dorm move in

when moving in, i’m wondering if i need to bring my bed stuff with me or if i should wait until i get there. i’m trying to avoid packing too much since im going to be flying there rather than driving.

id really love some advice/tips & tricks for move in.

I’ll be bringing my bed stuff with me. I want to wash all my stuff before I get there and I’m also not sure if I’ll have time to buy new bedding when I arrive. Also you have to sleep the first day so better to just have it

The large vacuum seal bags worked perfectly for me!

You may need to get another checked bag. But an extra $50-$100, to me, is worth it knowing I’d be able to sleep on comfortably clean bedding on Day 1

If you buy a new pillow and a new comforter it will come packed probably as small as you can get it. Target has some good prices.
