We’re living in some challenging times, make no mistake. With the rise of the Coronavirus pandemic, many people have seen their lives change as they try to stay safe. However, even with the virus outbreak, said people still have things to take care of. What if, for example, you need to move?

Whether the transition is nearby or over a long distance, mobile pods can be a helpful solution, especially during the COVID-19 outbreak. 

If you’re moving a business or home, here’s several ways mobile storage pods help during the COVID-19 problem.

Reduced physical contact

Moving’s no easy task. Whether as a business or transitioning to a new home, the obstacles of time, money, and physical storage are a few of the challenges expected. Even more so if you have to move to another part of your state.

For some, choosing a typical transport option simply isn’t practical. So what alternatives exist? Fortunately, many utilize mobile storage pods to assist them when transporting items across long distances.

What is a mobile pod?

Think of a mobile pod like a storage unit “on the go.” You get the luxury of additional space without being confined to a single area.

Recently, Mobile Attic talked about the various ways our storage pods made for convenient alternatives to traditional storage. But cleaning supplies present challenges because of their chemical nature. Depending on the inventory, chemicals, and use, improper storage of cleaning agents can present serious health risk. That’s because chemicals can cause burns, create toxic vapors, and otherwise damage people or property.

To make sure you’re safe and worry free, we have some essential steps to follow when stowing away cleaning chemicals, whether that’s in a pod or otherwise.

Organize before storage

It’s important to separate and organize cleaning agents and supplies in separate bins,

Did you know that portable storage solutions aren’t only for interior items, equipment, and stock storage? You can also utilize them for transporting and storing cleaning itinerary, a convenient solution for the sanitation industry. If you’ve never considered a mobile pod for stowing sanitation supplies, we’ll break down some of the major benefits in doing so!

You’re no stranger to Coronavirus if you live in the United States. As of now the pandemic continues to grow and the only solution, according to the CDC, is to stay indoors and reduce social exposure as much as possible. For introverts, it’s business as usual, but for the rest, it’s getting old. Staying indoors limits one’s ability to do a lot, especially if you see friends or family on the regular.

However, there are things to do while indoors to escape the dullness of inside. Since you have a lot of personal time, it’s a great opportunity to learn some

We don’t have to give you the scoop on Coronavirus. It’s had a global impact and by now, no matter who you are or where you live, you’ve heard or seen it in some capacity. 

Rather, you’re likely trying to make life “work” while the pandemic continues. That’s no easy task, depending on where you live, as many places have instituted emergency declarations, curfews, and even mandatory quarantines. The primary reason is because without a cure, the CDC is firmly recommending everyone to abide by “social distancing” and limiting exposure to others.

Entirely doable. However, there are situations in which a person

The Coronavirus pandemic has presented numerous challenges to the general public and businesses. You’ve no doubt seen the impact already: shops shutting down, people told to stay indoors, and in harsher cases, quarantine.

But COVID-19 impacted other things too, and in this case, we mean inventory. During March 2020, shoppers – concerned with the rising spike in US Coronavirus cases – stocked up on supplies. This resulted in various shortages ranging from foods like non-perishables and meat to, you guessed it, toilet paper. Businesses couldn’t put things back on shelves fast enough.

There are numerous reasons for this, of which we don’t

We’re in “interesting times” to say the least, and every aspect of life has been affected by the COVID-19 Coronavirus. Because of its outbreak, businesses and infrastructure have had to close off for the time being to reduce infection rates, forcing many to stay inside. Health experts and politicians alike are emphasizing ‘social distancing’ to prevent additional exposure to the virus and overall contain the infection rates.

Part of reducing potential contamination is cleanliness. If you don’t already, it’s a good idea to get into the habit of washing hands at regular intervals, avoid touching your face, and other good hygiene.

COVID-19, sadly, isn’t going away anytime soon, straining both personal lives and the medical world. As healthcare professionals work to assist those in need, they put themselves at risk just by exposure. Typically, this is a non-issue, as in medically hazardous environments, there’s protection equipment available, but unfortunately, due to various complications, PPE shortages are common. That’s the same for medical equipment as hospitals and healthcare facilities can be quickly overwhelmed by patients because of coronavirus. Remember, it’s additionally straining, because even as COVID0-19 affects people, there are still other emergencies and healthcare needs.

Portable storage can help during this crisis,

What’s the biggest challenge when it comes to a move? Time? Labor? Money? Most likely the latter. Because with money you can pick any location you want, hire movers, and have things taken care of your way. Unfortunately, most of us are always sweating some kind of budget. So, what if you’re trying to find affordable places to live in an area, which also has important commodities nearby (like grocery, medical and such)?

It sounds crazy, but try a college town. More specifically, an area that’s primarily aimed at student living. Now, this isn’t the case for every major area hosting
