Household Goods HTOS and RFO Library

The Household Goods Tender of Service (HTOS) defines rights and responsibilities of the government agency making the shipment and of the employee whose property it is, along with the responsibilities of the Transportation Service Provider (TSP) handling the shipment, and of GSA. The Household Goods Request for Offers is the process by which GSA invites TSPs to submit rates to provide transportation services for the movement of household goods. See the sections below for more details.
