Move-In Tips

  • You will have 15 minutes to unload your vehicle in Lot 11/11A across from Julia Sears.
  • Move Crew volunteers will help unload your belongings to the curb and can watch belongings until they are moved to your room. Move Crew is available until 3 p.m.
  • Make sure one person stays with your vehicle at all times while unloading.
  • Trailers are not allowed in Lot 11A. Go to the designated unloading area in Lot 11.
  • After the vehicle is emptied, you MUST move the vehicle to long-term parking in Lot 1 or 20. You can ride a free shuttle back to Julia Sears Residence Community to reunite with family.
  • Vehicles with handicap permits may park in Lot 11 after unloading.

SHUTTLES

AVOID TICKETING & TOWING

  • Do not park in barricaded areas, areas with cones, yellow spaces, Gold lots, or facility stalls.
  • After 3 p.m. on August 20, students and guests can park in green lots without a permit through 3 p.m. on Sunday, August 23 (when enforcement begins). Make sure your car is in the correct lot by this time to avoid getting ticketed.
  • Vehicles parked in Lots 11/11A on Friday, August 21 without a valid Gold permit will be ticketed (as that is a staff parking lot!)
