All storage rates for any item are for the entire summer, or per semester, NOT per month!
All storage prices are based on storage for a semester (summer break) and include on or off campus pick-up and delivery to your address, climate controlled warehouse storage for the semester and insurance, all for one price!, not monthly!
The number one question we get asked is "How much does summer storage cost?"
For on campus students or those living in a Greek house the average cost for our service is around $250-$300 for the summer break or per semester. We do have storage packages less expensive listed below, it just depends on what a student gives us. For off campus students with a bedroom full of furniture, the average cost is between $550-$650 for the summer break or per semester.
Summer storage prices are based on the amount of items you give us and include pick up your residence on or off campus, storage for the summer months, and delivery to your new residence when you return to school on or off campus, plus insurance. Pick ups and deliveries are from the ground floor. If we pick up items or deliver them past the ground floor the moving fee is $35 for every 15 minutes. Students that need help moving a few items, we will help for free.
Note: The minimum storage bill for any customer per semester even after discounts is $100. That is the minimum rate. If your storage bill is under $100 with or without discounts, you will still be charged the minimum rate of $100
CSS offers four different convenient storage packages to save you money if you are interested. Many students start with one of these storage packages and then add items on to them such as bikes, skis, furniture, plastic containers etc.
Students will pick out any storage package they want (if they want one) when we hand out boxes and tape to them or by filling the boxes of a package they want before we pick up their items. We do tell them to take extra boxes in case they need them. We also ask that all un-used boxes be given back to us when we pick up their storage and shipping items.

1 large box, 1 medium box, 2 book boxes, poster tube, roll of tape, packaging instructions and a CSS marker.

NOTES ON STORAGE PACKAGES
Many students get caught in between leases at the end of July and in August and need moving and short term storage for a few days to a few weeks. We can help. Short term storage rates vary greatly, depending on how much stuff you will be storing with us and for how long a period of time. We will try to work with you on pricing. Rates are based on how much space you fill up in our warehouse and for the duration that they are stored and how long it takes for us to pick them up and re-deliver them back to you.
Most students have a 1 bedroom full of furniture (including bed, desk, dresser, night stand, lamp, office chair), boxes, plastic containers and other random items The average cost for these short-term moving and storage services is around $300-$500 without furniture, $600- $750 for a one bedroom, and $800-$900 for a one bedroom apartment full of items and living room and kitchen furniture. Yes, they can be cheaper or more expensive, depending on what you have. We bring 3 of our employees and a truck to pick up and deliver your items. Please take into account this rate includes not just picking up your residence, but also drive time to our warehouse and unloading all your items from our truck, labeling, palletizing and shrink wrapping them as well. On delivery we have to pull all your items out of storage in our warehouse, take them off pallets, inventory them, re-load them onto a truck and drive them to your new address and unload them there as well. There are no extra moving fees if we pick up or deliver beyond the ground floor for this service.
All items receive up to $100 of coverage on them. Extra insurance is $50 for every $1000 worth of coverage. customer must let us know on pick up what they want extra insurance on. Many students will put extra insurance on TV's or expensive bikes.
Although summer break is the most popular for our car storage services, we find that students who study abroad, take a semester off, or want their car stored over winter break find great use with this service as well. CSS provides storage during the following periods and semesters (prices vary per semester):
Many students pack their car full of their items. This is fine. We can deliver boxes and tape to you ahead of time as well if you need them. You can fill your vehicle with all your boxes ans items, they will be safe. We ask to please save us room to drive it though to and from the warehouse. Your car is stored in dorrs in a safe and alarmed warehouse that was just built in 2014. The property also has a security gate on it. Someone is on site 5-6 days a week as well.
With our CSS vehicle storage service, if you have other items that you need stored that will not fit into your vehicle (like furniture, bikes, skis, snowboards, futons, etc..) You automatically get $100 off your other storage when storing a vehicle with CSS (per semester)
Stored vehicles must have insurance in full force. Your insurance is your only recourse for compensation for any and all types of damages, loss, or vandalism. We do carry a garge keepers insurance policy for driving vehicles to and from your address on pick ups and deliveries in case of any incident.
Car Batteries: All car batteries will be disconnected at time of storage. This is to save the life of the battery. To many new vehicles have numerous power draws on the battery even when they are being stored. The battery will be connected back up upon delivery. If your car has a special code when the battery is turned back on, you need to give it to us at time of pick up. If your battery is dead when we re-hook it up to your vehicle, we will charge it. If it does not hold a charge and is dead, we are not responsible. We can easily order you a new battery and have it installed for you at cost.
We do not offer insurance on stored vehicles. The customer is responsible for carrying insurance on them.

We are extremely fair to our customers, if we break, lose, or damage items while they are in our care, we will do whatever it takes to make sure they are either repaired, replaced, or the customer is compensated for the damage. This is how CSS has ALWAYS run our business. The students and their parents are our customers and we want to make sure you are taken care of and understand that we are a moving and storage company that actually cares and will not nickel and dime a customer if an issue arises, we really do care about our reputation
We ask that all students label ALL of their items ahead of time before they show up with their full name and conformation #. We don't mind helping students who have atleast attemtped to label their items. If a student does not label their items they will be charged for us to label them. The cost is $35 for every 15 minutes. On boxes, please label all 4 sides and the top with your name and conformation #. With plastic containers, pack full, tape shut and label the tops and one side with full name and conformation #. With any other items, you can print out storage labels from the website or use tie tags that we give you, or just make your own. Please make sure labels are secured tight to each item. Do not tape or stick labels on the top or front of any furniture. The tape or stickers will pull off the varnish! Tape labels to the back or bottom of furniture. We will bring mattress covers and label all beds. The better you label your items, the quicker we can complete your move and it will make it easier on us.
