The Dorm Concierge service expands on Pottery Barn Teen’s robust customer service offerings, which currently include free design services, a convenient mobile app, a bedding visualizer tool and a wishlist feature for room planning. Customers who utilize the new Dorm Concierge service are assigned a dedicated customer service representative upon selecting Pick Up Near CampusTM when placing a dorm order.

Once a customer has checked out and opted to Pick Up Near CampusTM, the Dorm Concierge representative will reach out via email to provide personalized updates, coordinate logistics, and handle any last-minute adjustments to the order.
