Great experience. I requested two string luggs and a pickup, but it was pouring rain. Lugg surprised me with a free upgrade to a big sprinter van. The luggers were friendly, professional, and resourceful as they navigated the heavy sofa through the narrow door and hallway of a multi cornered 106 year old apartment - George

Dorm and college movers in Houston
Two weeks in the year do most of the work: the one in August when everyone arrives, and the one in May when everyone leaves at once. In between there are roommate swaps, a move down the hall, a futon bought off a senior, and the run to storage before summer. Lugg is an on-demand moving and delivery service that moves students into dorms, residence halls and off-campus apartments, and back out again at the end of term.
Which Lugg fits a dorm room
Most people booking dorm movers overestimate what a dorm room holds. Across thousands of student moves, 93% fit in a van or a pickup truck. A bed, a desk chair, a futon and eight or nine boxes doesn't need a box truck, and you pick the vehicle yourself when you book rather than having someone size it for you.
Move-in week and move-out week
Move-in runs on the college's clock, not yours: an assigned arrival slot, a loading zone, a lot that's full by nine in the morning. Booking ahead is what keeps that from mattering, and you can lock a Lugg up to 60 days out. Move-out is the opposite problem, because everything has to be gone by a deadline and half of it isn't coming home. One Lugg can make up to five stops, so the storage unit, the donation drop-off and the boxes you're leaving at a friend's place all happen in the same trip. Movers carry it up stairs, into elevators and down long hallways, which is most of what a dorm building is.
Off-campus apartments and student housing
Student movers get booked for more than move-in day. Sophomore year is usually a walk-up with three roommates, a shared lease and a couch somebody's brother is giving away. Lugg handles those the same way, including the pickup from a marketplace seller across town on the way to the new place. Lugg movers can put the bed frame, the desk or the bookshelf back together once it's in the room.
Moving without a car on campus
Most freshmen don't have a car, and the ones who do can't fit a mattress in it, which is most of what dorm room movers get called for. Lugg is the way to get something bulky from a store, a storage unit or a seller to your room without borrowing a truck or asking three friends. You book it yourself in about a minute, track the crew on the way, and see your upfront estimate before anything is confirmed.
