Let Someone Else Do the Driving with Pods Storage
 
   

I have helped move friends a thousand times, and I cannot tell you how I wished there was something like pods storage back then. Most of those moves were in college or graduate school when we were poor students. The moves usually involved beer, pizza and a U Haul truck. We usually had to help said friend pack and convince them to throw various things away that just would not fit in the truck. We would load everything in the truck, then have to drive that thing down the road. I am still flabbergasted by the fact that these companies let regular people with regular drivers licenses drive these HUGE trucks down the road without any training. You hear everything crash down in the back as soon as that truck hits the road, and you know your friend wishes she would have let someone else drive. Who knew you should not just put the TV on a box stacked high on that overstuffed chair? At that precise moment, you all wish there was such a thing as pods storage and you could have left the driving to someone else.

I now pay professional people to move me, which makes my friends and me very happy. It is expensive, though, and you have to have your act together. You can pay someone to pack up your entire house and move you, or you can have your stuff packed and have the movers take care of the rest. Either way, it is a rushed and harried process. If you decide to pack everything yourself, the movers will arrive and start packing anything they see. After my first professional move, I found a very lightweight, but HUGE box, filled with various shoes that had all been individually wrapped with an enormous amount of paper. Most movers get paid for every bit of packing material they use, as well as the time it takes to do everything. Again, I wish I would have known about pods storage as an option.

I live in a big city and have been seeing these pods storage boxes all over the last 5 years or so.I figured it was for people who did not want to pay for the full monte on the moving spectrum. Then I was personally introduced to the world of pods storage via some friends who needed to move back to the West Coast. We helped pack their kitchen, living room and bedroom in an afternoon. We took most of the boxes down the stairwell to the pods storage box parked out on the street. The storage unit was outside their apartment for a week, so they were able to slowly take thing downstairs and get them organized in the thing. It had a huge system of locks and was very sturdy. No one could get into the thing unless he had a forklift and just wanted to take the whole thing. Whatever was too heavy or cumbersome to take care of ourselves, was moved into the pods storage cube by some people they hired. The pods storage box was picked up by the moving company that owned it, and off their belongings went to California. Our friends did not have to drive a truck or have a rushed day of movers at their apartment. See, pods storage is for grown ups too. You might still have to spring for beer for your friends.
