What Are PODS and Why Their the Best Packing System
So now your probably wondering what exactly is a moving pod and what are the main advantages of this type of moving over door to door movers. The easiest way to explain this is to tell you what the word “PODS” means which is Portable On-Demand Storage.
A pod is basically is storage container that is delivered to your home, you pack it at your leisure; it is then picked up again and taken to your new home or place of employment. It can be moved or stored up to thirty days. The difference with door to door movers is that you need your house or business contents loaded and unloaded as soon as possible to avoid a hefty bill.
Door to door movers rates are at their highest in the summer months. This is due to the higher demand of people relocating. This is why moving Pods come in handy because you can take your time packing and unpacking.
If you are moving over a long distance, compare the PODS quote carefully with other moving solutions and ask yourself whether the convenience of PODS is worth paying for. Always make sure you get all moving quotes in writing for your protection.
Make sure that your moving quotes include all taxes and other possible charges as stairs, long carry, shuttle service, assembling disassembling of beds, packing materials, moving pads, packing labor etc. so that you have absolutely no surprises. Let movers compete for your business because they need the work.
