Moving pods?

[surrealestate.livejournal.com]

Has anyone ever used one of those pod-type moving things for a local move? We are moving soon and it feels like it'd be easier to be able to pack incrementally into those, but I don't know if it's worth the added cost. I'm hoping somebody else has done a thorough comparison of the various pod companies already. :) This would be just to move locally, not to store in between.

Yup, I did! It ended up being pretty expensive only because I was really really lazy about unpacking at the other end and ended up treating the pod as a storage shed for several months. (I think it was something like $200 or $250/mo. in addition to the moving/dropoff/pickup costs.) For a responsible adult, I think it would be pretty reasonable. :-)
