Cork and all of Munster

Student Moves

Student moves are mostly the same few things: boxes, a duvet, a desk chair, maybe a bike or a mini fridge. The tricky part is timing, because everyone moves on the same weekend. We take students and their parents to and from student accommodation, house-shares and digs around Munster's colleges, and back home again at the end of the year.

    Dropped to your room, not left at the front door of the block.

Student Moves: your questions

Can you move a few students on the same run?

Yes, if they're going the same way. Friends moving into the same house, or into blocks near each other, can share a run and split the cost.

Do I need to be there?

Someone needs to be at each end to let us in and show us where things go. It doesn't have to be the student: a parent or housemate is fine.

Can you collect from student accommodation at the end of the year?

Yes. Check the move-out time with your accommodation and book a slot around it, because everyone in the block will be leaving the same week.
