal civilians and uniformed members, because at the end of the day, we believe it's the right thing for our cardholders,” he said.
