"Students pay by the item and Collegeboxes picks up those items, places them in storage for the summer, and delivers them back to students in the fall," Howell said.

Collegeboxes has been moving students and storing items over the summer since 1999. Student communications go through Collegeboxes – not the school – so administrations are unburdened. Collegeboxes assumes all liability for possessions once they are in the care of the local team.
