PODS History
Founded in 1998, Portable On Demand Storage (PODS) is a corporation established in Pinellas County, Florida. PODS revolutionized the moving and storage industry by originating the concept of transporting mobile storage containers directly to the customer at their convenience to pack at their leisure.
The PODS brand container, designed by the company’s founders, is delivered and placed at ground level for easy packing and unpacking. An engineer’s certification confirms that the sturdy, weather-resistant container (partially full) can withstand a wind velocity of up to 110 miles per hour.
The convenient, cost-effective service is unique in that the delivery process is completed utilizing a hydraulic lift system, which is patented and only available with PODS. The lift is designed to significantly reduce shift in contents and securely transport PODS brand containers to a dry and secure storage facility or from state to state.
Use PODS for short or long-term storage or for local, interim or inter-franchise moves. PODS is the efficient method for consumers and businesses who wish to effortlessly move or store their possessions without the hassle or expense of traditional truck rental, storage facilities and moving companies.
