Keys, arrival times and unloading instructions
Arriving at Coventry or Warwick university accommodation
The correct key-collection point and arrival time come from the instructions issued for your residence, as the two universities manage vehicle arrivals differently.
Coventry University currently directs residents of Bishop Gate, Godiva Place and The Cycle Works to collect keys from the reception at their hall, with advance contact required for an out-of-hours arrival. At Warwick, students arriving in a private car during the main campus arrival period must complete the online accommodation induction, provide their travel details and book a slot before downloading their instructions.
Short unloading windows and city parking rules
Stopping outside Coventry student accommodation
The suitable unloading point depends on the residence and the restrictions outside it, and it may not be directly beside the entrance.
Coventry University’s current arrivals guidance allows 30 minutes of on-site parking at Godiva Place for keys and unloading, but says The Cycle Works has no on-site parking and directs arrivals to nearby pay-and-display car parks. Elsewhere, Coventry City Council describes loading bays as places for deliveries and collections, with any vehicle or time conditions shown on the signs.

Coventry student-removal FAQs
Questions about Coventry student moves
Answers about university halls, private homes, pricing and moving day.
What can be included in a Coventry student removal?
A Coventry student removal can cover the contents of a room, studio or flat, or one person’s belongings from a shared house. Include all packed bags and boxes along with bicycles, appliances, computers, other electronics and furniture.
Can I arrange a move into Coventry University halls?
A move to confirmed Coventry University accommodation can be arranged through Porta. Use the full hall address and reception details, and follow the key-collection and parking instructions provided for that residence.
Does the service cover University of Warwick accommodation?
The service covers moves to and from University of Warwick campus residences in CV4. Private-car arrivals during the main arrival period require a slot booked through the university’s online induction.
Is the University of Warwick campus in Coventry?
The University of Warwick’s main campus has a Coventry address and postcode, south-west of Coventry city centre. Enter the exact residence and arrival details rather than using the university name alone.
Which Coventry student areas are covered?
Collections and deliveries are available across Coventry, including the city centre, Far Gosford Street, Earlsdon, Canley, Cannon Park, Warwick campus and Tile Hill. The other end of the move can be elsewhere in the UK.
How is the fixed price for a Coventry student move calculated?
The fixed price uses the collection and delivery addresses, the belongings listed, access at both properties, the moving help chosen and the collection option. It is shown online before you book.
Can I choose two people to help with the move?
One- or two-person moving help can be selected during the quote. Two-person help may be appropriate for heavier furniture, awkward items or access that makes safe carrying a two-person job.
Can Porta store my belongings between tenancies?
Porta does not provide student storage. The service is for moving belongings between two addresses on the agreed date, so the delivery property must be ready to receive them.
