Move-out


Summer 2023:

Please refer to your Knights email. Detailed instructions and expectations regarding cleaning and check-out are emailed to all residents.

Failure to properly clean your space, remove all belongings and trash, and turn in all keys can result in charges posted to your student account.

For questions about completing a room change, contact your community office.


If you are moving out:

  • Carts or moving assistance may not be available. You are responsible for transporting your items.
  • Residents are responsible for removing all belongings and trash from their rooms. Dumpsters and recycling bins will be available in all communities.
  • If any of your unwanted items are still in good condition, Donation Bins will be located around various locations in each community.  
    • You can find a list of what can and cannot be donated at UCF Housing on Instagram.
    • If an item is too large to fit in the donation bin, please leave it next to the bin and contact a housing staff member. 

Once all of your belongings and trash have been removed, and your space is clean, turn in your keys and go to your Community Office to complete your in-person check-out process.
