A new storage business has come to town! WeStash It is a locally owned storage business suited for college students. The cofounders, Britt &amp; Matt, work on Wesleyan University’s campus in Middletown, CT. They know firsthand the issues that college students face when trying to find storage in town. They heard it all - some went half-in with a friend on a storage unit only for the friend to back out; some had no way of getting all of their items and boxes to the nearest storage unit; and others only needed to store a few things!

They found a way solution. WeStash It. WeStash It is an affordable and convenient way for college students to store their items. All you have to do is book the items online within 24 hours of you needing the items picked up. They come to your curb, pick up your items and bring them to storage for you! The items are priced individually and you can add or subtract items as the day approaches by accessing your online account.

Within the first year, Britt &amp; Matt realized the waste being produced by cardboard boxes. Students would use them one year and buy new ones the next. So where did the old ones go? That’s when they started offering reusable, eco-friendly bins. Students rent them and they can hold so much more than a box. It’s a win-win for everyone involved.

Britt &amp; Matt work as a team and do nearly all of the storage pick-ups and drop-offs. They have built a solid rapport with Wesleyan University and love learning where the students are from. Wesleyan has a very diverse population and WeStash It meets the demands of everyone. They are always looking to improve and they welcome any and all questions that students may have.

The cofounders host informational booths at Usdan on Wesleyan’s campus and hope to hold some outdoor events when the weather permits. Until then, email them! westashit@gmail.com
