So I saw this
news article about a PODS facility that had a mini flood outside their
warehouse. The article is here for
you to review and I will be quoting directly from this source a bit.
Obviously it
is an awful thought for anyone who has their storage possessions get destroyed
by flood or any other mishap. And I feel
for these PODS customers. I would wish
this on nobody. So what can you do to
prevent this from happening to you?
First, you must use common sense.
Second you must ask questions of your storage provider.
USE COMMON SENSE & ASK QUESTIONS:
Portable
storage containers are all over the place, they come in all shapes and sizes
and are constructed in many different ways.
If you ever happen to drive by the actual storage location, you will
most definitely see many PODS staged outside.
Ask yourself whether those are full or empty. Ask yourself whether you would expect your
POD to be stored inside. If you are in
the market for portable storage, ask your provider very specifically where your
unit will be stored. Ask for an address. Go look at the facility. Ask whether your storage unit will ever be
stored outside. Then ask yourself if
their answer is acceptable to you.
FLOODED PODS CONTAINERS
This linked article
states that:
Customers are upset at PODS, a company that offers portable
containers for moving and storage, which admits it left 52 of the units outside
in a monsoonal rainstorm earlier this month.
And that:
The containers flooded because they were left in the parking
lot on Aug. 3 while the warehouse was being rearranged.
And:
the PODS website advertises that "PODS
Storage Centers are clean, safe and dry."
ARE PODS CONTAINERS STORED OUTSIDE?
Which of the following scenarios is most likely?
A)
PODS needed to rearrange some things in the
warehouse and therefore quickly moved 52 containers at 5,000 lbs each totaling
over 100 tons of containers to the parking lot and had plans to move them all
back inside the warehouse before the end of the fork lift drivers shift, but
all of a sudden the heavens opened up and without any advanced notice there was
8 inches of water surrounding all 52 PODS before the fork lift driver could
finish the rearrangement and move them back inside to safety.
B)
PODS stored the units outside for some period
of time.
C)
PODS Storage Centers are always clean, safe and
dry.
You be the judge… Whichever is true, you as a storage
customer need to know where your things are being stored. You need to read the contract that you are
signing. You need to know whether your
things are insured. You are storing your
things because they are important enough to store and presumably you want them
back safe and sound. If you don’t know
where your things are being stored, how can you be confident that they are
safe?
Thanks for the info! I am about to be a first time user of the storage units. I think that the guys at Island Movers do a pretty good job. What do you think of the way they do things?
