PODS® Partners with MILITARY STAR® Card

In a major development aimed at providing better services to military personnel and their families, PODS Enterprises, LLC has officially joined the MILITARY STAR® card network. This partnership is designed to facilitate flexible moving and storage solutions for U.S. service members, veterans, and their families during the various transitions of military life.

PODS has long been recognized as a leader in the moving and storage industry, pioneering portable container services that cater specifically to the unique needs of military clients. By becoming a merchant for the MILITARY STAR card, PODS ensures that military families can access their services using a financial tool tailored to their lifestyle and deployment cycles. The MILITARY STAR card is available exclusively to eligible military personnel and their dependents, offering competitive rates and flexible benefits.

Benefits of the MILITARY STAR Card

The MILITARY STAR card comes with a host of advantages. It features low interest rates, no annual fees, and no extra charges for late payments. The cardholders also benefit from a deployment interest reduction policy and earn rewards through the MILITARY STAR Rewards Program. With this partnership, PODS aims to make the process of moving less stressful for service members, allowing them to focus on their duties while having reliable access to storage and moving solutions.

A Commitment to the Military Community

Irfan Bojadzija, Vice President of Residential and Commercial Partnerships at PODS, emphasized that supporting service members has been integral to the company’s mission. “By joining the MILITARY STAR card program, we reinforce our commitment to providing value and flexibility to military families, particularly during their relocations and transitions,” he stated. This sentiment is particularly poignant given the military's management of approximately 400,000 moves each year, a figure that peaks between May and September.

In 2024, PODS provided over 36,000 containers specifically for military moves. The company has strategically equipped its locations with certified weight scales to streamline accurate documentation necessary for military reimbursement, a critical aspect of the moving process for service members.

Continuous Support for Military Families

PODS' commitment to the military community is not just limited to services; about six percent of its workforce comprises veterans and active-duty soldiers. The company actively participates in multiple military-focused events and initiatives, such as the annual Toys for Tots campaign and the Tampa Bay Chamber’s military appreciation events. This highlights PODS' ongoing dedication to recognizing and supporting those who serve in the armed forces.

The integration of PODS with the MILITARY STAR network represents a significant move towards enhancing the lives of military families, providing them with solutions that adapt seamlessly to their unique challenges.
