If you're a UBC student living in residence, summer move-out can be stressful. Whether you're flying home, heading out on co-op, or simply don’t want to move everything back and forth, student storage at UBC is often the easiest solution.
At Student Storage, we specialize in pick-up and storage services designed specifically for UBC students. We pick up directly from residence, store your items securely over the summer, and return them when you’re back on campus.
Every April, thousands of students living in:
Totem Park
Vanier
Orchard Commons
Place Vanier
Ponderosa Commons
Brock Commons
Marine Drive
must move out of residence.
But most students:
Don’t have cars
Live out of province
Are international students flying home
Don’t want to pay 12 months of rent for 8 months of school
Instead of hauling everything home, many UBC students use summer storage.
We’ve made the process simple:
Choose your pickup date before residence move-out deadlines.
Our team comes directly to your dorm building.
No trucks. No heavy lifting.
Your belongings are stored securely over the summer.
Schedule delivery before classes begin.
Pricing depends on how much you store.
Typical students spend between $300–$600 for the entire summer.
This is often cheaper than:
Renting a storage locker in Vancouver
Paying for U-Haul
Buying new furniture in September
Traditional storage means:
Renting a truck
Carrying items downstairs
Driving across Vancouver
Returning the truck
Repeating the process in September
Student Storage eliminates all of that.
We’re built for students.
Yes, we coordinate pickups around UBC move-out dates.
Very. Many UBC international students use storage over summer break.
Clothing, bedding, small furniture, kitchen items, books, etc.
We recommend booking 3–4 weeks before move-out.
Avoid the stress of summer move-out.
