Move-in week, dorm to apartment, or a summer haul home, student moves are small, fast, and often up a lot of stairs. We move students around San Francisco and its campuses affordably, with the same trained crews and care as any move, just sized for the job.
Dorms, shared apartments, and storage runs, moved affordably by a trained crew.
Student Moves Have Their Own Rules
A college move is its own kind of job. It is usually a single room or a shared apartment, it often happens in a narrow move-in window with everyone arriving at once, and it almost always involves stairs and tight dorm hallways. Whether it is moving into student housing near campus, from a dorm to a first apartment in the city, or hauling everything to storage for the summer, the move is small but the timing and the stairs make it real work.
We keep student moves simple and affordable. A right-sized crew, a clear price, and the same protection and care we bring to any move, just scaled to a dorm or a shared flat. We handle the stairs and the move-in crowds, can combine a move with summer storage so a student is not paying to ship everything home and back, and keep the whole thing easy on a student budget and a busy schedule.
Our crews work the whole Bay Area, from San Francisco and Daly City across to Oakland and Berkeley and down the Peninsula through San Mateo and Redwood City.
Yes. Dorm move-ins, dorm-to-apartment moves, and summer storage runs are exactly the kind of student moves we handle around the city and its campuses.
2. How much does a college move cost?
It is sized to the job, usually a single room or a shared apartment, so it is far less than a full-home rate. We quote a clear price up front.
3. Can you store my things over the summer?
Yes. We can move a student’s belongings into secure storage for the summer and bring them back at move-in, which is often cheaper than shipping home and back.
4. Can you handle a fourth-floor dorm with no elevator?
Yes. Stairs and tight hallways are standard in student housing, and we staff and plan for them.
5. Do I need to pack first?
You can pack yourself and we move it, or we can pack the bulky and fragile items for you. Either works.
6. Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Royal Moving & Storage operates under CAL-T 191476 with full coverage on student moves.
