I used the largest pod since we moved from a three-bedroom house. But we didn't take any living room or dining room furniture. We took one bedroom and two little cabinets, then we had boxes. They delivered a pod then we packed it and they transported it. PODS was very helpful and secure. They wouldn't even take my credit card. I had to be transferred over to an automated thing, then I had to use passwords every time I called them.
Thank you, Nora, for sharing your positive feedback!

When I needed to move, PODS was the first place I went to. I used one of the large moving pods from New York to South Carolina. When the pod arrived, I was fine with it. But when I completed the move and was unloading it, I realized that some of the cross braces inside came unsecured. The nails that held it in place came out so they all shifted. Only a few of my things got a little bit damaged but I was surprised that the supports gave way. But I'd still recommend PODS to friends. I would provide the phone number for the person I worked with. Her name is Ivy and she's down in the Florida office. She was great.
Appreciate your five-star review, Brian! Thank you!

We needed to move and we weren't sure where or when we were gonna move. My wife and I are middle-aged and the thought of trying to pack all of our stuff into a moving truck in a single day was something we couldn't physically or mentally handle. I had seen a commercial for PODS, where they would drop off a container at your house and you could pack it at your leisure. Since it was a local move across town, I figured it would be the way to go. I got on their website and we saw the prices were affordable and we could take our time packing it right. That's the route we went and it worked beautifully.
We weren't home when they dropped off the pod at the place we were moving from but I talked to the rep and he put it right where we wanted it. Then, as far as when they dropped it off at our house, they set up right when they said they would and he dropped it right where we wanted it, without a problem. It was kind of a tight fit but he got it in there. And he came back and got it without a problem. I'd tell others my experience went great and the cost was right about where it should be. I would highly recommend it.
Thanks for sharing your experience with us, Jason! This is a great review!

I liked PODS' price. Also, the website was very user-friendly. The container was clean, the right size, and easily accessible. When PODS picked it up and delivered it to our new location a week later, everything was in the same place it was when it left our driveway of our old home. They delivered it to our old home the date and time that they said they would be there. They picked it up from our old home the date and time that we had arranged. And they delivered it to our new location the date and time that I had arranged online after we moved in. It was amazing how they maneuvered their vehicle with the container on the back of it. It's 16 foot. And we live in neighborhoods. Everything was done perfectly. I have recommended them to several other people that I have talked to, that if they need just for a remodel or storage purpose or they're moving, I highly recommend PODS.

We had a great experience with PODS. The delivery and pickup were perfect. I did it online and when it got complicated because we had to store some things on the east coast while we were still on the west coast, I got on the phone with them. They were super helpful on the phone and made it very simple. They knew exactly what we needed and how to make it happen. Everything was excellent but I was little shocked at how much it was gonna cost to get us over here. The service is ridiculously expensive. They were saying there was a 20% discount but it cost over $20,000 to get our stuff from the west coast to the east coast then it costs $300 per pod per month for storage, and we had three pods. But they were willing to do everything staggered, which was super helpful. At the beginning, we only needed one then we needed two. We didn't have to pay for all of them until we started using them.
Thank you for your feedback, Alexis. We continuously strive to offer competitive pricing and appreciate your input.

I've used PODS for a couple of different moves. I wanted an alternative to traditional moving companies because I had horrible experience with that type of a move and I heard about the concept of PODS and then called and booked it. The first time I used them was when I moved from New York down to Florida. It was a 2021 pick-up and 2022 delivery. Then, I just used them moving back to New York from Florida.
Everybody -- down to the guys who dropped the pod off and picked the pod up, has always been super friendly and helpful. Also, their online process is very easy. I had to talk to a human when I needed to change the drop-off address but they've always been super easy to deal with and get ahold of. And I like that I can go online and take a look at my dashboard. That's really very easy to use. I've mentioned PODS to several friends and acquaintances that are getting ready to do moves. To me, it's like the only game in town. It's a very solid company and very pleasing.

The person who scheduled the pickup and drop-off was easy to communicate with and easy to reach back when I had questions. The drivers each contacted us before pickup and before drop-off. They came right at the time when they said they were going to. They worked around whatever you would say and situations on the driveway. They were very easy to work with.
The cost was in line with any other freight company. We moved my mom from Florida to North Carolina and when we moved up here from Florida a few years ago, we used ABF. The cost and convenience were comparable in every way. We just had a bigger load to move at that point and ABF was a whole semi-truck. That worked better at that point but the pod was perfect for what we were doing this time. I love PODS. They did everything they said they were gonna do, exactly when they said they were gonna do it. It was an excellent experience.

