Students can change dorms, apartments or shared housing between school terms, leases or other housing periods.
The move may go directly from one property to another, or there may be a temporary gap before the next residence is available.
If belongings need temporary storage between housing dates, include that timing when requesting the move.
JC Movers has a separate Short Term Storage service for projects where belongings need an interim location.
