College Dorm Moving Kit

Why Do I Need College Boxes To Move Out Of The Dorm?

College boxes arrive in a moving kit to your dorm room with just the right amount of boxes and packing accessories to safeguard your items while you enjoy the summer. The boxes are manufactured for moving with a 32ECT and 200# edge crush test. Not any box will do if you want to keep your items safe. Boxes from the grocery store, liquor store or other retailers may have structure damage or leftover food particles. Besides, you do not want to bring pests back to your dorm room!

Ordering A Dorm Room Box Kit

Ordering a dorm room kit could not be simpler. Order right from your phone and your kit will be delivered in no time. The dorm box kit will give you a good idea for the type of storage you will need. The measurements are posted for each box kit size. Add up the box sizes and this will determine your storage requirements. Be sure to label your boxes with your name and address along with contents to easily identify your boxes. Make storage reservations early so that you will not be left without a moveout solution. One more good feature is the college boxes have the same sizes for easier stacking capabilities for compact storage.

Don't Forget Specialty Boxes

If you are like most college students you may have a flat-screen TV, microwave, or other electronics. Measure each specialty item to make sure they will fit in your college boxes. In the instance of a flat screen TV it is best to buy a TV moving box and bubble roll wrap to properly pack your prized possession. If you need help ordering call one of packaging specialists or chat online.

Do Not Overpack Boxes

Do not overload boxes with heavy items or you risk having the boxes burst open and breaking your delicate items. Or some items get misplaced due to the boxes are no longer assembled properly and packed goods fall out. Keep box weights between 20-30 lbs depending on box sizes. Check the box stamp on the bottom of the boxes.

Sort Your Items Before Moveout

Always go through your items before moveout to decide if you really want to pay to store the item. You may want to make an assortment of bins to decide to keep, give to friends, donate or trash. Once you have the goods you are going to sort them in similar size piles to pack boxes. Start by taping the boxes with several strips of tape and start packing!
