FAQ: Go Mini's Atlanta vs. PODS®

Does Go Mini's have bigger containers than PODS®?

Yes. Go Mini's Atlanta offers a 20-foot container — a size PODS® doesn't offer at all. Our largest unit gives you roughly 235 more cubic feet of space than PODS®'s largest container, which is enough for an extra room's worth of furniture. Even our smaller 12-foot and 16-foot units hold more than PODS®'s comparable sizes, so in many cases you'll need fewer containers with us to move the same amount.

Is Go Mini's cheaper than PODS®?

Go Mini's Atlanta guarantees the lowest price on comparable portable storage in the Metro Atlanta area — we'll beat any verified quote the day you order. Because our containers hold more, most customers also need fewer units than they would with PODS®, which lowers the total cost further.

Is Go Mini's a franchise like PODS®?

No. Go Mini's Atlanta is locally owned and operated, not a corporate franchise location. That means the person handling your questions or concerns is a local operator who knows the Atlanta area, not a call center.

How does delivery work differently with Go Mini's vs. PODS®?

Go Mini's containers only need 6 inches of clearance on each side (9 feet total), compared to PODS®'s 2 feet per side (12 feet total). That means we can fit a container into tighter driveways or place two containers closer together. Our delivery system also uses padded wheels to roll the container into place without damaging your driveway or jostling your belongings.

Are Go Mini's containers made of the same material as PODS®?

No. Go Mini's containers are built from smooth, powder-coated steel. PODS® containers use treated lumber for walls and support beams, which is more prone to splintering, odor, mold, and mildew over time — especially during longer storage periods.

Does Go Mini's have more tie-down points than PODS®?

Yes, for comparable sizes. Our 16-foot containers have 25% more tie-down points than PODS®'s 16-foot units, giving you more ways to secure items for transport. We also do the driving ourselves, so you're not the one navigating the road with a loaded container.

Why do Atlanta-area customers choose Go Mini's over PODS®?

The combination: more space per container, a lowest-price guarantee, local ownership and accountability, easier delivery in tight spaces, steel construction instead of wood, and more secure tie-downs for transport. For most moves, that adds up to fewer containers, lower cost, and less hassle than going with PODS®.
