Storing personal effects

The Service des résidences will store your stuff free for the summer and other periods as well. Some restrictions apply.

$25/month for other items (10-box maximum)

Storage capacity

You may store up to 10 boxes and 1 compact (5-cu-ft) refrigerator.

Pack all electronic equipment in boxes.
Defrost, empty, and clean your refrigerator before storing. Although refrigerators larger than 5 cu ft may be kept in rooms, they are not accepted for storage.
