Book Your Dormitory Move or Student Storage
A Dormitory Move Done For You
Our movers go to your room on the agreed date, pack every item, disassemble furniture, professionally wrap fragile pieces, and load everything onto the vehicle. You pack nothing, load nothing, and choose no unit size.
The student does not need to be present at any step. This is the standout feature and the key difference from every by-the-box or self-storage brand: the entire room is cleared, packed, and transported by a professional team while you are free to be elsewhere.
From one booking, your belongings go one of three ways: delivered across the UK or Europe, shipped worldwide for international students going home, or stored in your own secure unit for collection later. The move coordinator confirms which option fits your timeline and destination.

International Student Relocations
Packed for an international move
Your belongings are packed with double-checked protection for the demands of an international journey, whether by truck across Europe or by container to a further destination.
Delivered by truck or shipped in a container
The method depends on your destination. Truck delivery covers Europe and nearby destinations. Container shipping covers worldwide moves. Your move coordinator advises which is right.
Insurance for international moves
Standard limited liability cover is included. An open cover upgrade is recommended for moves to Europe or worldwide and is arranged directly with your move coordinator.
Customs clearance and documentation are handled through our international removals service.
Secure Student Storage
Your own unit, 24/7 CCTV
Your belongings are placed in your own dedicated unit with 24/7 security and CCTV surveillance. Boxes are moved directly from your dormitory into the unit.
Short and long term, no time pressure
Store over the summer, between terms, or for an entire year abroad. There is no minimum period. Your coordinator holds the booking open until you are ready.
Redelivery to halls or a new address
When you are ready, your belongings are returned to your dormitory, a new student address, or any UK location. Give advance notice and your coordinator arranges the date.
Add more items at any time
More items coming later? Additional items are added to your unit at any time by arrangement. Storage access requires advance notice to your coordinator.
Often more budget-friendly than shipping
If you are not ready to ship internationally, storing is often more budget-friendly. You store the belongings and ship later once your destination is confirmed.
No hidden fees
There are no surprise charges. The price is confirmed through your move coordinator, not published per box or per week, because every student move is a different size.

Three Ways We Finish Your Move
You choose at booking. Your move coordinator confirms the detail and ensures the right option for your volume, destination and timeline.
Deliver
UK and Europe
Delivered to your new UK or European address. Insurance is included in the price of the UK dormitory move. Ideal for students moving between campuses or returning home within the UK.
Ship Worldwide
Truck or container

Store
Short or long term

What We Need From You
Three things are needed for a smooth collection. Your move coordinator runs through these at the time of booking.
A list of everything to pack
Tell your move coordinator exactly what needs to go: furniture, boxes, electronics, fragile items, everything. The more detail you give, the faster the quote and the smoother the collection day.
Permission from your dormitory
Inform your university or dormitory head that our crew will access your room. Pass any required authorisation to your move coordinator before collection day so there is no delay on arrival.
Your delivery or storage address
Give us the address where your belongings need to go: your new UK or European address, an international shipping destination, or confirmation that you want them stored with later redelivery.
Perfect For
International students leaving the UK
