WHAT TO DO AFTER MOVE-IN
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.
Blue route

West Grove Commons residents should follow the blue directional signs to the designated check-in and unloading areas. Look for the blue flags when you arrive at these locations.

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 4 | Park

LOCATION: LOT 20 ON STATE DR.

Guest: Move your vehicle to Lot 20 levels 1-3 while the resident is checking in. PARKING IS FREE!

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.  

Moving Bin Rental

Moving bins will be available at the unloading area to make it easier for you to move your belongings. You are welcome to bring small moving equipment, such as hand trucks or dollies.

TO RENT A MOVING BIN:

  • Fill out and detach the bin rental card on the unloading permit you received at the Car Call Lot. 
  • Provide the card along with a government-issued ID. Your ID will be returned to you when you bring your bin back to the bin check-out area.
  • 1 bin can be checked out for a maximum of 1 hour.

Please Note: There is an $85 charge for any bins that are not returned.
