It costs more than trucking, I can say that. It's certainly not a cheaper alternative to trucks, and we're always evaluating whether the extra expense is worth it or not. As Phil mentioned, we mainly stick with PODS because it allows us to easily unload equipment at venues that don't have loading docks. Currently the majority of our venues fall into this situation.
If most of your venues have loading docks, then unless you can't find warehouse space, there is no reason to not use a truck. It's cheaper, and easier. Once you start dealing with lift gates and fork lifts, it's a different story.
