| We do not have a garage. Does a pod in front of the house look tacky? |
| You mean your personal furniture that you don’t want in the house while you’re showing it? If that’s what you mean you should hire a moving company to take it to offsite storage. Various options for this |
| PODS will also store offsite. |
| You can do a POD or rent a storage unit. |
| Offsite storage unit. |
POD or similar, store offsite. |
| Rent storage unit or store at a forked or parents house. |
| If I looked at a house with a POD right out front I would wonder if the current owners are hoarders that had to quickly move all the stuff out to get it presentable. Then I'd wonder if there was any of the typical deferred maintenance/other issues that come up in hoarder homes. Most likely I wouldn't even bother getting out of the car. |

| DO NOT keep a pod in front of your house! |
| Moving is often a time when it's good to re-evaluate your belongings. Make sure you're not paying to store and move something you don't even really want anymore. |
And while you were doing all that someone else would buy the house. |
| We rented a storage unit until we moved into our new house. |
Use the pod. They remove it and bring it back when you need it. |
Then they have more expertise, funds, and time to spend in completely gutting, renovating, and flipping hoarder homes than I do. That's great, but a good percentage of home buyers are looking to move into a home shortly after purchase, not spend 6+ months fixing issues to make it habitable. |
