I'm always concerned about using something like PODS because the movers you get might be off the street and have no idea what they're doing.
I'm lucky because I have very little appreciation for furniture. I would never wait months for a sofa or chair to arrive from anywhere. Some people will wait 4 months for something because the store doesn't have the exact color they want. I can sit or sleep on just about anything. Paying a moving company $7,000 to move my stuff thousands of miles sounds totally absurd to me.
