Rich kids who don't feel like taking stuff home for the summer.

or the opposite - kids who can't transfer all of their things at once for a reasonable amount of money

when i studied at a UK uni i couldn't really afford shipping all my pots, pans, sheets, and books back and forth from Poland every year

Must be nice to have owned things. At that age I moved house with a backpack and a bin bag. The fun of apprenticeship wages.

A rich kid would toss it all in a dumpster and buy new shit in the fall.

I ain't dragging 2 carloads of pots, pans, desks, and clothes back home for 3 months when I know I'll be living in probably the same dorm again very soon. A waste of gas, time, and money.

When I was in college I just stayed in the same dorm and worked. If I had to remove shit I'd have done similar to OP, minus the cool case

Why would you need to take your stuff home?
