The coronavirus pandemic may accentuate that nervousness this year. For many students it is the first time to leave home for an extended period. Having familiar possessions that they have brought from home can make the transition easier. Familiarity helps to make first year uni students feel more comfortable and at home in their new location.&nbsp; With many courses taking place almost entirely online this year rather than in lecture theatres, having those home comforts may be even more important than usual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you start at university there is a lot of stuff that you need to take with you.&nbsp; Clothing, kitchen supplies, stationery, sports gear\u2026the list continues.&nbsp; Here is a checklist put together by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.studential.com\/university\/freshers-guide\/university-checklist\">Studential<\/a> to use as a guide for what to bring with you to kick off your university education.&nbsp; If you look at the whole list you\u2019ll appreciate that there is a lot to take. How do you cram these securely into the car to take that drive into this new chapter in your son or daughter\u2019s life?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Travall Guard &#8211; a first-year-at-uni essential<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Fortunately, there is a simple way to maximise every square centimetre of boot space in the car you drive. Install a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travall.co.uk\/\">Travall Guard<\/a>.&nbsp; If you\u2019ve got a lot to transport in the boot of your car, chances are you\u2019re not going to be able to leave the parcel shelf or tonneau cover in place.&nbsp; This leaves the passengers in the main body of the car exposed to the hazards of sliding cargo. If you suddenly need to brake hard the hazard can be compounded by items flying through the car. Placing a vehicle-specific guard between the rear seats and the boot of the car can prevent this.&nbsp; It ensures that even if you have to cram the boot to the roof, the items stay there helping to shield the occupants of the vehicle from the hazards of loose luggage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Installing the guard is easy and achievable in approximately 15 minutes.&nbsp; You can leave the guard in place permanently or you can remove it in a couple of minutes for use at another time. Naturally, the guard is useful for taking your child\u2019s belongings to university but there are many other situations when you have to fill the boot with luggage or sporting equipment where the guard comes in handy.&nbsp; The vehicle-specific design ensures a perfect fit in the car you drive.&nbsp; There\u2019ll be no annoying rattles no matter where you\u2019re going either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Where can I get a <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travall.co.uk\/\"><strong>Travall Guard<\/strong><\/a><strong>?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Finding the correct model of Travall Guard for the car you drive is also easy.&nbsp; Simply use the vehicle selector on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travall.co.uk\/\">Travall website<\/a>. The relevant products will be shown depending on the make, model and year of your vehicle, among other details.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The journey to start the first year at uni&nbsp; may be your first drive to university, but will be the first of many. A Travall Guard could be your new favourite car accessory and may soon make it to the top of that university checklist!<br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Starting the first year at uni is exciting but can also be a daunting prospect for new students.
