No, they’re not the little green cases your peas come in, but the idea is similar. PODS stands for Portable On Demand Storage and these storage units are just that. They are self-contained units that you pack like a moving truck, but you don’t have to do the driving. They’re the perfect solution for do-it-yourselfers who don’t want to suffer the nerve-racking experience of driving a rental truck. These containers come in three sizes to fit everything you need to store or move. You can choose a 7 x 7 x 8, 8 x 8 x 12, or 8 x 8 x 16. This is like the difference between a pickup bed, a box truck and a full sized moving truck. PODS Containers are great because you can load, unload and move anything you want, almost anywhere you want, any time you choose. All you have to do is call up the PODS franchise and they come out to pick up the unit in their specialized trucks. These trucks have a special lifting fork attached that lets them pick up and transfer your PODS container with very little shifting to your things inside. These storage units are so much easier to load than a truck because they sit on the ground. No more walking up a rickety ramp, watching every step you take to avoid an injury or dropping something valuable. You just walk in and out, just like moving things from one room in your home to another. It’s faster, safer and takes a lot less effort. You can even let the kids help without worrying. You can also take your time loading a PODS container because they are “On Demand.” You don’t have to worry about a mover’s schedule fitting in with your time scale. The company will drop of your PODS container and you can take all year to move if that’s what you want to do. These containers are weather tight and stand up to all sorts of weather conditions, so it’s like having a shed for your things that you can easily pick up and move any time you want. If you need to keep your stuff stored for a long period of time and you don’t want the container in your yard, the PODS company will move your container to their secure storage facility. Just like with self-storage, you are the only one with access to the PODS container. Facilities are monitored by security equipment, keeping your property safe in storage until you need it. Plus, you don’t have to load up your car or truck, drive it home and then unload it. You just call your PODS company and they will bring the storage unit to your house, even if that means they have to travel across country to reach you in a new home. You can then unload the container just as easily as you loaded it, with the least amount of fuss. You don’t have to drive a scary moving truck and you don’t have to pay a lot of money for someone else to load or unload your things. ...read more

Innovation is the act of introducing something new. That’s just what PODS containers did for the moving and storage industry. By taking the idea of a self-storage unit and making it portable, these containers changed everything. They created an affordable way for people to get help with self-storage items, moving them with minimal effort. PODS made scheduling your loading, unloading, moving and storage easier and more convenient. Before PODS, movers had two choices. If you were moving from one house to another, you had to load everything into a moving truck yourself and then drive the unfamiliar rickety old truck to your new home. Or you could hire a moving company to do the loading and driving and unloading for you. The difference in price for these two options was significant, so most of us were stuck doing everything ourselves. If you were just looking for storage, maybe for your winter gear during the summer, you had to pack everything into your car or truck, drive it to self storage and unload it all back into the self-storage unit. Now there is a happy median for movers and an easier solution for those needing seasonal or long term storage. PODS containers helped movers find the middle road, offering an affordable alternative to loading and driving a moving truck. All you have to do is call the PODS franchise and the container is delivered to your driveway the next day. You load your things into the container, taking as much time as you need, and call them to get the PODS unit when you are done. Whether you keep the container for one day or 30, the price is the same, so you can take your time. Then you call the storage company to pick up the PODS container and they will take it to storage for you or move it to your new home; whichever you decide. Moving is stressful enough without adding obstacles. Rental trucks are just another hassle you don’t need. You have to worry about loading all your boxes up a rickety ramp in the back. Heavy furniture on dollies are a lot easier to load with a PODS container because the unit is place on level ground in your driveway. It’s easier on your back, your legs and your peace of mind. Then when you finally have everything loaded, you have to drive a big truck you are not familiar with over roads you have never traveled. When you let PODS do the driving, you have a lot less to worry about. And if you end up with a gap between the time you need to move and when your new home is ready, there is no problem getting your PODS unit stored at the storage company’s facility. Before PODS, if such a situation arose, you had to move twice…once to your temporary housing and then again to your new home. Now you can just take a few things you need from the PODS container and send everything else into storage. What could be easier than that? ...read more
