You live too far

If you're someone who lives more than a couple of hours from your college, then you probably already know how much of a hassle it can be to pack up all of your belongings every time you have to head back home. Not only is it time-consuming, but it's expensive and even risky if you're transporting fragile items. That's why a summer storage solution is essential. With Storage Scholars, your belongings will only travel a short distance from your campus, remain safe the entire summer, and be returned to you before the first day of classes in the same condition you left them in. 

You aren't sure where you are living this summer

Uncertainty is a fact of life, especially in college. If you're unsure where you'll live during the summer months, a summer storage solution is an absolute must-have. With a reliable storage provider like Storage Scholars, you can keep your belongings safe and secure and put your focus on your summer living arrangements instead. This provides peace of mind and eliminates the need to transport your belongings back and forth every time you move. You can focus on your summer plans without worrying about your belongings. 

You plan to travel 

Whether going on a study abroad program, backpacking across the country, or visiting family and friends, you don't want to be weighed down by all your belongings. This also rings true for any time during the school year, not just during summer break. By calling on Storage Scholars, you can keep your items safe and secure while you're away without having to worry about transportation or finding a safe place to store your belongings. This makes your travels more enjoyable and eliminates the risk of losing or damaging your items while you're on the road. 

You have a lot of college "stuff"

It's pretty common to accumulate a lot of "stuff" on campus. From textbooks and winter clothing to furniture and appliances, it can quickly add up, and it's not necessarily things you will need over the summer. We have the perfect solution if you find yourself with too much "stuff" at the end of the semester and need a place to stash it just for your break. Storage Scholars will provide complimentary boxes to store away the clutter for the summer months, then redeliver it when you need it again, right before classes start. "Out of sight, out of mind" is the perfect way to start your summer break. 

You have no one to help 

Storage Scholars can be a game changer if you don't have anyone to help you. We are here to make your move out a cinch: we will do everything from supplying you with boxes, tape, and bubble wrap to carrying, loading, unloading, and storing for the summer and redelivering to your door again before classes. Our movers will ensure a smooth and stress-free move. 

You have a small vehicle (or none at all)

Moving your belongings in and out of campus can be a significant challenge if your car is too small, or worse, you don't have a vehicle at all. Fortunately, Storage Scholars makes this process much more manageable. Our students and professional movers come with a moving truck to transport your belongings to and from campus. And what's even better–they'll be able to do the same thing in the fall when you move back to campus. This saves you time and effort and eliminates the need to make multiple trips or rely on friends or family for transportation.

Your summer living arrangement is small 

Whether renting a room for summer or moving back in with your parents, there might not be enough space for your extra stuff. You don't want to be cramped in your temporary living arrangement with boxes piled high, especially with additional items you don't need for the summer. Storage Scholars can easily transport those extra belongings to a secure storage unit until you need them again in the fall. This creates more space to move around in your summer living arrangement and provides peace of mind knowing that your belongings are safe and secure. 

Your alternative is a garage or basement

If your only alternative for storing your college items is a garage or basement, then it's time to consider a better solution. While storing your belongings in a garage or basement may seem convenient, it's not usually the best option. These spaces may not be temperature-controlled or secure enough to protect your items from damage or theft. With Storage Scholars, your belongings are always entirely secured. Our units are 100% temperature controlled, so you never need to worry about any of those things. 

You love an easy solution

Let's be honest: Adulting is hard! Studying, taking exams, planning living arrangements, and scheduling a significant move all at the same time is hard. Calling and signing up for Storage Scholars is, quite frankly, the easy choice. No shopping for boxes and moving supplies, no heavy lifting, no moving trucks, and no planning logistics for storage (the same is true for your move-in in the fall). We do all the hard stuff, so move-out is a breeze. If you love an easy solution, try Storage Scholars this year and let us handle your end-of-semester move-out.
