I used a POD to move from Virginia. We had not bought a house here, and was going to rent for couple of months. I was looking at truck rental, gas for car and truck, then rent storeage(unload and load truck again when I bought house). The POD you can take your time to load and unload. It is right on the ground so no lifting up and down from truck. My wife and I did it with help from a friend. We also had them store the POD until we were ready for it. They can put them anywhere, and compared to other types PODs are lifted up and down level so there is no shifting. You can get 12 and 16 foot. We used a 16 and you would not believe how much it can carry. 8ft wide x 8ft high and 16 ft long. You tie off every 4ft. For move from Virginia with 2 months storeage was about $2300, but well worth it in our case.
