Moving in...

We have been getting a lot of questions in the office about move-in day: what to bring, what not to bring, where to go, etc. We are going to be sending every one of our future residents a move-in packet in a week or so. It will include very helpful information about move-in day, and be able to answer majority of the general questions that our future residents may have. We know there are those who are starting to buy things for their apartment, so to help, below is some information about what you need to bring (all of this will be included in the move-in packet, but for those who can't wait...here you go):

- Shower curtains (and rings) Towels, hair dryer, etc.
- Pillow sheets, blanket and comforter (beds are normal single beds)
- Laundry detergent, basket and clothes hangers
- Trash cans, trash bags and cleaning supplies
- Alarm clock
- Toiletries, sewing kit and tissues
- Computer and Printer
- Ethernet cables (CAT5E) for wired internet access, cable hook up chord
- Money, checkbook, credit or debit card
- Social Security card, birth certificate, or passport and driver's license (needed for employment)
- Kitchen items such as plates, cups, silverware, pots and pans
- Umbrella
- First-aid items, prescriptions
- Power strip (fused surge protector w/reset button/circuit breaker only)
- Mini tool set
- Stackable crates (for storage in room)
- Address book, stationery and postage stamps
- School supplies and backpack
- Small appliances: toasters, toaster ovens, etc... (not microwave)

Remember, these are only suggested items, you may not need all of them, but we suggest you to bring them. There also may be other items that you'll want to bring that are not on this list... the key is to plan ahead. You'll be given your future roomates' contact information to coordinate things like small appliances and kitchen ware.
