Storage Services
Full Service Storage
Our premium storage solution is the easiest way to store your belongings. We pick up your storage items at a time and place that you specify and then put them in our secure, climate-controlled warehouse. At the end of the storage term, we deliver them to you at no extra cost. As an added bonus, we will even deliver your packing supplies to you ahead of time. If you would like to use full service storage, you must register a customer account (or log in if you already have one) and create a contract.
Counter Storage
Counters are open during university finals period in May.

Counter storage is the newest way to store your belongings with Big Red. In cooperation with Cornell Campus Life, we are able to have convenient drop-off counters in the campus community centers in May. Just drop your storage items off at one of the counters, and we will store your items in our secure, climate-controlled warehouse. When you want your items back at the end of your storage term, we deliver them to you at no extra cost.

Counters are located at RPCC, Appel, Noyes, and 409 College Ave.
