Founded by Dorothy McLaren and Chelsea Hayes, School Trunk provides a logistics management solution for students' belongings, targeting the challenges faced by boarding school students, their parents, and the schools themselves. The company's primary service involves collecting students' belongings at the end of a term, storing them securely, and delivering them back to the school, to a new school, to a university, or home at the beginning of the next term. This service addresses the issue of limited storage space in schools and the logistical difficulties for parents, especially those living abroad.
The business operates on a service-based model, directly assisting parents with holiday storage and schools with broader logistics solutions. This allows educational institutions to free up space for other uses like holiday lets or renovations. School Trunk's teams are DBS-checked and handle all aspects of the process, including the heavy lifting, labeling, administration, and student liaison. In addition to its core service, the company also offers storage products such as collapsible crates and duvet bags as practical alternatives to traditional trunks and suitcases.
