STORAGE SCHOLARS IS A SCAM!!!!!

Absolutely do not use storage scholars! I am so upset with Elon University for affiliating with this awful company. They charge a ridiculous amount of money to store your items. Then when it comes to delivery, they will only delivery on a couple of days that they have selected. Your schedule, arrival time, access to your living unit, does not matter at all. Then when you pick one of their designated days for delivery, they give you a drop-off window of 9 hours. You have to wait at your living unit for 9 hours to receive your items. If you want a delivery time of your own choosing, they charge you an additional $200 on top of the crazy amount they have charged you to store your items. Please, please take the time to read the other posts about this terrible company. Be informed and don't make the same mistake I made. I simply believed that if the university backed the company, that it would be trustworthy. STORAGE SCHOLARS IS A SCAM!!!!!

Does the school still have the independent newspaper? This would be a great article topic to take there

They are horrible. Charged us $900 to store daughters stuff for summer. Never using them again.
