Mrs Mike was pricey . I’m moving to Texas from Cali and we want to do our research with moving companies we heard POD was good

Jessica Franklyn we moved 10 yrs ago, and at the time, upack was the most cost effective for the size space that we needed. I’ve heard great things about pods as well but they were much more expensive at the time for all that we needed to move. Of course I haven’t priced any of them lately, lol, so I have no idea. Good luck with your move!

I strongly recommend that you use someone other than U-Pack. We had a trailer delivery scheduled many weeks in advance. We had scheduled movers for the following day to load the trailer. On the DAY OF the trailer delivery, U-Pack called to tell us that no trailers were available and that we would have to reschedule. This is completely unacceptable as it threw our entire moving schedule into disarray. It affected the listing date of our house, our children's start date at school, and many other events that were dependent on our moving date. Do not use U-Pack unless you want to live on the edge.

@@prestonphillips3375 Are you familiar with the concept of "reviews", Preston? What happens is this: people post their experiences with a product or service. They write things like "I really liked this product" or "I had a bad experience with this service." Other people read those "reviews" and make an informed decision about whether they should purchase the product or service. You should ask your Social Studies teacher and parents if you want to learn more about reviews.

We're moving to TN from IN and looked at several of these services. We decided to just buy a cargo trailer so we'd have all the time we need to pack it, move it and then we'll have all the time we need to unpack it as well. We already have a buyer for the trailer at the price we paid for it and we haven't even moved yet. So other than gas, we'll have no cost in the move. Of course we're not taking an entire house either, but will make two trips... :-)

Thanks very much for the video. I have been looking into PODS but came across your video. 2 - 16' PODS would cost me about $7900, while a full U-Pack trailer would cost about $6000. The only difference is the amount of time you have to load/unload. U-Pack would seem like the way to go if we can get organized enough to load within 3 days and actually have a finalized place to move to where we can unload to.
