Change the cms once , should help . <| sep |> The Army will pay you 95 % of what it would cost them to move you . If you can do it cheaper than that , you make profit . Also , if you don ' t have a ton of stuff it ' s a lot simpler and you won ' t get stuck on post with none of your stuff because you ' re waiting for your HHG to arrive . You get 19 cents per mile per vehicle , a daily stipend which probably varies by rank and dependents mine was $ 140 day . This is for hotels and food . You also get a lump sum based on how many pounds of stuff you hauled . I don ' t know the rate , but it can be a lot . They also reimburse tolls , I think they reimburse some rental vehicle fees don ' t take my word on that , I didn ' t do it myself so I ' m not sure and there might be a few other things too .
