Walk into a room that is already ready.
Arrivo sends ready-made kits of household essentials to student accommodation. Order in advance, once your housing is confirmed, and everything for your room and kitchen is waiting when you arrive. No shopping trips. Nothing to carry across an unfamiliar city.
A university or accommodation provider? Partner with us
Hundreds of thousands of students move into unfurnished university rooms each year with no bedding, no kitchen supplies, and no towels, arriving exhausted, in an unfamiliar city, where the only option is a shop they don't know how to get to.
Arriving with a suitcase
Most international students arrive by plane. You cannot fit pans, bedding and cleaning supplies in a suitcase.
A city you do not know
The nearest homeware store is often not walkable. It means a taxi and half a day, for someone who landed yesterday.
Several trips in week one
The result is repeated shopping trips, heavy items on public transport, and more spent in total than a curated kit costs.
Everything for the room and the kitchen.
Four categories cover a room from empty to lived in. Take a ready-made kit, or build your own item by item.
Kitchen
Pots, pans, plates, bowls, cutlery, food storage, utensils.
Bedroom
Bedding, pillows, towels, storage, desk lamp.
Bathroom
Towels, bath mat, everyday basics.
Cleaning
Cleaning supplies, laundry basket, drying rack.
