8 88 International Shipping Methods Transportation Operations utilizes two methods for the shipment of Household Effects: The preferred method is the International Through Bill of Lading Program (ITGBL) The alternate method of shipping is the Direct Procurement Method (DPM)

13 13 Destination Agents  Throughout the year we receive changes to the list of agents from all Posts. We consolidate this list once a year and provide it to GSA for inclusion in the RFO.  Contact the Embassy or Consulate if you are a local, or overseas agent, interested in doing business as an origin or destination agent for DOS door to door shipments.  Overseas agents that are not on the GSA RFO under section 9 cannot be utilized for State shipments.
