Frequently Asked Questions
What Does the Insurance Cover?
Please review the insurance policy on Section 2 of our Terms and Conditions: Summer Storage.

How Can I Avoid Other Potential Fees?
All potential fees for this service are outlined within our help center under our terms and conditions.
Terms and Conditions
We highly recommend reviewing our “how to pack” article as it will provide helpful tips on avoiding potential fees!
How to Pack
Do I Have to Use Your Boxes?
No, you do not. You can utilize your personal duffel bags, suitcases or bins if you’d like. Please just be mindful of the items that have a weight limit of 50lbs (can be viewed above) to avoid being charged a $100.00 overweight fee.
Can I Get My Items Delivered Earlier Than August?
Unfortunately we do not have the ability to make deliveries prior to August at Northeastern. For more information on delivery timeline, please email info@uandss.com.
Do I Have to Be Available the Full 4-Hour Time Frame?
It is essential for someone to be available for the pick-up. If you are unable to be there, you may designate a friend, roommate, Resident Assistant, or landlord to assist. You will be prompted to provide the pick-up contact information during checkout.
Can I Schedule a Specific Time Within the Chosen Time Frame?
USS will reach out to you 2 days before your chosen pick-up date to provide you with a specific curbside pick up time.
Example: If you choose an 8am-12pm time frame, your specific pick up time could be 8am.
How Will I Know What My Total Cost Will Be?
The total price for your storage will be based on the number of items you decide to store, and the charge will be processed to the card on file at the time of item pick-up.
Example: If you stored 5 boxes under 50lbs, your storage cost would be $350.00 for the Summer for the 5 items.
Can I Extend My Storage?
During the checkout process, you will have the option to specify your anticipated return timeframe. This amount will be billed by September 1st for the extension of your storage.
To calculate the cost, please take your Summer Storage cost x2 since you are storing for 2 sessions.
What if an Item I Want to Store Doesn’t Fit Into a Box?
You can store items that don’t fit into a box. Just a quick heads-up: any item stored outside of a box will be counted as a separate item for billing. Feel free to check out the per-item pricing above. If you have any low-cost items, we’re happy to chat about whether it makes sense to store them or not!
How Can I Determine Is My Box/Tote/Suitcase Is Overweight?
A helpful guideline we often share with students and parents is to assess the weight of an item before scooting or lifting it. If it seems heavy, our team will certainly note it during pickup to be properly weighed at our facility. Please be aware that if the box exceeds 50lbs, an additional fee of $100 will apply.
Helpful tip: It is cheaper to store 2 boxes vs. 1 box that is overweight!
What if My Delivery Location for the Fall Is Outside of 1-Mile
You may be subject to a delivery fee. All additional *possible* fees associated with storage can be reviewed in “storage” section of our terms and conditions. You can also reach out to us via email at info@uandss.com and we can provide you with more details.