I used them for a move out of state and they did storage. I booked the PODS online and then they helped me over the phone with some issues. We went over the issues and got them solved. It was pretty easy. We got the largest container size and we got everything in there that we needed. It was clean and it was easy to get in and out of.

We needed temporary storage as we did a renovation and the first company that came to mind was PODS! We did explore competitors but the experience with PODS over the phone and online was well received. Over the phone the PODS staff member used Google Maps to ensure that our selected POD would fit and where on the driveway it would fit. Delivery day and pick-up were easy.

I've seen other companies, like MYBOX, but when I was looking to get a rental, PODS was the first one that popped into my head. Their price didn't seem egregious. It was a great value, and I didn't even have to shop around. It was super easy to go online and book as well. The platform was very user-friendly, and I had no issues at all. It was very clear and concise and I got a follow-up phone call or email to confirm the time and date of the drop-off. It might have taken me all of 5 to 10 minutes from start to finish.
We had an issue with the door falling off the track. That happened when my father-in-law was around. I didn't see if it was a user error or if the unit was just worn out, but I submitted a ticket, then PODS came out within a day. They got it right on the track within 15 minutes and it was fixed. It was fantastic. I could close the door, and I didn't have to worry about the weather anymore. I very much appreciated it. I can promise that if I ever need something again, PODS will be my first choice.

I used PODS for my international move (Canada to the US). It was a great value for the money, and the customer support for my questions was fantastic. The only minor issue is that the online portal did not have any useful info for international moves, so I had to rely on calling frequently to confirm details. Example: I changed moving dates and would still get confirmation emails that a truck was coming; this is an issue with their system on international moves.

The whole experience was mostly good. The pricing and charges was another thing. My 30 day ended on Sunday and they try to charge me an extra month because they would need to pick it up on Monday. The charges are not clear, at the end I figured out that there was a charge for dropping off the POD, a charge for the time left at our place and then a charge to pick it up. As if you had the option not to have them pick it up.

My PODs experience was stressful and the service was very disappointing. They give you a 3 hour delivery “window” to plan around. They only estimate when they will deliver, giving themselves 3 hours of wiggle room. I needed 2 large pods delivered to my storage unit on July 1, 2024. I live out of state and booked a 2-night stay at a local hotel to take care of this matter. The manager at the storage facility reluctantly agreed to let me have the pods delivered to my storage unit on my promise that both pods would be removed that same day, as they would be blocking access to two other storage units. I paid PODs an extra $430.84 for this service. The two delivery “windows” were that morning. The first one was delivered around 8:30am and the second one was delivered around 10:30am.
Not knowing the exact time that these pods would be delivered, I arranged for a moving company to move my belongings from the storage unit to the pods that same afternoon. The moving company also gave me a “window” of noon-4pm, and arrived at about 2pm. Before the movers even showed up, representatives from PODs called wanting to pick up the pods. I asked them to delay the pick up because the pods had not been loaded yet. All I needed was a couple of extra hours to get the pods loaded, but PODs was not flexible enough with their 3-hour “windows” to give me that extra time to get them loaded.
After numerous phone calls, my pods were rescheduled for pick up at a later date. Initially, they wanted to reschedule the pick up for 2 days later, but I told them that was unacceptable because I needed them picked up the same day because I only had one more night reserved at the hotel, I paid extra money for the same day pick up, and also because of my promise to the manager of the storage facility.
The manager at PODs finally agreed to pick up the pods the following day. The manager at the storage facility threatened to have the fully loaded pods towed if they weren’t removed by the end of the second day. The pods were loaded and ready to be picked up by 3:15pm that same afternoon. If their schedule had really been flexible, then Pods could have been picked up that same day. One was removed around 10:30am and the second one was finally removed around 3:30pm the next day, July 2, 2024. I am unhappy that I paid an extra $430.84 for the same day pick up and did not get that service. Instead, they were picked up a day later.

