COMPANY

About BuildPod LLC

BuildPod LLC was founded by Emanuel Manea, a lifelong maker and entrepreneur with a passion for empowering DIY enthusiasts and homeowners. While contractors had access to mobile workshops, everyday makers were left out—forced to choose between expensive tool rentals and cramped garage spaces.

BuildPod is Michigan's first and only consumer-focused mobile workshop rental service. We deliver professional tool trailers and climate-controlled workshop pods directly to your driveway—complete with professional tools, educational support, and everything you need to tackle your project. No contractor license required.
