Confirm on-base vs. off-base housing
On-base privatized housing typically bundles utilities in your BAH payment. Confirm with the housing office before setting up accounts — you may not need to.
Set up electricity 2 weeks before arrival
Call PNM Resources at (888) 342-5766. Request service start 1–2 days before your move-in date. You'll need your new address and may need to pay a deposit (show military ID to reduce or waive).
Set up natural gas (if applicable)
Contact New Mexico Gas Company at (888) 664-2726. Gas is often needed for heating, water heating, and ranges. Set up on the same call as electricity.
Set up water/sewer through the city
Managed by city/county. Call the Clovis city hall or your property manager. Many require a deposit; military ID can help waive or reduce it.
Order internet 2–3 weeks in advance
Internet installation slots book fast. Order 2–3 weeks ahead. Ask for military discount and confirm the installation date. Consider Starlink as a backup if local providers are delayed.
Update all utility addresses for BAH records
Ensure your utilities match your address in DEERS/myPay. Mismatches can affect BAH calculations.
