I usually see standard of 10k for relocation / moving, storage etc

Then before the real move, a couple of trip to tour the area, see school, look at houses in different neighborhoods. Sometime they even add this for one day when they fly me out for interviews. [/quote]

But unless an empty nestor or single person living at home or renting it makes no sense at that small amount.

My other issue when looking for a OOS job, one place in Florida in a low cost of living area offered me a job with lower pay but claimed it was really higher pay due to no state tax and lower costs. I explained although I am at time from Long Island in NY I have a paid off starter home house. Me moving will cost a lot, I most likely will need a mortgage on new home and my living costs will actually rise. Back then my property taxes my little house was $550 a month and homeowners was around $150 a month. So $700 a month my home cost. The recruiter was confused. I did not see the big difference in cost of living. Cutting my pay 30 percent so I can not pay NYS tax and milk and eggs a little cheaper did not seem a big deal to me.
