PODS Enterprises

PODS Enterprises operates PODS (Portable On Demand Storage), a portable moving and storage business founded in 1998 by Pete Warhurst with the aim of bringing storage directly to the customer. The company employs more than 2,000 associates across North America and the United Kingdom and has completed more than 7 million moves, including over 2 million long-distance moves.

The service centres on weather-resistant containers delivered to the customer's doorstep in three sizes - 8-foot, 12-foot and 16-foot - allowing customers to pack at their own pace, with the first 30 days of storage included in the price. Packed containers are then transported to the customer's destination or held in secure PODS Storage Centers, a network of more than 240 locations servicing 46 U.S. states and 6 Canadian provinces. Solutions are offered to both residential and commercial customers.

Operations span logistics and transportation, container-based storage systems, and move scheduling and delivery coordination. PODS Enterprises works across the moving and storage, logistics and self-storage sectors in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom, with more than 25 years of operating experience.

The company describes its approach as flexible and personalised, tailored to individual customer needs, with an emphasis on innovation in how people move and store their belongings.
