Depending on the type of expense, it is possible to deduct moving costs on your taxes. For example, you can deduct for packing, crating, insurance, in-transit storage, and using a trailer.

Once these expenses are capitalized, they're treated like assets on the books and gradually accounted for over time through depreciation or amortization.
