I hate to sound like a bore, you WILL regret it when they're just another thing to fit in the car Tetris-style when it's time to go home. Really.
All my shiz + Range Rover = no problemo
Tbh I travel fairly light anyway, i'm trying to reduce the packing list to things i definitely use everyday and other things like fairly lights and photos to make it more familiar.
I keep having to restrain myself from awesome stuff I think I need to bring -but really don't!- e.g Surfboard, Harman Kardon speakers (so big! *whimpers* ) playstation, guitar, cat etc
I'd love to risk 'stealth-fairy-lights' but really, if the things did catch fire there would probably be hell to pay! (This actually happened to a friend- Go value fairy lights!)
An ailing 405 estate of 15 years managed to take my worldly possessions back with me - I can't stress enough just how useful Tesco's flip-lock crate style boxes are! Managed to fit everything in, however rear view mirror was rendered absolutely useless and braking was a bit 'hope and prayers' at times. God knows how I'm going to fit it all in to a Lafrowda room next year!
Yes, you're allowed straighteners. Ignore the contract if it says you're not allowed them 
Just be sensible and it'll be fine.
And I do agree about the fairy lights, actually - not only do they take up unnecessary space when packing (believe me, you'll be grateful), many of them are bought very cheaply, often off market stalls, and sometimes overseas, so may be electrically unsafe (unlike hair straighteners which are more likely to come from reputable suppliers).

if you're in catered and have nice cleaners then you can pretty much take what you like, the only way you will get caught is if you set the fire alarm off. they never once inspected my room in birks, i know what person on my corridor had one of those vegetable steamer thingys for the last term 
Phew, so straighteners are okay. I dunno where I heard it but someone said that you couldn't take them to uni, but they weren't going to Exeter so maybe its different for different places. My mums bf is a carpet fitter, so I'm gonna travel down in his van lol, there's loads of space in it!
