THE ULTIMATE COLLEGE DORM MOVE IN GUIDE

$18

College move-in somehow begins with an innocent shopping list and ends with four adults standing in a parking lot asking who packed the scissors.

I would like to prevent that.

Inside this 32-page guide, I walk you through the entire process—from the first housing email through the moment the bed is made, the boxes are broken down, and your family needs to lovingly leave. The guide covers the full countdown, budget, roommate coordination, bedding, personal care, clothing, laundry, technology, packing systems, documents, move-in logistics, room inspection, setup, and printable trackers.

Inside, I’m helping you with:

The four-week move-in countdown
What to confirm before buying anything
Where to spend, save, share, and wait
The roommate conversation before either family buys a microwave
Bedding and the bed you need to make first
Personal care, grooming, skincare, makeup, shaving, hair care, period care, and the optional sections that apply to you
Realistic clothing, shoes, accessories, game-day, recruitment, and formal-event planning
Laundry, delicates, stains, and drying without destroying an $80 sweater
Technology, food, cleaning, school supplies, and tools
The packing-by-zone system
Your Open First bag and personal move-in bag
Shipping, campus apps, passwords, prescriptions, documents, and emergency information
The final 24-hour checklist
The exact move-in order of operations
Room-damage documentation
Parent jobs, boundaries, and the goodbye plan
Printable worksheets and my live college ShopMy collection

This is for every student. Use the universal systems and choose the optional personal-care, clothing, cultural, religious, athletic, recruitment, or health sections that apply to you.

I am not here to make you buy more.

I am here to stop you from buying the wrong things, forgetting the important things, and opening twelve boxes before finding the sheets.

This is for you if:

You are moving into college for the first time
You are a parent trying to remember everything for everyone
Your shopping tabs have become a cry for help
You do not know what your roommate is bringing
You need one clear system instead of 46 conflicting TikToks
You want someone warm, practical, and slightly overinvested to tell you what happens next
