CEDAR BUCKET STORAGE, LLC
TERMS AND SERVICES AGREEMENT
Last Updated: 3/18/2026
================================================================================
By engaging with the services of Cedar Bucket Storage, LLC, a Mississippi limited
liability company ("Cedar Bucket"), the undersigned customer ("Customer") agrees to
the following terms and conditions of this Cedar Bucket Terms and Services Agreement
("Agreement"). Unless otherwise specified herein, the terms herein shall apply to all
transactions, services, and arrangements between Customer and Cedar Bucket.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GENERAL POLICY
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cedar Bucket does not offer bundled service packages. Each customer is individually
tracked and billed according to their specific services and needs — even if multiple
customers are moving to or from the same location.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RIGHT TO REFUSE SERVICE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cedar Bucket reserves the right to refuse service for any reason, at any time, before
or after transacting. This includes the right to refuse items or services that are
deemed unsuitable for moving or storage.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEPOSITS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A $500 upfront deposit is required to reserve your service date and storage space.
This deposit:
• Is applied toward your first invoice (Invoice #2) as a credit
• Secures your position in our limited summer schedule
• Is non refundable
By submitting your deposit and agreeing to these Terms of Service, you acknowledge
and authorize Cedar Bucket to bill for any additional charges incurred as part of
your completed service.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PRICE ADJUSTMENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cedar Bucket reserves the right to adjust the agreed price for services, including
moving and storage, should unforeseen circumstances arise. Reasons for price changes
include, but are not limited to, extra space requirements, inaccurate item descriptions
provided during onboarding, or items not fitting within the designated space. Customer
will be notified of any price adjustments.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MOVING SERVICES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MINIMUM SERVICE CHARGE
All moving services are subject to a minimum charge equivalent to one and a half (1.5)
hours of service time, regardless of the actual time required to complete the move.
HOURLY MOVING RATES
Cedar Bucket charges the following hourly moving rates (two movers and a truck):
• $195 per hour 2 hour minimum
• $150 per hour — Labor-only moving services (two movers, no truck); 1.5 hour min
Busy days in May and August are reserved for storage clients first. Rates are subject
to change.
BILLABLE TIME
Billable time begins when the movers depart from Cedar Bucket's facility to travel to
the Customer's location and continues until all items have been transported, unloaded,
and secured at Cedar Bucket's facility or another designated storage site. The total
billed time includes travel to and from the Customer's property, as well as all time
spent loading, unloading, handling, and storing items.
MULTIPLE PICKUP OR DROP-OFF LOCATIONS
Multiple pickup or drop-off locations are only permitted during on-campus move-outs in
May for incoming freshmen, and only with Cedar Bucket approval. Billing is based on
total time allocated from start to finish, including all travel and loading time between
locations. Each additional approved location adds a 1.5-hour minimum charge.
LONG DISTANCE MOVES
Long distance moves are billed at $2 per mile. Extended distance moves may be charged
by weight when applicable (industry average is approximately $0.80 per pound).
LABOR-ONLY MOVING SERVICES
Cedar Bucket may offer labor-only moving services billed at $150 per hour, subject to
the same 1.5-hour minimum service requirement and billing standards described in this
Agreement.
HANDYMAN AND ASSEMBLY SERVICES
Handyman and assembly services are reservation only and must be scheduled in advance.
Availability is limited and subject to Cedar Bucket approval. All services are billed
hourly, subject to a 1-hour minimum.
• Handyman Services: $150 per hour (1-hour minimum)
• Assembly Services: $100 per hour (1-hour minimum)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EARLY ON-CAMPUS MOVE-IN (EARLY DORM ACCESS)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Early access move-in during August on-campus is subject to a $500 one-time flat fee
per dorm room. This fee:
• Covers a maximum of one dorm room
• Replaces Cedar Bucket's standard hourly moving rate and is not charged in
addition to it
Due to limited campus access windows and the high volume of move-ins occurring
simultaneously, Cedar Bucket does not assemble, mount, install, or place items in
specific locations within the dorm room. Cedar Bucket will deliver and drop items
inside your dorm room only. Customer acknowledges no setup, assembly, or placement
service is included with the early access fee.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STORAGE SERVICES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STORAGE RATES (2-MONTH MINIMUM)
All Cedar Bucket storage plans have a two (2) month minimum. If Customer stores items
for less than two months, Customer will still be charged the full two-month minimum.
