The Costs of Relocation
Those of you fortunate enough to have relocation expenses included in your hiring packages will find that such benefits come in a variety of forms. Over my career, the most common form I’ve seen has been for the institution to offer reimbursement of all or part of the cost of a self-haul truck. On one occasion I was able to hire a full-service moving company, with the bill sent directly to my employer, no reimbursement necessary. Now that was awesome.
Since relocation season is upon us, I was wondering if anyone had advice to offer newly hired professors and administrators regarding moving expenses (or moving in general).
What are your pet peeves about how colleges and universities handle relocation for employees?
