Move-in day can be hectic. To make everyone's move-in day a more pleasant experience, we greatly appreciate your cooperation with all the instructions provided on this page.

Temporary Unloading Zones

Park in the Unloading Zone closest to your residence hall.

With your residence hall room key in hand, please proceed to the Unloading Zone closest to your residence hall building to unload your belongings (hopefully this will take approximately five to 15 minutes after you pull in) Once all belongings are unloaded, the new to housing resident’s helper should move the vehicle to the closest all-day parking lot (free and no more than a 3- to 5-minute walk back to the residence hall). Returning residents should plan for a curbside drop-off in the unloading zone and say farewell to family/friends at curbside.

Long Term Parking

After you’ve unloaded your belongings at your residence hall, please have a member of your party move your vehicle to a long-term parking lot. That will free up the unloading zones for other Terps coming behind you.
