UT Austin Move-In & Move-Out Concierge — Austin, Texas

Your student arrives — and leaves
without the stress.

From move-in to move-out, Nested handles it all for UT Austin families — package receiving, dorm setup, room styling, end-of-semester packing, storage, and more.

Founded by a UT Austin alumna and Longhorn mom currently navigating the same journey as our clients.

Why Families Choose Nested

Trusted local support
for college families.

We're Already in Austin

No flights, no logistics — Nested is based in Austin and on the ground so out-of-state parents don't have to make the trip.

Everything Handled Before Arrival

Packages received, space prepared, room set up. Your student walks in and everything is already done.

Personalized, Attentive Service

We take on a limited number of move-in clients each semester to ensure every student receives thoughtful, individual attention.

Support Beyond Move-In

Nested College Care keeps parents connected throughout the semester — a trusted local contact when you can't be there in person.

A Longhorn Family, Ourselves

Nested founder Samantha Hale is a UT Austin graduate with a daughter who plans to attend — navigating the same process our clients are going through right now. We don't just understand the campus — we're living it.

The Process

Simple, seamless support — move-in to move-out.

1

Reserve Your Date

Contact Nested to reserve your student's move-in date. We'll confirm your package and receiving address ahead of the semester.

2

Ship Directly to Us

Parents and students ship dorm essentials, bedding, and supplies to our Austin receiving address. We receive, label, and store everything securely.

3

Student Arrives Ready

On move-in day, we deliver everything and set up the space completely — beds made, closets organized, kitchen and bathroom ready to go.

Full Year of Support

Move-in, move-out, and everything between.

01

Package Receiving

A local Austin address for parents to ship supplies ahead of move-in. We receive, label, and securely store up to 15 packages — nothing left outside, nothing lost.

02

Move-In Day Delivery

All stored packages and supplies delivered directly to your student's dorm or apartment on move-in day — organized, on time, and ready to unpack.

03

Full Room Setup

Complete unpacking, bed assembly and making, closet organization, kitchen and bathroom setup, and trash removal. Your student walks in to a finished, comfortable room.

04

Dorm Setup & Styling

A custom decor and design plan, furniture arrangement, and thoughtful styling — so the space feels personal, organized, and photo-ready from day one.

05

Semester Support

Nested College Care provides ongoing local support throughout the semester — a trusted contact for students and families when parents cannot be in Austin in person.

Move-Out & Storage

End-of-semester packing, secure storage, and return delivery for the next move-in — so students can travel home without transporting their belongings.

07

Apartment Locating

Searching for off-campus housing? Nested connects UT Austin students and families with trusted local apartment locating services — finding the right fit for your student's needs, budget, and location.

From Move-In to Move-Out — and Everything Between
