Last week on the furniture blog we discussed storage ideas for small apartment or dorm living in college. This week, we take on areas of your living space that can benefit from organization. Once you have these three areas in check, you can save time and not have to worry about last minute changes of plans, or all night study marathons! 1. The Closet: Arranging clothes and shoes by color is a classic technique, but it is not always practical and even more difficult to maintain. Instead, keep your lifestyle and habits in mind to find an arrangement that works best for you. Organizing clothes by season, by outfit choices that would look good together, or for dedicated occasions (gym, class, dinner date, etc) are all ideas to consider. Refer to our last furniture blog post for storage tips for your closet that can also help you organize. 2.

Do not fret though, making room for storage in your apartment or dorm is really more simple than you think! And it does not have to be expensive either. Here are a few storage tips we like. These tips also can be useful for home staging projects that aim to de-clutter showroom spaces. Make the most of wall space.

We’re excited to announce a new initiative that partners CORT Furniture with educational institutions to provide valuable student furniture solutions. At a time when revenue is down at many colleges and universities, we’re launching our Partner Referral Program. It will provide these important establishments with a new source of revenue from a previously untapped market— off-campus student living. There are millions of college students living in off-campus apartments and rented houses, and they require temporary furnishing options on flexible terms. This new program enables universities to connect students with solutions from CORT, while earning schools a profit for every referral. The participating school simply posts our furniture rental services listing along with off-campus housing information on the school website. The listing features a call to action that connects students to view furniture options online or speak with a CORT representative. For every student who uses this listing to access our services and secure a student furniture rental lease, the referring school will receive $75. It’s our way of rewarding the school for promoting our services. Meanwhile, students and parents benefit from the convenience of high-quality CORT student furniture rental. We’re enabling schools to provide this additional, valuable service to students. CORT provides …
