A POD is made of wood!

And it should be! The whole point of storage is to protect you belongings and mobile containers, specifically wood ones, have advantages that help protect your belongings and make sure they are in the same condition that you left them in. We use a different style of wooden containers (see related post Many options for portable storage) Here are a couple reasons why wood is good:

• Wood breathes which helps protect items inside from changes in temperature and humidity. Rising humidity can create condensation inside storage containers made from different materials, such as metal. This condensation can then cause water damage to stored belongings.
• Weather proof covers protect your valuable from rain, wind and snow while giving you easy access to you all of your belongings. Our units also sit on pressure treated "feet" to protect against ground water seeping up through the bottom of the unit while still allowing ground level loading.
• Wood is also a great building material and easily modified. You can easily add or move tie downs in a wooden so that you're items are secure and safe in transit.

Mobile storage saves a lot of time and effort, but it's important to remember that it, first and foremost, should protect your belongings. And in that vein, wood is good! Happy storing!
