From halls to home or a new tenancy
Student removals from Brighton halls, flats and house shares
Porta’s Brighton Student Removals service covers an address-to-address move for the contents of a room, studio, flat or bedroom in a shared house. It is available when you start university, change accommodation or leave the city after your course.
The service covers boxes, suitcases, books, bedding, kitchen equipment, computers and other electronics, a bicycle, appliances and furniture. Collection and delivery can both be in Brighton and Hove, or one address can be elsewhere in the UK.
Porta connects you with a vetted independent driver to carry out the move. You can also read more about Student Removals across the UK and what to have ready on collection day.

Arrival slots, keys and hall instructions
Moving into Brighton university accommodation
University of Brighton and University of Sussex residences use different arrival arrangements, so follow the instructions for your allocated room.
University of Brighton students can move in from the start date in their accommodation contract and are invited by email to book a move-in slot. At the University of Sussex, students travelling to campus by car on the main arrival days need to reserve a time through the accommodation portal; students arriving by public transport do not need a slot. Use the confirmed time and hall directions when arranging your move.
Busy streets, campus roads and controlled parking
Loading at Brighton student properties
The closest lawful place to stop may be a loading bay, a permitted parking space or a point identified in the hall’s arrival instructions.
Brighton & Hove loading bays can be used while large or heavy belongings are actively being loaded or unloaded, but the vehicle must move when that work is finished. Add the nearest suitable stopping place, floor, stairs, lift and carrying distance to the booking details, and check the signs at the property on the day.

Brighton student-removal FAQs
Questions about halls, shared homes and moving day
Service, arrival and access details for a student move in Brighton and Hove.
What can I include in a Brighton student removal?
The booking can cover the complete contents of a student room, studio, flat or your part of a shared house. Add every box, bag and suitcase as well as bicycles, appliances, computers, other electronics and furniture.
Can I arrange a move to University of Brighton halls?
A move to confirmed University of Brighton accommodation can be arranged through Porta. Enter the exact hall and block details, and include the move-in slot, key collection and unloading instructions provided for your room.
Are University of Sussex campus residences covered?
Moves can be arranged to or from University of Sussex residences on the Falmer campus. If the university requires a car-arrival slot for your moving date, book it before settling the timing of your move.
Which Brighton student areas are covered?
The service covers university halls and private addresses across Brighton and Hove, including Falmer, Moulsecoomb, Coldean, Lewes Road, Hanover, Elm Grove, Kemptown and Hove. The other address can be elsewhere in the UK.
How is the fixed price for a Brighton student move worked out?
The online price uses the collection and delivery addresses, everything being moved, access at both properties, the selected moving help and the collection option. You can review it before booking.
Can I choose two-person help for stairs or furniture?
One- or two-person help is available through the online quote. Choose two people when an item requires two people to carry it safely or the access and overall move make extra help appropriate.
Does Porta provide storage between Brighton tenancies?
Porta does not provide storage. The booking is for a move between two addresses, so the delivery property must be ready to receive your belongings on the agreed date.
Are packing and furniture dismantling included?
Packing and dismantling are not included. Secure loose belongings in closed bags or boxes and dismantle furniture before collection if it cannot be moved safely in one piece.
