During your time as a student, it's likely you’ll move house a lot, from halls to shared houses going home each summer. Moving all of your belongings home at the start of each summer and back in September can become stressful, especially for your parents.
Take advantage of this time to de-clutter before packing.
Organise your belongings and anything you didn’t use at all during the last academic year why not list them on eBay, Vinted or Facebook marketplace. You might even make some extra cash for summer too so it's a win win!
If you left it too late to try and sell things online - simply donate what you no longer want to charity or check your local recycling centre.
If you still have too much to pack it might be worth using a storage facility for the summer period. Door2door student storage is a Bristol-based company that can collect from many halls of residence at both University of Bristol and UWE. Why not reduce the cost by sharing one storage unit with your housemates?
When you come back in September all of your belongings will be ready to move into your next property stress-free.