Storage is billed in monthly increments — any storage term exceeding a full month by
even one (1) day will be billed as the next full month.
Monthly storage rates are subject to change. Lastest prices are available on the storage tab of our website.
For long-term storage needs extending beyond four months during the summer season
(May through August), please contact info@cedarbucket.com to request a custom quote.
STORAGE SIZE CONFIRMATION
Customer must confirm their storage unit size BEFORE their first service is completed
(and no later than the storage size confirmation deadline communicated by Cedar Bucket).
This size must account for both items moved by Cedar Bucket and any items shipped
through Cedar Bucket's Ship-to-Storage program.
Customer will be billed for the storage unit size reserved, even if the full space is
not used. If Customer's items exceed the reserved unit size, Customer will be upgraded
and billed for the next storage size up.
Storage Space Billing Policy
Cedar Bucket Storage & Delivery bills storage based on the maximum amount of storage space occupied by a client at any point during their storage term.
At the conclusion of the storage term, Cedar Bucket will evaluate the total space utilized by the client’s belongings. The largest storage unit size required to accommodate the client’s items during the storage period will determine the storage rate applied for the entire storage term.
For example, if a client initially occupies a 5x5 space but later adds items that increase their storage needs to a 5x10 space, the 5x10 storage rate will be applied retroactively to the full duration of the storage term.
This policy ensures fair and consistent billing by accounting for the total storage capacity reserved and utilized throughout the storage period.
ACCESS TO STORED ITEMS
Cedar Bucket reserves the right to refuse access to stored items at any time. All
items are securely stored in designated areas that are difficult to access once
organized for the storage term. Mid-term access is not available except in emergencies,
and any approved exception is subject to additional fees at Cedar Bucket's discretion.
Cedar Bucket cannot assist with or permit the transfer, sale, trade, or exchange of
stored items for any reason outside of the approved consignment process.
SHARED STORAGE UNITS
Customer may share a storage unit with a roommate or friend only if all items are
booked under one name and all items are picked up from and delivered to the same
location. Cedar Bucket processes billing as a single payment and does not split
payments between multiple individuals. Cedar Bucket is not responsible for separating,
identifying, or organizing items between individuals sharing a unit.
ON-SITE DROP-OFF POLICY
Cedar Bucket does not allow standard customer drop-offs at or pick-ups from its storage
facility. All moves and deliveries must be completed by Cedar Bucket crews to maintain
safety, security, and inventory tracking accuracy.
Limited exceptions may be approved for full-service storage clients only. Approved
drop-offs are subject to:
• $50-$100 drop-off fee
• Must be approved by Cedar Bucket in advance
• Must receive written confirmation prior to arrival
STORAGE TERM AND ABANDONED PROPERTY
Customer is responsible for retrieving stored items at the end of the agreed storage
term and for maintaining accurate contact information on file. Any stored property not
retrieved within the required pickup window may be considered abandoned. Cedar Bucket
reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to dispose of, donate, or otherwise
liquidate abandoned property without compensation to Customer. Customer remains
responsible for any unpaid balances, disposal fees, and costs associated with
abandoned items.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SHIP-TO-STORAGE PROGRAM
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cedar Bucket's Ship-to-Storage program allows customers to ship items directly to
Cedar Bucket's facility for inventorying and storage.
• Program start date: May 1st
• Shipping cutoff date: July 15th
• Items requiring assembly must be shipped and scheduled for assembly by June 15th
(limited availability; schedule in advance)
• $200 flat entry fee covers up to 10 packages received, inventoried, and stored

Ship items to: 979 Highway 6 W, Oxford, MS 38655
All packages must be labeled with the account holder's full name exactly as it appears
in Cedar Bucket's records. Cedar Bucket is not responsible for mis-deliveries, delays,
or lost items caused by incorrect labels, missing customer identification, or carrier
error.
If Customer's shipped packages or total stored inventory exceed Customer's reserved
storage size, Customer will be upgraded and billed for the next storage unit size. The
Ship-to-Storage entry fee will be collected on Invoice #2, once items arrive at the
warehouse. Billing begins once items arrive at Cedar Bucket's warehouse in May.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INVOICING SCHEDULE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cedar Bucket invoicing occurs in three phases:
• Invoice #1: $500 deposit to reserve your service and storage space.
• Invoice #2: Issued after your initial move is completed and items are received
at Cedar Bucket's storage facility. The $500 deposit is applied as a credit
toward this invoice. The Ship-to-Storage entry fee (if applicable) is also
collected on this invoice.
