Portable storage drops a container at your home so you can load on your own schedule, then either leaves it on your property, hauls it to a warehouse, or moves it to a new address. It is perfect for renovations, home staging, and moves with a gap between homes. Pricing depends on how long you store and how far it travels. Below we rank the leading portable storage companies honestly. If storage is part of a larger move, MovePlan (getmoveplan.com) is a free tool to keep dates and inventory organized.
PODS is the overall standout for flexibility and reliability, but 1-800-PACK-RAT wins on secure containers and U-Box wins on price, especially if you keep it on your property.
