COWs Mobile-Storage Dealership Program

The COWs Dealership Program, launched in 2009 by Miami-based TrailPods LLC, is a low-cost entry into the mobile-storage industry designed as an add-on business to an existing self-storage or moving company. The program comes with branding (marketing materials, signage, uniforms and use of the COWs logo), reservation software, business training and support, but it is not a franchise. It costs considerably less than other mobile-storage concepts because it does not require additional real estate, special vehicles or a special driver’s license, nor are their franchise or residual fees.
 
The “Container on Wheels” is a three-in-one product including a powered hydraulic tilt-bed trailer, an enclosed utility trailer and an easily transported storage container that can be towed by any SUV or pickup truck. The container, available in 8- and 16-foot models, is built from a bright white composite material that is weatherproof, lightweight and strong. The trailer is built from structural steel, with a pressure-treated wood floor and powder-coated steel frame that are weather-resistant and durable. The powered hydraulics operate by remote to simplify loading and unloading.
 
COWs are popular for moving, short-term storage, overflow inventory, remodeling projects and other storage tasks. Aimed at do-it-yourselfers, the program allows customers to pack and unpack at their own convenience. Info: www.get-a-cow.net
