How PODS Works

Get It & Load It

We deliver your container -- and there's no need to meet the driver, as PODS is a contactless service. Load your container on your schedule, right in your driveway. If you want help, we can connect you with local packing and loading companies.

Keep it

At-home storage gives you the flexibility you need, whether you want easy storage just steps away, or you want to take your time packing and loading.

Store it

If you need temporary storage, we'll pick up your loaded container and bring it to a local PODS Storage Centre, where it will be safe, secure, and easily accessible until you need it again.

Move it

We've got this, so you don't have to. We'll deliver your container to your new home, whether you're moving across town or across the country‡. If you need to ship your car, we can connect you with one of our preferred car shipping providers who will arrange professional services in your area.

Moving to Sarasota

Sarasota homes have appreciated 62 percent over the last five years. The median home here is 40 years old and costs $236,900. Though housing is 41 percent more expensive than the national average, the overall cost of living in Sarasota is just 14 percent higher than the national average.

The premium paid for living in Sarasota is due in large part to the beautiful climate and sunny year-round weather. Winters in Sarasota have average highs in the 70s and lows that dip only to the 50s. In summer, highs climb to the low 90s while lows are in the mid-70s.

The lowest crime rates are generally in neighborhoods on the east side of Sarasota, though White Beach and Point O'Rocks are safe locations along the coast.

Alta Vista and Harbor Acres are popular neighborhoods for families because of their good schools. Neighborhoods such as Jordan's Crossing and Arlington Park are better for retirees or those without kids. These areas offer low crime rates and outstanding access to amenities, but the schools aren't ranked as highly.

Things to Do and See in Sarasota

If you're ready for some rest and relaxation after your move to Sarasota, consider taking a day off to hit the beach. Surf and sand are among the city's top highlights. Lido Key Beach is a convenient pick, less than five miles from the city center. If you prefer a different type of outdoor escape, visit Myakka River State Park. Here you'll find lakes, prairies, pinelands, wetlands, and a picturesque river. You can canoe, fish, kayak, hike, bike, and go birdwatching here.

Animal lovers will find a wealth of highlights to explore in and around Sarasota. The Big Cat Habitat and Gulf Coast Sanctuary is home to bears, lions, primates, birds, and more. You can even view the elusive hybrid liger. A favorite among children, the Sarasota Jungle Gardens features immersive exhibits such as the Butterfly Gardens, Bird Interaction Area, and Flamingo Feeding Area. Shows take place throughout the day for even more interactive fun.