Horrible experience! Delivery was fine but when it was time to terminate my service, it was a mess. I wish I would have thoroughly done my research because terminating services has been the same for most of PODS customers. If you have money to give away, rent from PODS because they will purposely delay pickup just to charge you an additional month because as their policy states... they do NOT prorate and for whatever reason they can cancel or delay (yes, at their discretion) pick up and they can charge you that monthly fee plus pick-up charges.
So you have paid for something that you no longer have access to. I would understand if the cancelation or delay was my fault, but it was the company that canceled and reschedule multiple times just so my payment cycle could start over. A lesson learned. I can NOT and will NOT recommend this company to anyone. Invest your hard-earned money on another company or in yourself. We live and learn and PODS is definitely on my "DO NOT WASTE MONEY/TIME" list.

PODS does the climate-controlled storage. Most of the reps were nice. But I faced some issues with getting different information from the various reps throughout my experience. It was around scheduling and getting my pod delivered to my final address. where we went back and forth. I ended up sorting it out. But I would get one version from somebody and told something else from someone else and I would call back. I got different versions of how to move my pod to the right place. That was the most hectic and chaotic part that PODS could improve upon. But the drivers for drop-off and pick-up were both great. They stuck to their windows.

PODS was great. I would do it again. I tried doing it online but I found it easier to call them. And I spoke to someone over the phone and it was much better that way. The rep was able to offer me better deals. And he gave me better pricing than I would have got if I was online. They were cheaper. And as far as the storage goes, it was convenient to have at a location right here where I am. Online, they have the little gimmick thing that I could tell them what they would take and it fits it in. But I went over it with him and he also agreed that I just needed the smallest one.
The only thing that I knock them on is that there are three size pods. There's the 8 foot, the 12 foot and the 16 foot. But if you're moving out of state, they only let you take the 8 or the 16. They don't offer you the 12, which I would have taken the 12. But the 12 is only if you're moving in state. If you're moving out of state, they don't let you use the 12. Why? I don't know. As it turned out, I was able to use just the smallest one. I didn't think everything would fit in there. But that's the other thing. We used a service that they offer for services to pack the pod on their website. I looked at the reviews for all of them. And the one I chose, they did a great job. They fit everything in perfectly, nothing broke. I used them again to unload when I got here, and they were good.
Both of the guys that picked up and dropped off were great. They were very friendly, and had great customer service. I got a text from PODS. "Are you happy, everything good?" And that was fine. I could have responded if there was anything negative. The people that I used to unload also called me to make sure everything was good on both occasions.

I ordered PODS right before a kitchen remodel. We had a water leak in our house and we were without a kitchen for two years. I was in a dispute with the insurance company who refused to give us enough money to do the repairs to the kitchen and the master bathroom. After waiting a year and a half, I decided to bite the bullet and get a pod here and keep things in the driveway so we could access things from the kitchen. PODS cost quite a bit but my things were safely stored. With all the rains that we had this last winter, nothing got wet. I had a large pod put in the driveway and the guys were so expert, both coming into the driveway and leaving. It was impressive. They came when they said they would and the fee to pick stuff up was reasonable. I would use them again. I had a very favorable experience and they were professional and did what they said.

I started the booking online and finished it on the phone. I requested for the smallest pod that they had and used it for transporting items from one end of the country to the other. We rented it for a few weeks to do that. Their drivers are some of the friendliest people. They were very happy to do their job and they were very helpful. They called before they got here and let us know they were on their way.

I was contacting different moving companies and the prices were outrageous. My Mom had a friend that moved and used PODS so my Mom suggested me calling PODS. I did, and the customer service rep was so professional, answered all my questions. They delivered everything they promised at an affordable price. I moved from Florida to Rhode Island. None of my items were damaged. They picked up when they say they would and they delivered when they say they would. Reliable, trustworthy company.

I got the largest container that they have and the quality was good. I used their services to store some furniture. Everything was good. But PODS charges you for the lot. They should provide a lot for that with the amount that they got. Regardless of the size of the container, they should give the lot for free. Also, they need to get bigger containers.

I called the PODS number and told them what I needed, and the gal that answered the phone was very helpful and got it all set up for me. She was willing to help no matter what. My move wasn't gonna just be a pickup here and drop-off there. I had to store it, and I had certain days, and she worked with me fabulously. I had received a couple of estimates from all-service moving companies who would come in and pack everything up for me and move it, so I was shocked at that amount of price that they were giving me. It was like $3,500 and it was awful. So, I was very happy with the pricing that I got from PODS. That's why my kids said, “No, mom. Just go with PODS. We can help you move.”

