I have a different take on this. Talk to your HR contact. The company that hired me right out of college had a full relocation package --- or as an option you could take cash and relocate yourself. I think the cash offered was around $2000-3000. As a fresh college grad I moved myself and used the cash to furnish my new apartment.

This is great advice. Rather than buying stuff just so you can schlep it to a new place vs taking a cash offer is a no brainer. Set yourself up in your new place, and then take your time to pick up bifl stuff as you see a need arise.

I don't know how much the relocation package I was given is, but this is basically what I'm doing. Making a list of stuff that I can buy for life for the new apartment.
