I live in southeastern Pennsylvania, and I’m moving to San Diego for college. I’ve been running circles trying to figure out how I’m supposed to get my stuff there, so this has been very helpful. Thank you!

[@toenailash]

this is so funny bc im doing the opposite! im from cali and im moving to erie, PA for college!

[@nahyucksplug]

Me but Texas to PA lmao

[@knm_nikki]

I've heard that greyhound shipping is a good option so I'm going with that!

[@chanelchic6489]

I know this comment is kinda old but I was actually heavily considering Pennsylvania for college. Is PA a good state? Would you not recommend it? Do you think it’s a good state to move to? Any tips for PA?

[@WhitneyAustins]

Omg I was literally looking for a video about this topic!

[@thatradtechchannel107]

I suggest a macbook air or macbook pro. Both are very easy to carry around and amazing computers. The pro is definitely better but if you cant afford it the air is second best

[@VictorFernandezBigdestroyer]

That’s actually my goal for my senior year which is this year for me, I’m gonna also continue my education at a college that isn’t in my state.

I live in North Virginia, and I'm thinking of heading out to Long Island. The scenery doesn't look very different, but the stores themselves are a lot ritzier. Crossing my fingers for my waitlists to come in and let me go somewhere I'd be more interested in, but hey, if they don't, it's still close to NYC.

When you’re moving out for breaks, how do you pack your stuff? Example, if I buy a fridge from the state I’m going to school in, how would I get it to the state I live in when I’m going for breaks. Or does your school allow you to keep some things in the school?

[@alyssabarnes4620]

Some schools will let you keep things in your dorm over breaks. Check with your college!

[@Whydtheyaddusernames]

Namps Some schools will let you keep your things over break, you could also get a small storage room, or just don’t buy anything big like that? Some colleges will also let you rent mini fridges.