This was a total debacle from the first day. I ordered a pod and had it delivered; tried to set up a day for them to pick it up but they didn’t have days available to come move it to the new house. We called them multiple times to try and find a resolution. They simply did not have enough drivers to do the job they set out to do. Our things arrived at our new house 2 1/2 weeks after we closed, meaning our stuff sat on someone else’s property for a long period of time. Because of the delay in picking up the pod, we were forced to pay a second month's rent for the pod. This is an absolutely terrible business experience and I would not recommend this company to anyone.

Pods was the perfect solution for our overseas move. We needed to start packing our home without renting an offsite storage service. Pods dropped right on our driveway and we were able to start packing and labeling our home items.

I ordered a pod because of my situation and I regret everything about it! They didn’t honor their contract price, they disregarded my coupon that I had presented and after charging me $901 for 48 total days of storage with 2 pick ups and 2 deliveries. I tried to use the 25% off but the CSR stated he had a better deal —- after all was said and done. With their “regular price” the total would have come out to $814.00 for the two months — with the coupon price it would have been $610 and change…. I am not asking for all my money I’m asking to honor the deal — they refused and closed my case… Do NoT trust or use this company unless you have a lot of money and just don’t care where it goes… would have been cheaper to hire 2 movers and a storage unit!

We moved a shipload of household furniture from Arizona to Boston and I needed to store the furniture for four months. A friend of mine told me that if I was gonna move things cross-country, PODS is the most economical way to do it and everything went wonderfully. I talked with somebody when I first set up an account and the rep asked me all the right questions. We got the right thing lined up and she told me exactly what to expect and what to do. Also, it was easy to change pickup and delivery dates online. They were very careful about letting me know timetables and dates and they provided options for moving crews that I could hire. I'd recommend them to anybody. They were really incredibly efficient and the price was so wonderful compared to a moving company moving cross-country. And storing for five months, you can't beat the price.

We liked PODS’ reputation and booking a pod with them online was very straightforward. We used a single pod to do a household contents move and it was very weather-resistant. But the roof was very rough. It had a stucco-type finish, which was probably required because of the way the pods were made. But as a user, it would have been nice if that was smooth.
A definite positive was that when the pod was delivered, the driver made sure that we could get the door open, which at first was not possible. We had to tilt the pod to do a minor adjustment on one piece of furniture that had moved close to the door and was blocking it. He facilitated getting the pod open. Otherwise, a callback would have been required. But all was good. The driver was very positive and professional. The only question I had was whether I had to prompt them for final delivery or if it would be transferred from city to city on my own. I called in and a person clarified what the website meant when it gave me a message I didn't understand.

US Service Members Beware: I am a US military service member and got 2 year overseas orders. We had Pods pick up our stuff in SC and it was stored there as well. We paid $490 a month. Upon return to the states they are charging us an additional $1500 to move the pod from SC to NC. Nowhere in the contract communicates that it will cost that much to move it, only that some long distance delivery fees will apply. I could imagine if we were moving to CA or TX. When talking to customer service they blamed me for not know where I was going after my overseas orders had been completed and said there was nothing they could do. I hate it when companies take advantage of service members and this is what it seems to me.

PODS’ pricing was better than renting a Ryder truck once it was all finished and I didn't have to worry about driving. Plus, it was more convenient. I started booking online and I then talked to the reps from PODS on the phone. Everybody I talked to was great. You call through each phase, to deliver the pod, to get the pod picked up, to have the pod shipped and to have the pod delivered to your new home. And each one, you call and set up an appointment and have it all done. Everything went smoothly. We got one large pod and we thought it was gonna be small, but everything fit. It was perfect.
I downloaded the app and it was informative. It gives you where it was located at any given moment. The drivers were great and they were doing things with those pods that I didn't figure they could even do. When the driver delivered it, he put it right where I wanted it and didn't damage any of the lawn. It was quite good. It was a challenging location where we had it delivered because the house sits on a hill that drops off and he put it in a good place. I probably should have done better with the padding. I had some furniture that was rubbed but none of the glass was broken.

Started out great, pod was delivered as stated on date stated. Then when it was time to pick up pod unit and start its journey to another state the pickup time was delayed twice that day then finally cancelled. So we were leaving the next day to fly to MA and the pod didn't get picked up for 2 days later than originally scheduled. So that meant the delivery to new location was going to be 2 days later than planned. The problem was needed possessions were in the pod so was inconvenienced without much needed stuff 2 day longer than was originally told it would arrive. The delivery man and pick up man were extra nice and very professional. I think the communication between drivers and customers needs to be improved. It left a lot to be desired.

