Basic Household Goods and Moving Information one-sheet

Changes and new policies   
* The Department of Defense expects to experience industry Transportation Service Provider issues, due to labor shortages, port congestion, and supply-chain disruptions. High demand and low availability may result in service failures. Service members may not receive dates originally requested; flexibility is key.  More information here.


* Shipment of lithium-ion batteries larger than 100 watt-hours is prohibited. Lithium-ion batteries are found in cell phones, power tools, digital cameras, laptops, robot vacuums, small and large appliances, tablets, lawn-care equipment, and e-bikes. They are rechargeable and intended for multiple use. Some are internal and not easily removable, while others may be. Check manufacturer's instructions for battery removal.  More information here. For additional information, like determining watt-hours, click here.
