Portable storage?

Welcome to the self storage blog, PhoneSmart’s window into the world of self storage.

We get to talk to a lot of people about storage every day. This means we catch trends as they are taking shape. We have seen some steady demand for portable pick up and delivery storage. I can’t say that we see more of it than we did last year, but sometimes people call one of our client’s self storage sites looking for portable storage.

P.O.D.S has had some success in making its name well known. Many times callers even refer to mobile storage as pods. Here is a funny twist to this tale. Callers are confusing storage pod containers with the Apple i-Pod. We have had several calls recently where the caller has asked if we have the “i-pods” for storage.

We ask a few questions to make sure they are looking for mobile storage and not the music system. And, yes, they are looking for portable mobile storage. You have to laugh at this sort of thing, but it does give you an idea of the power of names and “Key words”.
