We’re into the last month of summer and University isn’t that long away. Where has all the time gone? It’s time to think about heading back to studying after a long break away from College or University. You’ll need a hand to move all your stuff back into the dorm and whether you’re from Edinburgh, Perth, Glasgow or further afield, at Guardian, we have the expertise and know how to get your belongings there safe and sound.

If you’re moving to University for the first time or returning then it’s important to know the guide when moving all your stuff into student accommodation. At Guardian, we’ve put together a go to guide for when the time comes to leave the family home for another semester at Uni.

Step 1: Gather all the information you need

It’s vital you get in contact with the University so you know all you need to know for moving your belongings into student accommodation.  Your institution may send you details of the do’s and don’ts of what to do on moving day. Your University might give you information via their website too. Checking all this information will prepare you in the right way for the journey ahead.

Step 2: What to do with your things?

We all know that moving is a big test and there are various things to think about before the big day. Deciding what you need to keep, what you need to chuck out. When moving back, decide what can stay at home and what you need to take with you. Do this a couple of weeks in advance so you don’t rush around last minute.

It’s also a clever idea to think about if there are any goods you don’t need. Donating to the likes of Oxfam and so on is a great place to put your free donation.

Step 3: Storage Option

If you’re looking for Storage in Perth for example as your Mum and Dad might want to have more space when you leave, we have that option for you. We can keep your belongings here with us for as long as you want.

Step 4: Moving out day

Make sure on moving out day that you have all your boxes clearly marked with what’s in them so when it comes to unpacking at your accommodation you don’t need to take more time and figure out what’s in each box. At Guardian, we provide a full packing service so it takes all the hassle out of the task for you.

Please get in contact and we’ll happily be of assistance in any way.
