moving - PODS vs truck vs other

Pods definitely costs more, but was very good when I used them about 6 years ago. The availability of longer load/unload and possible storage is nice, but at any rate they were reliable and everything made it there safely and at the promised times.

BTW, most local moving companies will hire out guys for a minimum of an hour or two for packing or unloading the big items. I did this too for the loading end big items only, and I think it was something around 80-100.
