The following are options to enhance your room that meet Georgia Tech Housing and Residence Life's specifications and limitations. Residents are under no obligation to use these services or particular vendors. The options listed are established companies we have coordinated with before, but in most cases Georgia Tech is not a party to any agreements with them.
Rent a fridge and more: Make your move-in easier and your impact smaller when you rent a fridge for your time in our halls. The companies below are all options* for you to compare and choose from – several of them offer additional items you can rent or buy.
-
My College Fridge: refrigerators, fridge/microwave combos, rugs
- Deadline to sign up for pre-move-in delivery: July 27
-
College Products: refrigerator combos, safes
- Deadline to sign up for pre-move-in delivery: August 1
Renter’s insurance: Georgia Tech does not assume any legal obligation for damage to property or injury, so we heavily recommend all residents obtain some type of renter’s insurance, whether their own policy or as part of their family homeowner’s policy.
- Grad Guard is a common choice for students because their service is focused on the collegiate experience.

Bed lofting: If you would like your bed raised or lowered before you arrive for move-in, you can request that through this link.
- Deadline to sign up to have your bed lofted before move-in: July 27
Ship-to-school*: Why spend your momentous move-in day waiting in lines and hauling heavy items from your car to your room? Skip the frenzy of last-minute shopping and lighten your load at move-in when you ship items ahead of time from your house or from available retailers!
- Deadline to sign up: July 29, 2025
- Note: Outside of this service before move-in, you cannot ship items directly to your residence hall. All other mail and packages will go through the central post office in the John Lewis Student Center. You can find your address for that post office after you register for classes by following these steps.
We'll need your feedback! This is the first year some of these services have been available here at Georgia Tech, so if you take advantage of them, please look for and complete any related satisfaction surveys.
