<p>If you use the architecture students, you can pay a fee (when you arrange to have the lofts installed) to have them disassemble and remove the loft materials at the end of the year. My son did this this year. The only problem is that they came to disassemble the loft about a week and a half before my son was finished with finals, so his room suddenly became much more crowded (he and his roommate stored a lot of things under their lofts).</p>
