UPS Move-in Process

To help you find your way to your check-in and unloading area, each community has been assigned a route color that will correspond with your map, directional signs on the street, and check-in and unloading flags.
Yellow route

University Park South residents should follow the yellow directional signs to the designated check-in and unloading areas. Look for the yellow flags when you arrive at these locations.

  • Present your SFSU Mobile Credential & Move-in Confirmation.
  • Receive an unloading permit.
  • Proceed to the unloading area when directed.

Please Note: 

  • If you are arriving by Uber, Lyft or other ride service, skip the Car Call Lot and go directly to your Check-in location. 
  • If you arrive after Move-in hours, go to your community desk to check in. 

STEP 2 | Check-in

LOCATION: MANZANITA SQUARE (MSQ) COURTYARD AT 2 VARELA AVE.

  • Follow map to the unloading area and temporarily park outside the MSQ building on Holloway or Varela.
  • Walk to the check-in area in the MSQ courtyard and show your SFSU Mobile Credential to receive your keys.

Please Note:  Be sure you are enrolled in classes before you arrive on Move-in Day. If you are not enrolled in classes when you arrive at the Check-in location, you will be required to visit the Advising Center to meet with an Advisor before we can check you in. 

STEP 3 | Unloading

LOCATION: DESIGNATED UNLOADING AREAS NEAR YOUR BUILDING

  • Return to your car and drive to your building. Park in one of the designated parking spaces. 
  • Place the unloading permit in your vehicle according to the instructions on the permit. You will have 1 hour to unload your vehicle.

Please Note: Only 1 vehicle per resident is allowed in the unloading area.

STEP 4 | Park

LOCATION: LOT 20 ON STATE DR. | PARKING IS FREE!

After unloading, move your vehicle to any available street parking outside of the unloading area or to Lot 20 levels 1-3. 

Please Note:

  • Due to a max clearance of 6’8”, large trucks, trailers, or recreational vehicles cannot be accommodated in Lot 20.
  • Follow any parking restrictions, as SFSU will not be responsible for any parking violations.  
To help with moving your belongings, we recommend that you bring small moving equipment, such as hand trucks or dollies.
