Micro-Fridge Rentals

Make Campus Living Easier with a MicroFridge!

Randolph College’s Housing and Residential Services has partnered with The Melvin Corporation to offer MicroFridge rentals, designed to enhance your on-campus living experience.

The MicroFridge unit is an all-in-one, space-saving appliance featuring a two-door refrigerator, zero-degree freezer, and microwave oven in a single integrated unit. Designed specifically for residence rooms, it operates off a single electrical plug, helping to ease the power supply demands in residence halls.

Why Rent a MicroFridge?

• Affordable – Share the cost with a roommate for even more savings!
• Convenient – Your unit is delivered to your room before arrival, and you can leave it there at the end of the year—no moving hassle.
• Reliable – Enjoy a 100% guarantee if the unit stops working under normal use.
• Easy Ordering – Place your order at least 2 weeks before move-in for timely setup.

Bed Bunking and Lofting Requests

A request to bunk or loft beds will be sent through student email by Residence Life prior to the beginning of Fall and Spring semester. Only College-provided materials may be used to bunk beds. Bunking materials may not be used to build lofts or raise the height of a bed.
