Evaluate Your Relocation Allowance.

THE LUMP SUM
"Here's some money... GO!"
This is a fixed one-time payment given to you by the company. What you do with it is your decision, but once it's used up the rest will be coming out of your pocket. This is probably the most common type, but the lump sum may be something you can at least negotiate.

THE REIMBURSEMENT
"We'll pay you back!"
You'll be paying for your relocation yourself up to a preset limit defined by the company. You'll need to be good at note taking and keeping your records though as they'll require proof of expenses (receipts, yay!).

THE DIRECT PAY
"We got this."
If you're lucky enough, the company you work for will coordinate and pay your relocation expenses directly. Often this package may also include the lump sum or reimbursement methods to pay for certain minor aspects of your move.

THE OUTSOURCE
"THEY got this."
Your company may already have ANOTHER company doing their relocation management and coordination for you. Mostly these are larger firms as this can be quite expensive.

Deciding What To Bring With.

If you're in the "reimbursment" relocation package category, you'll most likely have tighter restrains with your budget as many companies will have an "approved expense" list.
