Military moves are expensive! Somehow, despite Dislocation Allowance (DLA), reimbursement from a Personally Procured Move (DITY), and even a complete household goods move by military movers, little costs add up. In addition, there’s the house-hunting trip and boarding and daycare during the move for anxious pets and busy children. Then, you can’t forget the cost of replacing your curtains, area rugs, and other such items that no longer fit your new space, as well as replacing the random pots, pans, and coffee machines that magically disappear en route.
