> Ask A Question > Add A Comment from Mike F. in TX - April 30, 2007 I'm in the military and will make a do-it-yourself (DITY) move when I travel to my next duty station. So that I am reimbursed properly, the program requires me to obtain the weights of the empty and loaded trailer in order that the weight of my household goods can be calculated. Can Movex accommodate my request in weighing the trailer before and after I load it? Mike, DITY moves are our specialty. Most military members that use Movex's service actually MAKE money on their move. The government reimburses them based on the weight tickets and a tariff that they have developed. The Movex pricing often allows for you to have a little money left over at the end of your move! Making Moving Better Movex from mike B. in VA - January 25, 2007 do you provide weight slips one for empty one for full. I am military and that is how we have to do it Mike, We are a great choice for military moves. Movex is able to provide you empty and full weight tickets so that you can be reimbursed for your move by the government. Good question as we perform a LOT of military moves. The Movex Web Team from vanessa G. in WA - January 17, 2007 hi, im moving from washington to sacramento california. my husband is going to iraq for a year and were putting alot in storage im only taking my bed and a few items whats the cheapest way to take a brandnew queen size bed withme? thanks Vanessa, To be perfectly honest with you, the absolute cheapest way to do this would be to store your mattress and buy a new one in Sacramento. A rental truck is the next cheapest route, and even that will be several hundred dollars (if you are moving from WA state... if you are moving from DC, you are looking at a couple of thousand dollars). We can get you some rates that will be very inexpensive when you are ready to move all of your things, but for what you are trying to accomplish here, buying a new one is definitely the way to go.
