Dorm Drop Service

Dorm Drop lets you ship packages and small appliances to us up to 45 days before classes start. We store everything securely and deliver directly to your dorm on move-in day.

How Does It Work

There are 3 ways to use Dorm Drop:

• Ship Your Own Boxes: Pack and ship your own boxes (see sizing below). Contact us if your box is larger than our standard size.
• Order from Online Retailers: Have Amazon, Target, Walmart, Ikea, etc. ship directly to our warehouse.
  Smaller items like bedding, desk organizers, or electronics will be combined into a Toterly tote and counted as one box.
  Our totes are roughly the size of the large luggage accepted by airlines for checked in bags, 61" total.
• Request Store Pickup for Small Appliances:
  • Home Depot (Towson #2504): 1971 E Joppa Rd, Parkville, MD 21234
  • Lowe’s (Towson): 1400 Taylor Ave, Parkville, MD 21234
  • Micro Center: 1957 E Joppa Rd, Parkville, MD 21234
  Submit a separate form for each store pickup request.

How to Calculate Box Size

To calculate total dimensions, add length + width + height of your box. For larger boxes please contact us.

Step-by-Step Process

1. Submit the Dorm Drop Form: Tell us your school, shipping, and contact details. You’ll receive a confirmation email with our warehouse address and your unique reference number.
2. Ship to Toterly:
   • Include your reference number (e.g., #REF12345) on every label.
   • Put it in "Address Line 2" or "Delivery Notes" if ordering online.
Tip: Keep your reference number clearly visible on every box to avoid delays.
3. Track Your Items: We update your order status page and send an email with tracking each time we receive or pick up a package.
4. Mark Shipments Received: Once everything has arrived, click the button on your status page to confirm. We’ll calculate your final invoice and enable payment.
5. Payment & Delivery:
   • Approximately two weeks before classes start, you’ll receive a payment link and delivery details form.
   • We deliver to your dorm or approved campus housing area.
6. Move-In Day: We’ll email you your time window and text you on delivery day. Dollies and help unloading are provided. If missed, we’ll reschedule or offer pickup at our warehouse.
