I'm thinking of using PODs also, but I have a couple of questions:
How do you decide if you need more than one POD? Something tells me that if I need more than one I'm taking way too much. Plan A was to buy all new furniture when I got down there so I thought one POD would be sufficient. But I just realized that I could be eating, sitting and sleeping on the floor for quite awhile if I buy things that are not in stock. So on to Plan B - take some basic furniture - a bedroom set, kitchen table and chairs , patio furniture and a sofa.
If you use more than one POD do they all have to be delivered on the same day?
How did you find someone to pack on your end and unpack in TV?
And did you mean they filled the boxes or did you do that and they loaded the POD? I'm thinking of using plastic storage containers as much as possible - then I'll have someplace to store the stuff I will realize I didn't need to bring in the first place.
Luckily a nearby church is having a huge garage sale at the end of April and they will come and pick up my donations. The timing couldn't be better.