• Invoice #3: Issued after all final moving services (move-in) are completed.
This invoice reflects only the hourly moving charges for move-in day.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PAYMENT RESPONSIBILITY
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is the sole responsibility of Customer to ensure all payments are made according
to the terms agreed upon by Customer and Cedar Bucket. Failure to pay by the due date
will result in overdue charges, and failure to settle any outstanding balance within
30 days will result in a delinquent account.
By submitting payment information, placing a deposit, or engaging Cedar Bucket for
services, Customer authorizes Cedar Bucket to charge the payment method on file for
all amounts due, including but not limited to deposits, service balances, additional
labor, packing materials, storage overages, late fees, disposal fees, and any other
charges incurred in connection with Customer's services.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PACKING REQUIREMENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Customer is solely responsible for ensuring all items are properly packed, boxed,
wrapped, and protected prior to pickup, storage, or delivery. Cedar Bucket may refuse
to move, transport, or store any item not packed according to Cedar Bucket's packing
requirements. All packing materials are available at local Home Depot or Lowe's
locations. If unable to source materials, Cedar Bucket may provide them at additional
cost with advance notice.
Required packing standards:
• Mattress bags are required
• Everything that can be boxed must be boxed; unboxed items may result in
additional charges
• All unboxed items must be photographed by the customer prior to handoff
• Fabric and soft items must be wrapped and protected (stretch wrap, tissue paper,
foam, or bubble wrap)
• Glass, mirrors, and fragile items must be wrapped in bubble or foam wrap
• Desk-top glass and mirrors must have a correctly sized flattened cardboard box
sleeve taped at the ends
• Bed frames, TV mounts, and items with loose parts must be fully disassembled
prior to pickup, with all components secured and clearly labeled separately

handling, including oversized or fragile items. Cedar Bucket may refuse to move items
that are not securely packed or require additional precautions. Cedar Bucket is not
responsible for damage to items that are improperly packed, unsecured, or inadequately
protected.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LABELING AND INVENTORY TRACKING
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cedar Bucket uses barcode sticker labels and RFID tracking to track every item.
Unlabeled items are subject to being lost. Customized labels with Customer's
information will be delivered prior to the move. Customer must clearly label every
item using Cedar Bucket-provided labels for accurate tracking.
• If a label's adhesive does not stick to an item, the item must be wrapped or
boxed to accommodate the sticker
• If concerned about adhesive damaging paint or finishes, wrap the surface first
and apply the label to the wrapping
Cedar Bucket is not responsible for inventory errors or tracking issues resulting from
Customer's failure to label items properly.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SCHEDULED TIME WINDOWS AND ARRIVAL GRACE PERIOD
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Any scheduled moving, pickup, delivery, or early-access time is an estimated service
window and not a guaranteed arrival time. Cedar Bucket may arrive earlier or later
than the scheduled time due to traffic, weather, campus restrictions, staffing
constraints, high-volume scheduling periods, or other operational delays. Customer
agrees to allow a one (1) to two (2) hour grace window. Cedar Bucket will make
reasonable efforts to notify Customer when a crew is en route.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CUSTOMER PRESENCE REQUIREMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Either Customer or a designated representative must be present during moving services
unless Cedar Bucket approves an exception in writing. This ensures proper handling,
communication, and accountability for belongings.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
REFUNDS, LOST OR DAMAGED ITEMS, AND POST-SERVICE CLAIMS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cedar Bucket does not provide refunds for any reason once services have been rendered.
All sales are final. Deposits become non-refundable after 30 days from the date of
payment.
Cedar Bucket is not liable for any lost or damaged items. While Cedar Bucket may, at
its sole discretion, review certain cases on a case-by-case basis if compelling
evidence is presented, Cedar Bucket is under no obligation to offer compensation,
reimbursement, or replacement for any item or service.
Customers must report any inconsistencies, missing or damaged items, or inquiries
regarding stored property within fourteen (14) calendar days of the final completion
date of their last service. Requests or inquiries received after this two-week period
will not be reviewed or accommodated under any circumstance.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SAFETY AND SECURITY
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cedar Bucket is not responsible for any injuries, accidents, or damage to property or
persons that occur during or as a result of any moving or storage services. Customer
must ensure that all areas are prepared and safe for moving personnel to work.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

GENERAL CONDITIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Under the terms of this Consignment Agreement, the Consignor agrees to deliver goods
to be sold by Cedar Bucket. Cedar Bucket agrees to place the Consignor's merchandise
for sale and will remit 50% of the selling price to the Consignor. Acceptance of
merchandise for sale is at the sole discretion of Cedar Bucket.
