Let’s Get This Housing Started!
What is Corporate Housing?
- Corporate Housing is a fully furnished apartment with all housewares, utilities, and Wi-Fi included.
- A typical corporate apartment has a fully-equipped kitchen/kitchenette including a dishwasher, oven, stove, microwave, fridge/freezer, and other appliances – coffee machine, toaster, TV, etc., plus housewares such as forks, spoons, knives, cookware, and glassware.
- Typical bedding includes pillows, sheets, blankets and/or duvets, and towels.
- For convenience, apartments also include washer and dryer access, either inside the apartment or via a communal washer and dryer located within the building.
PEACE OF MIND: Maintenance support is typically offered on-site or is just a phone call away. We also provide an emergency line available 24/7 which can be utilized for situations like: no hot water, apartment flooding, being locked out of an apartment, etc.
WHAT TO BRING: When staying in corporate housing, all of the basic apartment furnishing needs are covered, so you’ll just need to bring all of your personal items- clothing, cosmetics, etc. Also, feel free to bring other items to enjoy your time while staying in the apartment – games, workout equipment (some apartment communities may provide workout facilities on site), bike, etc. You’ll also need to go grocery shopping for food after arrival to stock up your kitchen, but all of your pots and pans will already be in your apartment ready to use.
AMENITIES: Options vary by property, so check out the property’s website to learn more about what is offered there. Some amenities may not be automatically included in your stay, so please feel free to reach out for clarification.
NOTE: If you plan to bring a vehicle or bike, please let Dwellworks Living know prior to your arrival, as there may be additional fees or paperwork required by the property.
Travel Checklist
What to Pack for Your Internship
Getting an internship is a fantastic opportunity to gain valuable skills and experience. However, it also requires careful planning and preparation. You need to pack the right items for your destination, your work environment, and your personal needs.
Here are some suggestions for what to bring with you to your internship:
- Driver’s license, ID card, and other travel documents: Make sure they are valid and have your current address. Keep copies of your documents in a safe place and email them to yourself as a backup.
- Flight tickets, accommodation confirmation, and contact information: Print them out and keep them in your carry-on bag.
- Health insurance and car insurance: Check if your policy covers you in your destination and bring your insurance cards and policy numbers.
- Prescription medications and personal items: Bring enough supply and keep them in their original containers with labels. You may also need a letter from your doctor and some items, such as glasses, contact lenses, sunglasses, and prescriptions that you use regularly. Consider putting these in a carry-on bag so you don’t lose them if you are separated from your main luggage if flying.
- Clothing and accessories: Pack clothing that is appropriate for the climate, culture, and dress code of your destination and your internship. You may need some formal or business attire, as well as some casual or leisure wear. Don’t forget to pack some accessories, such as shoes, belts, hats, sunglasses, and jewelry.
- Electronics and chargers: Bring your laptop, phone, charger, and any other electronics that you need. You may also want to bring a camera, headphones, and a power bank.
- Toiletries and hygiene products: Pack the essential toiletries, such as toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoo, soap, deodorant, sunscreen, and feminine products. You may want to bring some extra items, such as makeup, hair products, nail clippers, tweezers, and razors. You should also consider bringing some hygiene products, such as hand sanitizer, wipes, and masks.
- Backpack and luggage: Choose a backpack and luggage that are durable, spacious, and easy to carry. You may also want to bring a smaller bag for your daily use. Follow the weight and size limits of your airline and pack your bags efficiently and securely. Label your bags with your name, address, and phone number.
As this is a general guide and not a comprehensive list, you may need to adjust your packing list according to your specific destination, internship, and personal preferences. The most important thing is to pack light, pack smart, and pack what you need. Have a great internship!
