About student storage in Heslington, York
Heslington is the village immediately south-east of central York that houses the University of York’s two main campuses, Heslington West and Heslington East. The University of York halls village dominates the area, including Halifax College, Langwith College, Vanbrugh College, Derwent College, James College, Alcuin College, and the newer Constantine, Goodricke, and Anne Lister Colleges on the East Campus. Around 7,000 students live across the Heslington college system. The lake at the centre of the West Campus is the area’s most distinctive feature. End-of-term vacate dates fall in late June at the end of the York summer term.
Heslington colleges each have their own service entrance and loading bay; UniMove pre-books slots with the relevant college reception. The two campuses sit either side of the A64 ring road but loading is managed within each college complex rather than from the public road. We bring labelled crates to your room rather than asking you to stage items in the corridor. Typical Heslington college residents store four to six boxes; the catered and self-catered mix varies by college.

Why students choose collection and storage instead of self-storage
Traditional self-storage often means hiring a van, carrying everything yourself, and paying for more space than you need. UniMove student-focused collection and storage service is simpler, especially if you are leaving halls, sharing transport with housemates, or heading home for summer.
