Over 20 million Americans returned home from college last month with trucks full of stuff destined straight for the basement—boxes of books, bedding and thousands of dorm TV destined to gather dust. For the books, companies like Chegg have built businesses worth in the hundreds of millions just to try to save you money through rentals. So why can’t it work for the more expensive, harder to divvy up TVs? With a planned presence on 300 campuses this fall, Boston area startup CampusTVs think it’s figured out how to make the logistics work. So even as the upstart company rents thousands of TVs to the incoming freshman class, it’s already looking to mobile as its next target.
