Pickup recommendations
Is my pickup location and contact info private?
Yes. A public listing only shows a general pickup area — never your exact address, email, or phone number. When you're ready to meet, share the precise meetup spot privately through the chat. We recommend choosing a public campus location for the exchange.
How do I stay safe in a Marketplace transaction?
Meet in a public campus spot, inspect the item before paying, and avoid deposits or paying sight-unseen. Never share passwords or verification codes. Importantly, Dormly does not process payments or guarantee any transaction — there's no escrow and Dormly never holds funds, so the exchange happens directly between you and the other student. Trust your instincts and report anything that feels off.
