Who buys from Unpacked?
Student and their parents purchase Unpacked packages for a variety of reasons, some of the main reasons are:
Convenience, most retail stores will not stock all of the bedding and kitchenware items that you need under one roof. If they do you may find that the pricing can be a mixed bag, some items on promotion are good value, other full price items bring the average price of your ‘Moving to Uni’ shop up considerably. Shopping around for all of the items can be fun! But it can also be time consuming and expensive. Shopping online with other retailers can also be challenging, items come in multiple packages, often at multiple times meaning that you cannot guarantee essentials will arrive with you on time.
Unpacked specialises in moving essentials to students, we provide all of the items you need in our comprehensive packages. Our customer service team is dedicated to making the move easy and has an in depth knowledge of University postal rules (which can vary).
Simplicity, Our customers are often short on time, they do not want to worry about which 30+ items are needed specifically for moving to University, ordering one package with everything they or their children need makes the process much easier! They can now worry about Student Finance, UCAS points and lectures instead.
Logistics, With thousands of international students studying in the UK every year as well as students moving great distances away from their family homes many students are unable to take the larger, heavier items with them on a train, plane or coach.
Duvets, pots, pans, plates, glasses and so on are unsuitable to move for thousands of students and parents. Having one single packaging waiting for you when you arrive at University is a convenient and easy way to make the move.
