End of year: drive and pick up? fly home? what to do with (dorm) stuff in summer?

We are from chicago with a freshman Tufts student and I wondered if there were any options to keep whatever stuff cannot fit on two suitcases on a plan in storage for next year in case our child might take a plane home.

What do people from afar typically do at the end of year?

Dorm Room Movers storage.

Great info. Putting that away for next year. I’m hoping to do the one major drive in the fall and then have son travel by plane after that.

Storage Squad! Daughter is a junior from CA, so she has used them every year. Also using them now while she is studying this semester in Paris. Great prices and excellent service.

DD and roommate from Europe rented a storage unit down the street from Tufts for the summer. They had an apartment and a lot of stuff, and also access to a car.
