RELOCATION SERVICES

University Stores is managing the relocation contracts for the university. These contracts are in place to facilitate moves of personnel, offices, and special equipment. University Stores does not charge a contract administration fee for these contracts. Your department will only pay the fees charged by the van line company.

University Stores makes arranging these moves simple and easy. Using our relocation contracts, means you only need one quote and don't have the added step of initiating a purchasing requisition.

To initiate a move, please contact one of the local companies listed below directly to obtain a quote–do not call the national affiliate directly–the contract is with the local office who can assist you nationwide.  If you choose a company that is not part of the University Stores contract, three quotes and a purchasing requisition are required.

• Lansing Moving:  Allied Van Lines
• B & J Moving:  North American Van Lines
• Two Men and a Truck

NOTE: Combined Van Lines is no longer part of United Van Lines.  University Stores is working to find another United Van Lines company.  Thank you for your patience.

The above listed companies require a release number for service authorization.  To obtain a release number, fax the quote from the moving company along with the University Stores Relocation/Moving Service form to (517) 355-4484. University Stores will process the release and send a copy to the moving company for service.

For detailed information regarding the university policy, eligibility and tax information for moving expenses, please visit the MSU Controller's Web site.

The Employee Moving Expense Form is required by Payroll and can be found on their Web site.
