10 May 06 PODS (Portable On Demand Storage)

Portable On Demand Storage is a great concept and PODS is a great brand! We’re preparing for our move to Chicago and need to get a bunch of stuff out of the house for staging purposes. We’re hoping for a reasonably quick sale.

The movers won’t make two trips, at least not at a price we can pay. What’s the answer? PODS!

They drop a container off at our house. We load it. They pick it up when we call them. They then ship it out of state and store it in Chicago. When we’ve found our new house we call and they drop it off in the driveway. All this costs a lot less than any moving storage company I’ve been able to find.

No I’m not affiliated with PODS but they do sem to be franchising quite successfully. Competition is up and coming but PODS seems well established with a brand that has great potential. Of course quality control in a franchising environment can be challenging.

    Please contact me. Would like to use this pic for some editorial content. Is it yours or did it come from PODS?

    I just used a pod unit too and it was very convenient. I also saved almost 10% by using a pods promo code when I ordered (found at http://www.podspromocode.com )
