Coordinate with your roommate before packing commonly shared items — or bring only the essentials and plan to shop for shared items together after move-in.
You can always wait to buy school supplies once you know what is needed for classes/assignments.
Students also have the opportunity to rent a MicroFridge from our approved vendor and avoid packing altogether.
Radford partners with Melvin Corporation to provide MicroFridge rentals for the year. The MicroFridge unit is a two-door, refrigerator and zero-degree freezer with a microwave oven, as an All-in-One integrated unit. These units are specifically designed with the residence rooms in mind and operate off one electrical plug, helping to free up the precious power supply constraints that typically occur in residence halls.
Visit the MicroFridge website to order or call 800-525-7307.
This list is not comprehensive of everything prohibited on campus but includes the most commonly found prohibited items. Review the Standards of Student Conduct and Residence Hall Policies for more details.
