If you Google pods storage you will find information on that company . The franchises own their own trucks for local work . They do use brokers for long shipments of pods but they don't lease on contractors .
-
Is anyone here hauling for them and can provide some info?
-
Hauled one unit as LTL at cheap rate but had the room and getting TL rate on other stuff. I have tried to put together several of these to create a TL but combined rate if it was one pick one drop would be cheap. Only way I see it working is if can get something else on that pays well.
All I have seen lately is local company stuff and no "PODS" trucks.
Good luck. -
Did roll off dumpsters residential / commercial for years.Thought my job sucked.
Those pods placed in any area imaginable for crap pay. These guys are under paid.
Those trucks delivering and picking up aren't small. I can't imagine the headaches these guys put up with.
Bad enough residential dumpster service the customers were picky morons. complaining about the petty bull crap.
boo hoo what do you expect a 15 ton truck picking up a 20 yard dumpster filled with concrete. Of course it is going crack some drive ways @ 72,000.
These POD drivers deliver to the front door in a CDL truck. That arent light weights. Messing up lawns ETC...
Around my area $13hr
Edit: hauling over the road PODS . My mistake.Last edited: Sep 24, 2011

I've seen flatbeds hauling them. I'm curious what the pay is. I figure it was pretty lowballed.
-
Ive seen CRE hauling pods on a flat, bet there doing it for next to nothing
-
Sailboat fuel pays better than PODS.
Shaggy Thanks this. -
