Packing for College Moving to college is an exciting time for every inexperienced young person looking to leave the family fold. Due to this, would-be college students often go overboard when they’re deciding what to bring with them. When you’re moving to college, think about the bare essentials and what’s already been provided: a desk, mini-fridge, bed, bookcase, coat hangers, etc. Be sure to find out what is acceptable and what isn’t prior to moving in. For example, in most campuses microwaves aren’t allowed in the dormitories.
Packing Clothes When it comes to your clothes, there are a variety of different ways to pack them. For your daily clothes that you wear at home, you can simply fold and put them in plastic or vacuum-sealed bags. For your work clothes and more expensive garments, you should consider purchasing wardrobe boxes with hanging bars. Protective plastic covers are also a good investment for jackets and dresses.
Plastic Durability If you have any plastic kitchen containers such as Tupperware, you can use these to protect your smaller more fragile items. If you want to insure a more shock-absorbent capacity, you can double-box the containers before placing your items inside.
Moving Your Armoire Armoires can serve in several different capacities, to house your television and entertainment center, a storage space for kitchen appliances, or as an additional compartment for your clothes. No matter what you choose to use it for, you should figure out exactly where you'll have the armoire situated before you move in. Check to see if it will be blocking any heating vents or cold-air returns and make sure that it won't be in the path of any door swings.

They send unskilled workers who show up late, stand around smoking all day, damage your home and belongings and THREATEN YOU! The owners are just as bad, if not worse -- they are immoral, unscrupulous, unprofessional thieves that you should NOT ALLOW IN YOUR HOME! If I could have rated them in *negative* stars, I would have. Beware!!! 1.0000

From the first phone call through two semis of stuff moved (yup, two), Amenity was a pleasure to work with. When I got sick the week before the move, Sandy and Sarah came to my house to help with packing. They calmly came in and took care of everything! The moving crew was efficient, helpful and pleasant to deal with. All our furniture arrived safely and ended up where it was supposed to. I hope I don\'t have to move again any time soon, but would not hesitate to use Amenity again! Highly recommended. 5.0000

After talking on the phone 3 times with the office Girl and reiterating what I items I had to move with every conversation, I thought the estimate she gave would be accurate. WRONG The movers show up, moving slow, and after beginning stated that their paperwork from the office didn\'t include much of my belongings!! They told me they were out of time and would have to stop mid-move or I would have to pay hourly. To move a 1 bdrm. apartment less than i mile it took 71/2 hrs. and cost me almost a thousand dollars. They also broke two items and ripped a new leather couch. When I called to complain - I was treated rudely and dismissively. I would NEVER use this bunch of thieves again. BUYER BEWARE 1.0000

The guys that came out to help me move were polite, friendly, and fast. They showed up on time and the entire move from the west suburbs to a high-rise in the city was 3 hours! They even packed a few smaller items for me and moved the stuff from my car as well. Everyone I spoke to at the company was friendly and informative. 5.0000
