Did you have to pack your own POD, or do they provide packers?
How long can the POD stay on the delivery end before it has to be returned?

Thanks for the answers to these two questions and any other information you care to give.
We used PODS to move down here. We filled one large POD ourself, before we listed our house, to get rid of a lot of the clutter. They took it away and stored it. When we sold the house, we had 2 more PODS We packed everything up in the house but used hireahelper.com to load the PODS. I have a bad back and we had a lot of stairs in our old house. They did a great job and the price was decent. We had to live in a rental for a month down here so PODS were really our only option. The PODS got stored in Ocala and when we were ready for them, they delivered them. Again, we hired hireahelper.com and they unloaded the PODS for us and brought everything into the garage or house. The PODS were taken back and we took our time unboxing everything.
