Robyne’s Nest works to empower at-risk and homeless youth to graduate from high school and thrive beyond it. In a recent article, the organization thanked Shawn Wood and the Student Movers team for helping its Student Care Team transition several students into their new “nests.”

“Wonderful to work with, incredibly helpful, and demonstrated an amazing level of care and efficiency.”

Robyne’s Nest also publicly thanked Shawn Wood and the Student Movers team on social media, calling the team “absolute superheroes” and describing their help as “invaluable” in making what could have been a stressful day feel like a breeze. The organization said its students were loving their new spaces.

Robyne’s Nest said the Student Movers team helped turn what could have been a stressful moving day into a seamless experience, helping students feel settled and welcomed into their new homes. Read the full recognition from Robyne’s Nest.

Moving With Purpose in Huntington Beach

For Student Movers®, the project reflects a broader commitment to the communities the company serves.

“For our company, operating a business in Huntington Beach means actively participating in the programs that make our community stronger,” said Shawn Wood, Founder & President of Student Movers®. “We’re honored to support the team at Robyne’s Nest and help these young people get settled into homes where they can focus on school, personal growth and their futures.”

Republic Services support for Robyne's Nest student housing move
Republic Services also supported the transition with trash and debris removal assistance.

The effort also included support from Republic Services. Robyne’s Nest specifically thanked Debbie Killey of Republic Services for her swift assistance with trash and debris removal, noting that every bit of support makes a meaningful difference. Together, Student Movers®, Republic Services and the Robyne’s Nest team helped reduce logistical burdens so the Student Care Team could remain focused on the students themselves.

As Robyne’s Nest put it, the combined community effort is about “breaking cycles and changing lives” and helping provide a stable foundation for local youth to thrive.

What is a DDT?

DDT sounds like you’re being charged double for drive time but that’s a mistake! The California Public Utilities Commission requires all moving companies to charge DDT on hourly rated moves. DDT means you are charged for the time between the old house (origin) and the new house and the moving company is responsible for the drive time between the warehouse and the origin. DDT actually SAVES you money!

For Labor Only container loads we have no way of getting our equipment back (e.g. moving blankets and straps) if we are only hired to load a container. This is standard in the moving industry for Labor Only moves and typically the options for packing material such as straps and moving blankets and insurance for transport are typically offered to the client from the container company such as PODS or ABF trailers. For this reason Student Movers will not provide moving blankets, straps and any tools for these types of moves. Labor Only moves mean that loading and or unloading assistance is only provided. http://podsboxes.com http://www.pods.com/Packing-Supplies/PODS-Contents-Protection.aspx VOID WHERE PROHIBITED: Although the information on this Web site is accessible worldwide, not all products or services discussed in this Web site are available to all persons or in all geographic locations or jurisdictions.

