It\u2019s that time of year when students gear up to return to school,\nleaving many wondering how they\u2019ll move back to campus safely. As states reopen\nwe\u2019re still facing the concerns of COVID-19; many students are preparing to\nreturn to dorms for the next semester of college but wish to find a solution\nthat allows for social distancing. We\u2019ve outlined an option that students can\nconsider to help them get back to campus safely and easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Moving
Students can avoid campus crowds on move-in days by allowing Collegeboxes <\/a>to deliver their boxes to dorms. Crowds don\u2019t allow for proper social distancing, and by avoiding this students are able to move back to campus safely.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Moving Back\nto Campus Safely with Collegeboxes Early Delivery Service <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Schools and families across the country are looking for ways for students to return for the fall term while following CDC guidelines. Many campuses have plans to institute daily limits on the number of students moving into university housing. Collegeboxes <\/a>has a way to help limit students and parents from congregating and risking their health while still making the move easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTo prevent students from gathering on campus all at once,\nCollegeboxes is encouraging the use of our Ship-To-School service,\u201d said Dain\nHowell, Director of Collegeboxes. \u201cWith the Ship-To-School options, students\ndon\u2019t have to load up their car or lug items to the airport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Early Delivery option through Collegeboxes <\/a>Ship-To-School service allows students to arrive on campus with their belongings already there. In other words, this makes move-in easier, safer, and avoids the crowds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Preparing to\nMove Back to Campus Safely<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

First students and parents can sign up online at Collegeboxes.com for ship-to-school. Here students can opt to receive the Starter-Kit or use their boxes. The Starter-Kit comes with 5 boxes, tape, a marker, 5 zip ties, and 10 label pouches to help make packing easier. Also, the boxes supplied are double-walled to help further protect students\u2019 belongings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


Pro Tip<\/strong>: Students who need more boxes can visit their local U-Haul<\/a> center. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Once the boxes are packed and labeled, arrange for them to be picked up. Collegeboxes includes pickup \u201cAt Your Door\u2122.\u201d Then just select the pickup window that works best for you, and we\u2019ll deliver the boxes to your dorm room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Moving
Ship-To-School gives students the freedom to social distance from crowds where possible. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n


Pro Tip: <\/strong>It’s recommended boxes be kept under 50lbs, so everything arrives safely. But, your package will still ship if it is under 70lbs. <\/p>

Moving Back\nto Campus Safely While Social Distancing <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The delivery \u201cAt Your Door\u201d option allows students and parents to stay home, avoid the crowds, and therefore get their belongings delivered early to their dorm. Once picked up, the boxes are then shipped to a U-Haul facility near the student\u2019s school until it\u2019s time for them to be brought to the student residence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To help students impact by COVID-19, Collegeboxes has a discount\ncode \u201cSTS2020\u201d for 10% off shipping on orders of Ship-To-School.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
