It is no secret that portable storage pods are a very popular storage option for many. Their demand can easily be evidenced by simply looking around in your neighborhood as odds are good you will see or two fairly quickly. The interest in these has risen to the point where they have become a preferred item over other options. However, even with all this interest, they are not without their own problems or issues. Here, we take a look at a few of these issues and what you can do about them.
Storage pods have difficulty in extreme temperatures.
This will be intuitive to many people who recognize that any portable storage will have its limits. In extreme temperatures, these containers suffer in performance. However, they do turn out to do really well in a pretty broad temperature including fairly cold temperatures and very hot temperatures. But if you find that the temperature gets too hot or cold in your area, we suggest that you have the container moved to a climate controlled facility. Most of the container companies have this option and you should take advantage of this option at times when the temperature really goes beyond what these containers are designed for.
The Best Choice for You
In order to decide which moving method is right for you, weigh the pros and cons of each choice. For one person, a pod may be the right decision. For another person, moving in the back of a pick-up truck or a rented truck may be the right choice.
No matter your choice of moving method, call around to different providers to ensure you are getting the best rate for the best service. For the pod moving method, there are many providers, including (but not limited to): PODS (Portable On Demand Storage), UPack and SAM.
