Nashville's college scene is growing fast. Vanderbilt, Belmont, Lipscomb, and Tennessee State bring tens of thousands of students into the city each year, and every spring they all need somewhere to put their stuff. Local self-storage facilities dot Charlotte Avenue and Broadway, but they're designed for long-term renters, not students who need a few months of summer storage with pickup and delivery.

Storage Scholars is the official student storage partner at Vanderbilt University and Belmont University. We pick up your belongings from your dorm room, store everything in a climate-controlled facility, and deliver it back when you return. No moving truck. No parking garage nightmares. No hauling boxes across West End Avenue in May heat.

Nashville summers are hot and humid, with temperatures regularly hitting the 90s from June through September. That makes climate-controlled storage a necessity, not a luxury. Electronics, wooden instruments, furniture, and clothing all need protection from heat and moisture.

Storage Scholars' summer storage aligns with each university's academic calendar. We schedule pickups during your school's move-out window and deliver to your new room when fall semester begins. Everything stays in a secure, climate-controlled facility all summer.

Heading to Nashville for the first time? Our ship-to-school service lets you pack and ship your belongings from home. We receive your boxes and deliver them to your dorm room on move-in day. Skip the road trip, the airport baggage fees, and the scramble to find a cart at Walmart before move-in starts.

Moving between dorms, switching to off-campus housing, or heading home for the summer? Our team handles everything. We're especially familiar with the unique constraints at Belmont, where parking garages can't accommodate U-Hauls and trailers, and street parking during move-out is restricted.