Release of liability in regard to the damage real property such as floors, walls, ceilings, landscaping, driveways, walkways, etc. are not covered under the basic mandated liability. Damage to such real property other exceptions to the prohibition against releasing a mover’s liability include limiting liability where a shipper packs perishable, dangerous, or hazardous materials without the mover’s knowledge. A shipper who packs such items without the mover’s knowledge may be held liable. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY / CLAIMS / COMPLETION OF SERVICES Customer acknowledges that small items, loose items, owner-packed cartons, plastic bags, unsealed containers, and items not specifically identified on shipping documents or inventory records are more susceptible to loss, misplacement, or damage during the moving process. Customer is solely responsible for securing and transporting cash, jewelry, firearms, medication, documents, collectibles, negotiable instruments, electronics containing sensitive data, and other items of extraordinary or sentimental value. Items of extraordinary value are defined as articles having a value exceeding $100.00 per pound per article, including but not limited to antiques, jewelry, watches, coins, precious stones, collectibles, heirlooms, artwork, sculptures, designer goods, and similar high-value property. Customer acknowledges that it is Customer’s sole responsibility to disclose such items in writing to Student Movers Services prior to the move in order to allow for proper handling considerations and applicable valuation coverage options. Customer acknowledges that it is Customer’s responsibility to secure and monitor valuables and to maintain reasonable supervision of the premises during the moving process. Customer agrees not to leave moving personnel unattended in the residence or on the property with access to valuables, jewelry, cash, firearms, safes, collectibles, or items of extraordinary value. Student Movers Services recommends that all valuables and items of extraordinary value be removed from the premises by Customer prior to commencement of services. Student Movers Services shall not be responsible for unsecured valuables allegedly missing from areas not specifically included within the contracted moving services or from areas accessible to Customer, family members, guests, contractors, building personnel, or other third parties during or after services are performed. Customer acknowledges that movers are not private security personnel and that maintaining security of the residence and supervision of non-moving areas remains Customer’s responsibility. Prior to the departure of Student Movers Services personnel, Customer shall have the opportunity to inspect all delivered items, rooms, truck areas, and premises. Any visible damage, missing items, or service-related concerns must be specifically noted in writing on the bill of lading, invoice, damage report, or electronic completion record before crew departure. If no written claims, damages, shortages, or exceptions are noted prior to crew departure, the move shall be presumed completed in satisfactory condition and in accordance with the contracted services as acknowledged by Customer’s written and/or electronic acceptance and completion of services. Customer agrees that Student Movers Services shall not be liable for claims of alleged missing items unless: the items are specifically identified in writing; the claim is reported within a reasonable time after delivery; the items were packed, handled, and transported solely by Student Movers Services; and Customer provides reasonable documentation supporting ownership and claimed value. Any claim alleging theft, missing property, or intentional misconduct must be supported by credible documentation or evidence reasonably sufficient to permit investigation and verification of the claim. False allegations, speculation, unsupported accusations, or claims made without reasonable supporting evidence shall not constitute valid claims. Customer acknowledges that delayed reporting of alleged theft or missing items substantially impairs the ability to investigate the claim, preserve evidence, identify potential third-party access, verify timelines, or determine whether the items were misplaced, previously missing, relocated, or accessed by persons other than Student Movers Services personnel. Student Movers Services personnel are present only for the limited purpose of performing contracted moving services in designated work areas requested by Customer. Student Movers Services shall not be responsible for alleged missing items from areas, rooms, closets, cabinets, containers, drawers, or storage locations not specifically included in the moving services requested by Customer. Any claim alleging theft, missing jewelry, valuables, cash, collectibles, or intentional misconduct must be reported in writing within twenty-four (24) hours after completion of services and must include reasonable supporting evidence sufficient to permit investigation, including item description, proof of ownership, photographs where available, approximate date last seen, and factual basis for the allegation. Student Movers Services reserves the right to deny any claim that is speculative, unsupported, inconsistent, unverifiable, untimely, or not supported by credible evidence. Mere suspicion, assumption, or unsupported accusation shall not constitute proof of theft, wrongdoing, or liability. Customer further acknowledges that multiple individuals, guests, family members, contractors, building personnel, or other third parties may have access to the premises before, during, and after moving services, and Student Movers Services shall not be presumed responsible for missing items absent credible evidence directly connecting the alleged loss to Student