Who we are?
Move & Stash is a student-first summer storage service created by a University of Guelph alum, for University of Guelph students. We support students moving out after the winter semester by providing a safe and convenient place to store their belongings over the summer – especially for those flying home, living out of province, or without access to a vehicle.
With Move & Stash, you only pay for what you store. Whether you need space for one box or multiple boxes, you can choose what works best for you, with optional add-ons for larger items such as lamps, mini fridge, and other essentials. We also provide packing boxes, pick up your items at move-out, and deliver everything back to you before the fall semester begins.
