The process is simple. The MakeSpace truck will arrive on campus at the predetermined time for various schools including Boston College and Temple University. Students can store boxes, furniture, clothing, and more. The truck will then store the items until schools reopen, or, alternatively, have the items delivered to another location. MakeSpace is currently offering a 20 percent discount with the code: COLLEGE.