We absolutely loved our experience using PODS. The only issue was the labor they recommend. We used the "Most Experienced" labor force they listed. The labor was terrible. Couldn't fit 1 small 1 bedroom 760sq ft house in the largest PODS container. They didn't use the supplied ratchet straps. And it took them 11 hours to pack the above house and a 20x24' garage, which they didn't get everything loaded into its own large POD. Then they left before the job was done, leaving us with an extra 2200 mile trip to return to gather the rest of our stuff. Not to mention storing it for a month and the hassles that come with that. Also broken items that had heavy stuff packed on top of them even with a walk through and marked boxes. Really wish PODS had their own labor force and/or vetted their outsourced labor better.

The Pod itself is what it is-a cube with a rolling door. No issues with that. However, we ordered the POD for store some office furniture while we renovate. We were asked our business hours, which we told them Mon-Fri 6:00am-5:00 BUT because we park our trucks in the yard when our employees return, we need to have the POD delivered before 3:00pm, that noon would be best. We then receive an email confirming delivery between 1:30-4:30. So that’s when it becomes frustrating. Trying to call them and get through their “vetting” process. First it’s all automated, so you have to listen to all the options before you are placed on hold for what seems like hours but really is about 15-20 minutes. Only to be told to “hold on” and another 10-15 minutes goes by and then an agent says, "Ok, we’re canceling the 1:30-4:30 appointment and scheduling you in for 12:30pm."
So the following day, out trucks are gone, we have the entire yard empty (no personal vehicles parked) and wait, and wait, and wait. At around 1:00pm I start calling and once again have to go through their “vetting” process over the phone, only to get frustrated with their automated system-which doesn’t have any “easy” option to get a representative on the line. Another half hour process for someone to tell me, "We’re trying to reach the warehouse, we’ll call you back."
An hour goes by-now it’s 2:00pm, and no one has called back. Once again we have to call and go through their ridiculous automated system. Finally we get someone on the line who says “hold on, I’ll check where the driver is”. We find out he’s in Brooklyn (NY) on his way back to the warehouse in Jamaica (NY). Where he then has to get the POD loaded onto the truck. They tell me “figure 4:00 by you”. So at 4:00 our trucks start coming back and we have to keep them in the street, double-parked, blocking traffic. I can’t tell you how many phone calls were made between 4:00 and 6:00pm before the driver called to say he was on the way. He arrived at 7:30pm! Not the driver's fault who was very professional, but at 8:00pm we’re parking our trucks. At this point we’ve been on site for 14 hours. It’s definitely time to go home.
I can only tell you that when it was time for them to pick up the POD-although it did not take as many phone calls, once again it was a frustrating experience trying to get them to pick up. First they needed the order number before they would talk to me. So trying to find an email that was 11 months old was not easy. You would think they’d find my order using a phone number, or name or address-but No-only with an order number. Then they say we owe them an additional $700+ when I know we’ve been on “auto pay”. Turns out they upgraded their system and hadn’t gotten the last 2 payments. But of course this wasn’t said at first-they kept telling us we owed them for 2 months. I hung up on them all frustrated and called back the following day.
Finally this rep explained that their system had been updated and we were not billed. Then trying to get them “locked” into a time 8:00am-3:00pm when we would have the yard empty so they can pick up. Eventually we had it picked up. Once again the driver was very professional but dealing with them over the phone-forget it. Would I use them again? I’d have to be very desperate.

If you're looking for a stress-free moving experience, look no further than PODS. From start to finish, their communication was top-notch, keeping me informed every step of the way. Their team of professionals handled everything with utmost care and expertise. What truly sets PODS apart is their punctuality. The PODS container arrived precisely when promised, and the pickup and delivery were carried out with military-like precision. Not a single item was mishandled or damaged, thanks to the meticulous attention to detail from their well-trained staff. PODS takes the hassle out of moving, allowing you to pack and load at your own pace. Their transparent pricing and no hidden fees make budgeting a breeze. I cannot recommend PODS highly enough for their exceptional service and commitment to customer satisfaction. Moving has never been easier or more streamlined!

Pods performed well with the shipping of the container and arriving on time. What they didn’t do was honor a 20% coupon that I had and not only did they not accept the coupon they charged me more to ship to Florida then for me to ship from Florida to New York. It was 40% more to ship from New York to Florida then to go the other way, which is price gouging because they can. I would never use pods again in the future based on their price structure.

