Residence Life works with select outside vendors to provide additional services for students. These vendors rent or sell common items students have in their rooms.
If you’re thinking of carpet, here’s a way to make it worry-free. Order your carpet online from College Carpets by August 17, and it will be in your room when you move in ready for you to unroll. Eight different colors and a variety of sizes tailored to our residence halls are available. You can also order a WMU spirit mat in a variety of shapes and styles! Prices vary by size.
Instead of trying to pack a futon, you can order your futon online. Order by August 12 and it will be waiting in your room when you arrive. The frame and six-inch pad are $229.99, and the futon fits under both WMU loftable furniture and Bedloft rented lofts. Just check with your roommate so you don’t end up with two!
Most of WMU’s halls already have furniture in them you can loft. For those that don’t, we partnered with Bedloft for an easy-to-rent loft that will elevate your bed and increase your floor space.
Halls where students can rent a loft:
Rental lofts are $129 for the academic year. The metal frame assembles quickly, and the entire bed – frame and all – fits in it. Order your loft by August 12, and the parts will be in your room to set up when you arrive.
Lofts may be built in halls without loftable furniture. Loft schematics and information about building a loft is available online.
