Pepperdine Move-In: Challenges & Our Playbook
Pepperdine’s hillside topography and distributed residences require precise timing and site-specific staging.
Key challenges
Long grades and separated buildings
Limited parking/curb slots with tight time windows
Different move-in flows per residence location
Our implementation
Multi-site staging by building and time window
On-site staff to manage check-out/return and line control
Radio/phone coordination with Public Safety/Housing for truck timing
Replenishment between upper/lower campus as demand shifts
COI provided naming Pepperdine as additional insured
Outcome highlights
Predictable lines across dispersed sites
Faster cart turns despite elevation/distance
Fewer pathway blockages and better parent flow
