Boston University - Pack - Store - Ship Program

Spring 2025 Move-Out Storage & Shipping

For over 10 years, Boston University has partnered with The UPS Store to provide students with safe, convenient, and affordable shipping and storage options. The UPS Store Storage Service is the only Boston University approved storage and shipping service for BU students.

There are multiple convenient Storage Drop-Off locations (see below) on the Charles River Campus during the move-out process. Students are responsible for the cost to store or ship their boxes/items.

First-time users will need to set up an account by clicking this link: Sign up for Student Storage.

Once an account is established, students can:

  • Purchase Storage Boxes and Tape
  • Drop Off their Summer Storage at a Move Out station
    •
    Important Notes:

    *Students that are dropping off storage at a On campus Move-Out station DO NOT need to request a storage pickup! Just bring your storage to one of our On campus Move Out stations.

    *Students should write their Name, phone number and BU ID# on each storage box before bringing it to a Move Out station.

    *If you need your storage returned before July 1, 2025, please write "Early Withdrawal" on your boxes and notify the staff at the Move Out stations when you drop off your storage.
