PODs Delivered, Loaded & Stored in San Diego

We bring the container to your driveway, you load it on your schedule or hand the job to our crew, and when the doors close we pick it up: store it in our secure San Diego facility, keep it at your place, or deliver it straight to your next address.

How our pod service works

It runs in three moves. We schedule a delivery and set the container where you want it, on the driveway, in front of the garage, wherever access allows. You load it at your own pace, days or weeks, no meter running on a truck. When you are ready, we pick it up and it goes where you tell us: into secure storage, on to your new address anywhere in San Diego County, or it simply stays at your place as on-site storage while a remodel or a staging project runs its course.

The containers themselves are built for this: 8 feet long by 5 feet wide by 7 feet high, roughly 40 square feet of packing floor each. They are wood-bodied rather than steel, which matters more than it sounds: wood breathes and helps regulate humidity, which reduces the risk of mold and mildew on furniture and fabrics, and there is nothing to rust or corrode. Most one-bedroom homes fit in one to two containers; a full house typically runs three or four.

Straight pod pricing, no decoder ring

Storage runs per container, per month: $198 month to month, or $178 a month when you book a 12-month term. A one-bedroom in two containers is $396 a month with zero commitment; a full four-container house runs $712 to $792 a month depending on term. Delivery and pickup is $198 round trip, and we waive the initial delivery when your storage runs four months or longer.

Container storage: $198/month each, or $178/month each on a 12-month term
Delivery & pickup: $198 round trip, initial delivery free on 4+ month terms
Crew loading or unloading: standard hourly crew rates, quoted with your container
On-site use (container stays at your place): same monthly rate, no facility fees

Load it yourself, or hand it to the crew

Here is where a moving company doing pods beats a storage company doing them: the crew. Load it yourself if you like, that is the whole point of a pod. But if you want it done in two hours instead of two weekends, the same movers who load our trucks will load your container: tight tiers, weight low and spread, furniture padded and shrink-wrapped, every section strapped before the doors close. A pod only protects what cannot move inside it.

Same offer on the far end. When your container lands at the new place, our crew can unload it and put furniture where it belongs instead of where gravity leaves it.

Stored here, not lost somewhere

Containers we pick up go into our secure San Diego facility, and your stuff stays reachable: give us two hours notice and you can get into your container any day between 10 in the morning and 3 in the afternoon, no charge for the visit. Delivery and pickup run countywide, from Chula Vista up through Carlsbad, Escondido, and El Cajon.

And if you already rented a container from someone else, PODS, 1-800-Pack-Rat, U-Haul U-Box, Zippy Shell, we will still load or unload it for you the same way. The container is the box; the loading is the craft.

How to get ready for delivery day

Pick the spot: level ground with the container doors facing your clearest carry path
Check clearance: low branches, gates, and HOA rules before the truck arrives
Load heavy items first, low and spread across the floor
Keep a gap-free wall of boxes and strap points as you go, or let our crew handle it
Tell us early if the container will sit on the street, some areas need a permit and we will point you to it

How big are the containers and how many do I need?

Can I get into my container while it is stored?
Yes. Call two hours ahead and you can access it any day between 10am and 3pm at our San Diego facility, at no charge.
Can your crew load the pod for me?
That is our favorite part of the job. The same crews that load our trucks will pack your container tight, padded, and strapped, usually in a couple of hours.
I already have a PODS or U-Box container. Will you load it?
Yes. We load and unload every major brand of portable container, plus rental trucks and trailers, with the same tight-tier, strap-it-down method.
