Furniture recommendations

Start with the essentials — bed, a place to sit, a place to eat, and storage — and add the rest over time. Dormly's Marketplace is the cheapest place to look: verified students at your school sell furniture, mini-fridges, and dorm gear, often right when they're moving out. Coordinate pickup with a roommate to split a car or truck, and always meet safely. Measure your space and doorways before buying anything big.
