The time is now when people are getting their children ready to head off to college. The kids that are done with high school and are off to college have put a lot of work into their new adventure. They worked hard in high school to get the best test scores and grades for an acceptance letter. They also would have done some research on which campus and school they want to go to. Now you have to get things together to make sure that they are moved in and settled before their classes begin. This is the first time in most kids’ lives that they are on their own and they are left to figure things out. That is why making the move smooth is a great way to kick off the college experience. Good Time Moving & Storage outlines what you need to do when moving a student up to college.
How Do I Not Overpack for College?
When you are moving into a new place at college you are leaving a space you are used to and going into a new territory. The great thing is that you can usually get to do some research about the space and what square footage you are dealing with. This will help you know what you can bring and what will best fit. You also want to know if you are sharing the space with roommates and what they will be bringing. It is a good idea to get in contact with them and make a plan on who will bring what in terms of shared space. That way each person is not paying to move unnecessary large items.
College Move In Day
When you apply for and get into college there are lots of information that you will be receiving. In that packet of information is there will be your move in information. This is a schedule so that you know what your dates are to move in. When you receive this information you want to make sure that you call a moving company right away. That way you ensure that you get the date that you want that will fit into your schedule. You can then set up a plan to packing so that you meet the timeline that is best for the new student.
