Frequently Asked Questions

A Surplus pod requires approximately 173 square feet of level floor space, with dimensions of 15 feet 2.5 inches wide by 11 feet 4 inches deep, and a ceiling height of 7 feet 10.5 inches. The pod is fully self-supporting and does not require any floor anchoring, construction, or structural modifications. No drilling, bolting, or permanent installation is needed. Pods can be placed on any flat, level surface within a building, including lobbies, common areas, amenity spaces, or other underutilized areas. Installation is designed to be fast and minimally disruptive, with no impact to building operations.
