Boarding School Trunks

The Boarding School Essentials: Trunks Built for a Lifetime

Since 1938, Mossman has been the trusted name in British boarding schools. We understand that a school trunk needs to be more than just storage; it needs to be a seat, a desk, a security vault for valuables, and a durable companion that survives years of travel.

Our dedicated Boarding School Collection brings together everything a student needs to stay organised:

Traditional Tuck Boxes: The classic "lock-box" for snacks, stationery, and personal treasures.

Steamer Trunks: The perfect mid-size storage for uniforms, sports kit, and towels.

The King Trunk: Our largest capacity option, ideal for international students or those bringing bulky bedding and winter coats.

Why choose Mossman for school?

Custom School Colours: Choose from our wide range of PVC finishes to match your house or school colours.

Security First: Every trunk features a central lockable catch to keep belongings safe in shared dormitories.

British Craftsmanship: Hand-built in our Cambridgeshire workshop using traditional 5.5mm plywood and reinforced metal edges.
