TRU Student Storage (2026 Guide): Summer Moving in Kamloops

TRU Student Storage (2026 Guide): Summer Moving in Kamloops

March 10, 2026

For students at Thompson Rivers University, the end of the semester is fast approaching. Most residents are required to move out within 24 hours of their final exam, with the ultimate deadline of April 29, 2026. If you’re heading back to the Lower Mainland or out of province, don’t spend your last days in Kamloops stressing over a moving truck.

Why TRU Students Need Storage

  • The "Exam 24-Hour" Rule: TRU has a strict policy where you must vacate shortly after your last exam. This makes coordinating a rental truck nearly impossible if your schedule changes.

  • The North Tower & East Village Scale: Moving heavy items out of the North Tower or East Village apartments is a workout.

  • Kamloops Heat: Moving in the late April/May heat isn't fun. We handle the heavy lifting while you stay cool.

How TRU Student Storage Works

  1. Reserve Online: Select your pickup date based on your exam schedule.

  2. On-Campus Pickup: We pick up directly from North Tower, East Village, McGill Residences, and West Gate Dormitories.

  3. Secure Summer Storage: Your items stay in our secure, climate-controlled facility.

  4. September Return: We deliver your belongings back to your new residence or Kamloops apartment when you return for the Fall 2026 term.

Why Choose Us Instead of Self-Storage?

  • No Need for a Trolley: TRU residences often run out of moving carts on move-out day. We bring our own equipment and do the work for you.

  • Save on Gas & Travel: Avoid the expensive and stressful drive down the Coquihalla with a dangerously overloaded car.

  • Flexible Dates: We work around your specific exam end-date, not a rigid monthly locker lease.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do you provide boxes? Yes! We can provide packing supplies to your dorm before your pickup date.

  • Can I store my mountain bike? Definitely. Kamloops is a biking hub, and we have secure space for your outdoor gear.

  • What if I’m an international student? We are the #1 choice for TRU World students who need a reliable place for their things while they travel home.
