You may choose to bring some possessions with you for your new home. To support this process, it is helpful to confirm the type of accommodation that you hope to move into. This will help identify considerations such as furniture, fittings and storage space that will be available in your new accommodation. You will need to arrange to transport them to Cambridge, whether by land, sea or air. 

 

The University does not have a list of approved suppliers for removals. You should contact removal firms at the earliest opportunity to gain an understanding of the process and the associated costs. It is recommended that you seek at least three quotes from different removals companies – as this will help to identify the most cost effective supplier for your move. 

 

 

If there is a gap between the arrival of your belongings and the acquisition of long-term accommodation, then you may wish to consider renting a storage unit. Many removal companies will offer storage solutions as part of their services and you can also find several secure self-storage units in Cambridge.
