Lowering the height of pod for storage

So I am guessing then that the 8'7" number is the height without the AC.

Thanks everyone

What about removing the A/C and deflating the tires?  Take off the A/C, sell it, replace it with a crank-open vent (the opening is standard for both).  Buy a portable A/C, the type that blows the cold air through a flexible tube which you attach to a window opening.  If you want a cleaner look you could cut a hole in the floor to attach the hose to, cover it with a standard register cover.  Or cut the hole under the shower.  That enclosed area has a vent already so you are all set.  The 'pods are so well insulated I'm betting you won't need to move the air around inside but if you do you could use a small portable fan.

 

Next option requires a lot more work each time.  Find a set of low car dollies, the kind with small wheels.  Remove the 'pods wheels, lower onto the dollies, roll into place.

 

Any chance to modify the storage area?  If the entrance is the problem but you have enough height inside, maybe you can modify the top of the entrance?

 

Not the best idea, but you could cut 4-5 inches if you completely flatten both wheels before you push it into your storage area.  You might be OK rolling it a few feet on flat tires.  Again, not the best idea but if its your only choice...  If you have more height once inside you could partially fill the tires while it sits there.  Not sure you can shorten it from the top, there are a lot of things that stick up, up there.

 

Podders Helping Podders is an unofficial program we've started here so you can access a network of fellow 'podders before or while you are on the road.  Get directions from a local, help getting a tire repaired, etc.  Details are in that forum.  You'll notice some people have "podders helping podders" just under their screen name (to the left of every post), they have agreed to become part of this network.  Those members have the ability to post in that forum, for things related to that program.  If you are interested in joining PM me with your location and I'll add you.
