Student Accommodation
Some university students are fortunate enough to live close to their parents to use their place for their halls storage but other students not so fortunate, tell us how small their room is or how little storage space they have in university halls. They also tell us that taking their personal belongings home every time term ends or when they are moving from student accommodation in halls to private accommodation at the end of each university year can be a huge pain on both the student and their parents who often have to lug larger items in a small car hundred of miles.
Halls of Residence
If you don’t want the hassle of carrying your stuff whilst worrying about resits or next years course then we can help. We have offer student storage and have help students store their personal goods while giving them the best advice to not only save them money but to make their lives easier too. We can help recommend how many boxes you need, how long you should store your goods, what items to bubble wrap, where to get free boxes, the best student storage packages and so on.

Storage Boxes and Packing Materials

Have Everything to Hand Before You Begin
Firstly, get together some good sturdy free boxes, parcel tape and packing materials. You can use bubble wrap, dust sheets but you can keep costs down by using old newspaper for example. Remember using same sizes boxes will making packing them into the container more efficient and will make it easier to move them around if you need to late
Consider anything else that might be required to protect your items too, such as lock boxes or small safes for further security, for instance.

Pack Your Items Appropriately
Although it may sound obvious, when packing your own boxes, put heavier items at the bottom and lighter stuff at the top, will often be forgotten in the rush of packing and loading. By keeping heavier and sturdier items at the bottom, you’ll not only be protecting the smaller, more delicate items, but also creating a safer stacking structure too. If you’re storing bulkier, and awkwardly shaped items, it’s a good idea to place softer items on top of them, rather than attempting to pile awkward items on top of one another. Not only can this be dangerous should it fall, but it also increases your chances of damaging or breaking valuables
