CU Boulder On Campus Pick Up Schedule 2024
These are the days when we will be delivering boxes (3 different sizes), tape, packaging supplies, labels, markers, packing instructions, and a poster tube to all signed-up on-campus CU students. CSS will have 2 trucks on campus handing out boxes, tape, and packing supplies. All on-campus students will need to meet us at either location listed below on any day of the 4 days available. Students will pick out the packing supplies at this time they need for storage or shipping services or both. Students can take up to 12 boxes of any size. We also have bubble wrap and wardrobe boxes to purchase if students need it.
Our CSS truck will be located and clearly marked at the following locations and times on all four days:
CU students that will not be around on these 4 box delivery days, if you email us ahead of time, we will leave boxes, tape, poster tubes, and packaging supplies at the front desk of your residence hall. Please email us ahead of time if you want us to do this for you. Or you can have a friend or roommate come and pick them up from us.
**Need more boxes/ Signed up late/ missed box days: If you sign up last minute and miss the box delivery day or just need more boxes and tape, follow the on-campus pickup schedule listed below to meet us at ANY residence halls on campus at any of our trucks on Monday, May 6th -Wednesday, May 8th to get more boxes, tape, and supplies
Note to ALL On-campus students- If you need a box kit and packing material sooner, you can go to the Fitter on the Hill located at 1121 13th St. We work with the Fitter and stage our box kits there throughout the year. Go in and tell the employee at the counter you are signed up with COLLEGE STUDENT STORAGE and give them your confirmation # and they will give you a box kit and tape. Each box kit includes 4 LG boxes, 3 Med boxes, 3 Small Boxes, tie tags, 5 sheets of sticker label paper for a printer or to write on, a roll of tape, a poster tube, and a marker.

**** CSS offers IN-ROOM PICK-UP SERVICES****
You can let us know when we show up at your residence hall that you would like this service and escort us to your room. You will escort our staff up into your room to pick up your items. In-room pick-up is an additional $75 charge. If our employees do a good job please tip them, they are all CU Boulder college students, work very hard, and can use the extra $$. Your items need to be packed up and ready to go in your room.
** Rule # 1-Do not store food, It will draw insects and critters into your boxes. If we find food in your boxes or plastic bins you will be billed a $250 surcharge.
** Please login to your account and print out labels using the label paper we gave you if you can. If you do not have a printer, write on sticker labels your name and confirmation # on them and put on your items
**Please put 4 labels on any large item, and 2 labels on any small item. Use the tie tags we give you if the labels won't stay affixed.
**Please use the marker we gave you and write your full name, and confirmation # on all 4 sides of any box you give us.
** All students please be ready for us. Have items labeled, packed up, and ready to go.
** Use tie tags for all ski bags, snowboard bags, suitcases, bikes, and items that normal sticker tags will fall off of.
**ON-CAMPUS STUDENTS- You need to have your items downstairs and ready to go at the beginning of your pick-up time for your residence hall!! We are on an EXTREMELY tight schedule. Please give yourself extra time to bring your items downstairs to the designated pick-up location for your hall before we show up.
**Storage customers: WE CAN STORE ANYTHING (INCLUDING VEHICLES), IT DOES NOT NEED TO GO IN A BOX! Any items like bikes, skis, snowboards, futons, plastic containers (pack em full of stuff), desk chairs, any furniture, lamps, etc. do not need to be boxed, they are fine the way they are! We can store all items, they do not need to be in a box!
**All flat-screen TVs must be repacked and boxed, or we will do this for you on pick up. There is a $75 - $100 depending on the size of the TV. This charge is for custom TV boxes, packing material, and time.
** Shipping customers: WE SHIP ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD! We put $500 of insurance on every item we ship for free and email you tracking numbers. We have bubble wrap available on the box delivery days if you need it. Any items that do not fit in our boxes and you want to be shipped, just give them to us the way they are and we will re-pack them at our warehouse and then ship them for you. We repack and ship a lot of Bikes and Flat Screen TV's for students!
** Do both Summer Storage and Shipping Services: Many students use both, our shipping and storage services at the same time!! Just label and tell us which items you want to be shipped and which ones you want to be stored, it's that simple!
** Return Unused Boxes: Students can take as many boxes as they want. Students who do not return any unused boxes when we pick up their items will be charged for them
