As you begin to prepare your room for departure, you must be aware of your move-out responsibilities for your space on campus. All students are required to follow the check-list below before leaving campus for summer break.

1. Submit any facilities maintenance requests for any maintenance concerns in your room/suite/apartment.

• Please note, that submitting a facilities request prior to spring move-out for a damaged item in your room does not mean you will not be charged for those damages.
• Students who wish to take responsibility for causing damage to their room should reach out to their Community Director (CD) or email ResEd & Housing at housing@union.edu with their name, ID number, building, room number, a picture of the item they damaged, and a statement taking responsibility for the damage.
• If you are not comfortable with your room's condition or your roommate(s) have not yet left and you are not sure they will leave the room in clean condition, please reach out to your CD. They will be able to document this information to include in the final assessment of the space

2. Ensure you understand the room departure, cleaning standards, and key return requirements for move-out. The entire room/suite/apartment must be left in clean condition. If you have questions about the room cleaning policy, please talk with your Community Director or Community Advisor.

3. Make plans for storage or shipping for your belongings. Dorm Room Movers is an official partner of Union and our recommended vendor for summer storage

4. Cleaning your room before you leave:

• Res & Ed Housing expects that all rooms are left in clean condition before students formally move out of their rooms Specifically, this means:
  • All personal items have been removed from the room, bathrooms, common areas and the hallway outside your door
  • Refrigerators, microwaves, ovens, and freezers have been emptied and wiped clean
  • Cabinets, dressers, and closets have been emptied and wiped clean
  • All trash has been removed from the room/suite/apartment and disposed of properly
  • The floors of free of debris, and have been swept or vacuumed
  • There is no missing or extra furniture in the room
• Students who do not leave their room in clean condition will be charged a $150 per resident
• Any large furniture left in a room that is not college-owned furniture will result in a $50 charge per resident per piece of large furniture that is required to be removed from the room
