Since that’s not the only time you need to move in, this service will take up where the other left off. It was a great idea. I wish I had thought of it!

I remember moving into my dorm. I was on the fifth floor of a 12 story building. Waiting for the elevator was too much, so my mom and I just took the stairs multiple times. Needless to say, we were exhausted after.

At my last university, Northwest University, in the Seattle area, most of the faculty, staff and student leaders provided move-in help for the students coming in. It was the first time I had seen this done, but it was amazing. I wish more colleges would be so helpful in this area.