This Agreement will remain in effect for all merchandise consigned until a new
Consignment Agreement is signed. The Consignor understands that while Cedar Bucket
will use its best efforts to sell the merchandise, there is no guarantee a sale will
occur.
In the event of litigation concerning this Agreement, the prevailing party shall
recover reasonable attorney's fees and costs, including any appeals.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SEASONAL CONSIGNMENT SCHEDULE AND TERM
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cedar Bucket will begin accepting consignment submissions starting in Spring 2026,
operating seasonally from March through the end of September each year. All accepted
consignment items must be received, displayed, and sold within this time frame.
All items consigned during the active season will remain under contract only until
September 30 of that same year, regardless of the submission date. For example, if a
Consignor submits an item in August, the consignment period ends at the end of
September.
After September, Cedar Bucket operates on a limited off-season schedule with reduced
storefront hours, staff, and customer traffic. Items cannot remain on display or in
inventory beyond the September 30 deadline.
New consignment submissions reopen in January for select May pickups. All sales must
go through Cedar Bucket's approved resale process.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MERCHANDISE PRICING AND ADJUSTMENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The initial selling price for consigned merchandise is established by Cedar Bucket
based on factors such as brand, age, condition, and market demand. Cedar Bucket
reserves full discretion to modify or adjust pricing at any time, including applying
markdowns, bundling items, or offering discounts to facilitate sales.
Cedar Bucket may also make repairs, improvements, or enhancements to items to increase
their marketability and may include the cost of such improvements in the item's final
listed or sale price. By consigning items, the Consignor grants Cedar Bucket full
authority over pricing, presentation, and sale decisions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ONLINE FORM AND RECORDKEEPING
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Each time merchandise is consigned, the Consignor must complete an online consignment
form including their name, address, phone number, account number, and a list of items
consigned. It is the Consignor's responsibility to review each submission for accuracy.
Cedar Bucket cannot be held liable for losses or errors resulting from incomplete or
inaccurate information.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CONSIGNMENT TERM DETAILS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The consignment term begins when an item is logged into Cedar Bucket's inventory
system. Merchandise not sold within 30 days may be subject to price reductions from
the original selling price to improve sell-through potential.
Consignors may not retrieve unsold items before the end of the seasonal term, which
concludes on September 30 of the same year.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CONSIGNMENT FEES AND PAYMENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Payouts to Consignors for the 2026 season will be issued no later than October 31,
following the close of the consignment period. Early payout requests may only be
considered upon written request and approval by Cedar Bucket staff.
The following fees are deducted from the Consignor's payment:
• 3% Credit Card Processing Fee when a consigned item is purchased by a customer
using a credit card (effective March 1, 2025)
• $1.00 processing fee for check payments
• $2.50 processing fee for direct deposit payments
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXPIRATION AND DISPOSITION OF UNSOLD MERCHANDISE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All consigned items not sold by September 30 must be picked up by the Consignor within
five (5) days after the end of the season. After October 1, Cedar Bucket reserves the
right to donate, re-consign as store-owned inventory, or dispose of unsold merchandise
at its sole discretion.
Failure to retrieve items within the stated window constitutes forfeiture of ownership,
and the Consignor releases Cedar Bucket from any further obligation or liability. It is
the responsibility of the Consignor to track the end of the consignment term and
arrange retrieval of unsold merchandise in a timely manner.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ITEMS LOST, STOLEN, OR DAMAGED
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All reasonable care will be taken with consigned items; however, all merchandise is
left at the Consignor's own risk. Cedar Bucket is not responsible for lost, stolen, or
damaged merchandise under any circumstance.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXCLUSIVE SALES AGREEMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Consignor agrees that any items consigned with Cedar Bucket may not be listed or
sold through any other platform, marketplace, or sales channel during the consignment
term. Items must remain exclusively available for sale through Cedar Bucket until the
term's expiration.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SELLING ITEMS OUT OF STORAGE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Customer may not sell, trade, or exchange items directly out of storage. Items may
only be sold through Cedar Bucket's approved consignment process and consignment floor,
subject to Cedar Bucket approval and policies. Direct selling, trading, or exchanging
items between other people is not allowed.
