Thank you for using CSS! “ Relax we got it”

DU housing and an administrator, in the office of the Vice-Chancellor, Mohammed Lotif  and Vice-Chancellor Liliana Rodriguez decided to use just one company to move items out of the DU residence halls last year in April and May when the school shut down because of COVID. There were about 800 plus DU students who had left items in the rooms. They excluded CSS in this decision as an option for DU parents and students, even though we have moved, stored, and shipped well over 5000 DU students in the past 15 years and had NUMEROUS students signed up to pack up last year as well. They have not explained their decision to me or ever talked to me ahead of time about this "bid process" and they also excluded CSS info this year online under the resources tab at DU even though we have been offering our services at DU for the past 21 years and literally have helped over thousands of DU students and parents at that time. The company they chose instead to only go into the DU residence halls and pack up these 800 students whom left items behind has only been in business for 5 years and is owned by former DU alumni. This company also did a very poor job on its performance and numerous issues arose with the DU students and parents who were made to use this service, mainly with over billing and with this company working with the school RA's poorly  Instead of giving DU parents and students a choice, and using several companies in the massive move out and pack up operation, DU Housing office staff 2020 chose just one company and gave just that company info to DU students and parents, excluding CSS in the process. They alos blocked out any other company who had DU students and parents decided to use. Also the enitire housing staff that made this decisions left the school last Summer. This should speak volumes on how unhappy DU parent and students were with them. Hopefully DU housing will be imporvoed and more open miinded this year. If your concerned about this please call or email DU Housing to let them know they shoul;dnt be excluding other companies and limiting DU parents and students the right to choose what company it wants to hire if they need summer storage or shipping services this year in 2021.
