Portable Storage is fast becoming the preferred method of household transportation across the United States. The system has developed over years because of some disadvantages perceived in the traditional transportation business. The traditional transportation model required a person to book a trucking company in advance, with fixed times for loading and unloading at the new destination. If the customer had a housing problem at the new destination, the traditional trucking system had no answer and the customer had to find a friends house to store his belongings or book into expensive warehouses. Portable Storage systems resolve this problem. Portable Storage in comes in two forms; moving services and storage services. In the moving services, portable storage units are delivered at the customers residence. Contractual flexibility allows the customer to load and unload the items flexi-time. Unlike the traditional Truck based system, portable storage units do not require ramps as they are ergonomically designed. The variety of containers is far more than the variety afforded by traditional trucks. For example, Portable Storage companies offer containers of differing sizes such as 5X5 feet sized container for loading belongings from a studio flat, 5X10 feet sized container for a one bedroom apartment, 10X15 feet for two/three bedroom apartment, 10X20 feet for a three/four bedroom apartment and a 10X30 feet for a larger house. Thus the customer has the flexibility to choose from a range of sizes according to his requirements. Even during the move, the Portable Storage units loaded on trucks are kept under constant surveillance by incorporating the latest in GPS tracking technology, so the customer know the position of his luggage at all times. The storing component of portable storage system offers to store the customers luggage securely at company warehouses till asked for by the customer. This gives the customer time to arrange for a new house or a new storing place at his new destination which was not the case with traditional trucking services. Of course these services come at a price but this is competitive when taking into consideration the troubles one would have had to undergo in case such a storage option was not available at the new destination. Other services offered by portable storage companies include storage of a customers car or boat. Portable storage companies even provide home portable storage solutions to store wines under controlled environment. Portable Storage has thus evolved into a diverse business ... a new innovation in the transportation field.
