Temporary storage sometimes referred to as storage in transit (SIT) is limited to employee’s actual storage costs. Personally arranged moves are taxed at the time of claim reimbursement. You will need official weight tickets showing the weight of the empty and full moving truck to determine the net weight of the goods moved. When personally arranging your move you will be required to submit a signed memo from the TO stating what the move would have cost for the weight shipped. When you personally arrange your move in lieu of using the transportation office you will be reimbursed for actual expenses incurred (boxes, packing tape, rental truck, gas, etc.) not to exceed what the GBL shipment through the TO would have cost. The taxation of the government paid HHG shipment will result in a debt for the traveler. Under this method, the government assumes the responsibility of moving your goods and no claim reimbursement request is required through DFAS.