Movers Services personnel. All claims for loss or damage must be submitted in writing within nine (9) months after delivery, as required under applicable California household goods claims procedures. Written claims shall be mailed to: Student Movers Services 2901 West Coast Hwy Newport Beach, CA 92663 Certified Mail is preferred for all claims submissions. Claims must include, where applicable: item description; item name; manufacturer; model number; serial number; estimated weight and dimensions; date of purchase; proof of purchase, ownership, or value; photographs of alleged damage; and a description of the claimed loss or damage. Failure to provide sufficient supporting documentation may delay investigation or result in denial of the claim where verification cannot reasonably be completed. Student Movers Services shall not be liable for loss, damage, or delay caused by: owner-packed cartons or containers; concealed damage; pre-existing damage; improperly packed items by Customer or third parties; items left unattended, unsecured, or not disclosed to crew; particle board, pressboard, ready-to-assemble furniture, or items susceptible to damage through normal moving; mechanical or electrical failure of electronics or appliances not directly caused by negligent handling; loss of data stored on electronic devices; or acts beyond its reasonable control. Except where prohibited by applicable law, Customer releases Student Movers Services from liability for claims asserted after completion of services where no written exceptions were documented at the time of delivery and completion. Nothing herein shall waive or limit liability for damages caused by gross negligence, fraud, theft, conversion, or willful misconduct where such limitation is prohibited by law. Unless Customer purchases additional valuation coverage in writing prior to the move, liability for loss or damage shall be limited to Basic Released Value Protection at a rate not exceeding $.60 (sixty cents) per pound per article, consistent with the minimum released valuation provided under applicable State and Federal law for licensed household goods carriers. Customer acknowledges that the Basic Released Value Protection provided by law is weight-based coverage only and may substantially differ from the actual replacement value of an item. Customer acknowledges that additional valuation or third-party moving insurance coverage is available and may be purchased independently prior to the move, including through: movinginsurance.com If Customer purchases separate third-party valuation or insurance coverage through movinginsurance.com or another provider, Customer agrees to first submit any applicable claim directly to that carrier or insurer and to notify Student Movers Services of the claim as well. SPECIALTY SERVICES / PROPERTY CONDITIONS / HEAVY ITEMS Customer acknowledges that Student Movers Services and its personnel are household goods movers only and are not licensed plumbers, electricians, carpenters, contractors, engineers, installers, or handymen. Any assembly, disassembly, mounting, appliance disconnect/reconnect, washer or dryer hookup, refrigerator water line disconnect/reconnect, TV mounting, furniture modification, fixture removal, or similar ancillary service performed at Customer’s request is performed solely as a courtesy and without warranty or guarantee of any kind. Customer expressly assumes all risk associated with any requested ancillary or courtesy service not constituting standard household goods transportation. Except where prohibited by law, Customer waives and releases any claim for alleged plumbing leaks, electrical issues, mounting failures, appliance malfunctions, water damage, mechanical failure, or related damages arising from or related to such requested services. Items weighing in excess of one hundred (100) pounds, oversized articles, safes, gun safes, pianos, marble, stone, fitness equipment, appliances, or unusually bulky items may be subject to additional labor charges, stair fees, rigging fees, shuttle fees, crane fees, or heavy-item charges at Student Movers Services’ discretion. Customer acknowledges that moving services inherently involve navigating tight hallways, stairways, doorways, elevators, landscaping, driveways, flooring transitions, and other structural limitations. Student Movers Services is not responsible for minor cosmetic damage, ordinary wear, stress-related cracking, settling, or unavoidable contact occurring as a result of moving oversized or heavy items through confined spaces or areas with limited clearance. Customer further acknowledges that Student Movers Services does not conduct or provide a comprehensive pre-move inspection of the residence or property and may be unable to identify all pre-existing damage conditions. Accordingly, Student Movers Services shall not be responsible for pre-existing damage or for alleged damage to walls, paint, flooring, tile, wood, windows, landscaping, driveways, handrails, door frames, ceilings, fixtures, cabinetry, sidewalks, irrigation systems, or similar property conditions not specifically documented in writing by Customer prior to commencement of services. Customer is responsible for documenting and notifying Student Movers Services in writing of any known pre-existing damage conditions before services begin. Failure to do so creates a presumption that any alleged condition existed prior to services or was not caused by Student Movers Services. Nothing herein shall waive liability for gross negligence or willful misconduct where prohibited by applicable law. Customer acknowledges acceptance of these terms and conditions by signing electronically or in writing. The timestamp and name of customer at time of booking will be proof of service as agreed to by customer these terms and conditions at time of booking said service.
