Relocating for military service often involves understanding and adhering to specific regulations. In Williamson County, military personnel may qualify for certain moving allowances and entitlements. It's crucial to be aware of:
Basic allowance for housing (BAH): Designed to cover housing costs, BAH rates in Williamson County can affect moving budgets.
Permanent change of station (PCS) Orders: Ensure you have all necessary documentation to facilitate a smooth transition.
Weight allowances: Know your entitlements regarding household goods to avoid excess charges during the move.
Additionally, understanding the reimbursement process for moving expenses under the Personally Procured Move (PPM) program can be invaluable. Many military members opt for PPM to gain more control and potentially save money during their move. As part of our service, we offer guidance on how our solutions can align with these allowances, ensuring you maximize your benefits effectively.

Shannon was fabulous!
Remodeling our house and we needed a storage shed for our furniture. I dealt with Shannon and she was fabulous. I had to move our delivery date out the first time and that was not a problem. As soon as I signed the agreement, she took care of the dates. She made sure that everything was good upon delivery and was very informative about pricing as far as monthly rental. If you need any storage needs, I would recommend this company. You won't regret it! 😄

Go Mini's of Columbia did an absolutely wonderful job! From the very beginning, the rental process was incredibly easy, and everyone I worked with was so friendly and professional. They did exactly what they said they would do, showed up when expected, and made the entire process stress-free.

Helped Me in a Tight Spot
Danielle and the gang really helped me in a tight spot! They were able to get me a unit quickly and in the exact (slightly crazy) space where we needed it. The storage unit was very clean and served our needs perfectly. Would definitely use again!
Bonnie Esslinger
Without hesitation, I can recommend
Go Mini's offers you from almost any place in the country an opportunity to have your excess items stored at your convenience, all from basically your phone. I had such an opportunity to use Go Mini's, setting up to have a pod delivered to my Tennessee residence from the state of Indiana. Everything went smoothly. My local Go Mini's office were on top of the game. Danielle handled everything for me as far as arranging the pod to be moved and relocated. Mario drives and handles the movement of your pod. I was impressed by his driving skills, and he was a good man. He waited a few minutes longer than he needed to make sure I was pleased. Without hesitation, I can recommend calling Danielle and her office to take care of you. I appreciated their dedication to doing the job right.
Thanks, Danielle and Mario.
V Dowell

Go Mini's of Columbia provided excellent service. Very prompt in replying and getting 2 containers to our job site, and picking them up promptly when we finished the job. Clear, reasonable pricing too! Zac & Danielle were both very good to work with. Highly recommend them if you are in need of onsite storage.
Angela Swift
I highly recommend Go Mini's
I was put in charge to arrange a storage unit for my daughter and son-in-law's local move. I've used the two larger companies (PODS and 1-800-PACK-RAT) with mixed results. The PODS experience was okay but very expensive, and the 1-800-PACK-RAT experience was expensive and a complete debacle. I decided to look beyond the big names and chose Go Mini's, and I'm glad I did. From my initial contact with Go Mini's representative Shannon Wood to the final pickup, the process was simple. Shannon was friendly, professional, and explained the rental process completely. She answered all my questions and showed genuine concern to help make the moving process less stressful. The unit was dropped off, loaded, and picked up for storage without any issues. When needed, the unit was delivered and the empty unit picked up with no problems. I highly recommend Go Mini's for your storage unit needs. The costs involved were reasonable, and the service was excellent.

Everyone we worked with (Shannon, Justin, and the delivery driver) were all so nice and professional! The service was timely, communication was great, we were kept informed, product was exactly what we needed, cost was what was quoted, what more can you ask for?? We have definitely become loyal customers!

Very pleased with the experience
We recently used Go Mini's for a move and are very pleased with the experience! The customer service was quick and proactive, and the pod was delivered on time. We thought about hiring a large box rental company, but our local mover highly recommended Go Mini's. We definitely recommend them!