The only thing that was annoying was the $137 pickup fee wasn't in the original. That is because, if I have the pod for longer, I would be charged more. Because PODS would give me a price, and I would have to add on $137 to get the total price if I wanted it for a month. I had to pay attention to all of the prices so I knew the total price versus what seemed to be the total price, but it wasn't the total price because I compared PODS versus U-Haul. Other than that, the reps were all very nice. And it was easy to change the date of when I wanted to pick up or drop off. It could be dropped off or picked up without me home, which is lovely. That billing was easy. I would recommend the experience.

Depending on what season it is, there's no climate control on those things. But in a world of bad customer service, PODS was excellent.

Dear PODS, Subject: Formal Complaint Regarding Unresolved Refund and Collection Issue. I am writing to express my deep dissatisfaction and frustration with the service I have received from PODS. This letter outlines the series of events that have led to my complaint and the subsequent emotional and financial distress caused by your company. On April 20, 2024, I returned the PODS unit to your facility. Despite the return, I was charged for services that were never provided. When I contacted your customer service to request a refund, my request was ignored until my spouse and I took to social media to voice our concerns. Only then did I receive a response promising two refund cheques. However, these cheques did not cover the total amount charged.
Despite my dissatisfaction, I agreed to accept the partial refund to resolve the matter. Three weeks passed without receiving the refund payments. Consequently, I escalated the issue to PayPal and disputed the claim. PayPal ruled in my favor, acknowledging that no product or service was provided and that funds were unjustly taken from my account. To my utter disbelief, six weeks later, I received an email from PODS stating that my account was being sent to collections for the disputed amount. PODS claims this is because a refund was issued in addition to the PayPal dispute resolution. However, I have informed your representatives more than twenty times that I never received the refund cheques. This assertion leads me to believe that the cheques were never actually sent.
Furthermore, the entire experience with PODS has been riddled with issues, from rodents in the PODS unit to the unjust charges, harassment, and manipulation. The lack of professionalism and integrity demonstrated by PODS has caused significant emotional distress. I am requesting immediate action to resolve this issue.
Specifically:1. Confirmation in writing that my account is not being sent to collections and that this matter is resolved.
2.A formal apology for the inconvenience and distress caused by your company's actions.
Should this issue not be resolved promptly, I will have no choice but to seek legal advice and consider further actions, including but not limited to reporting this matter to consumer protection agencies and pursuing additional social media awareness campaigns. Sincerely, Krystal
**UPDATE: JUNE 14, 2024**
I have just received another phone call from pods. Telling me that I still owe you money? I am really upset that you guys are continuing to harass me and cause me intense anxiety. I am still waiting for a response from this complaint, and the various other emails and phone calls that I made 2 weeks ago regarding this. None of which have been responded to at this point.
This needs to be resolved and rectified immediately! Your company is continuing to harass me, causing emotional turmoil, undue stress and anxiety. I have done nothing wrong to your company. You stole money from me, and claimed to have sent me refund checks which I never received both of. So, I contacted my bank, reported your fraud and provided them all emails, receipts and ALL THE DETAILS from this situation. The BANK sided with me, agreed you were in the wrong and stole my funds without authorization. They issued me a full refund, which now you claim I owe you. The BANK sided with ME for a reason.
I demand PODS to initiate immediate action to resolve this issue. Specifically:1. Confirmation in writing that my account is not being sent to collections and that this matter is resolved. That I WILL NOT be contacted by PODS and harassed anymore.
2.A formal apology for the inconvenience and distress caused by your company's actions.

I recently had a frustrating experience with PODS. The first pod we received smelled like mothballs, so we rejected it, which delayed our packing by four days while waiting for a new one. Although I was told it would take 10 days for our pod to arrive, both pods sat in the warehouse for four days before leaving. They would have been behind schedule, but I noticed the delay and called to expedite them.
There were significant delivery issues. I was not informed until after the first pod was delivered that they only deliver and pick up from my area on Tuesdays to Thursdays. Consequently, the pod sat by the road for seven days, resulting in a fine. For the second pod, scheduled for a Wednesday delivery and Thursday pick-up to avoid further fines, we took time off work. However, they called Wednesday morning to reschedule for Thursday, and the pick-up couldn't happen until the following Tuesday. This caused us to lose two days of income and incur another fine.
When I filed a claim, PODS denied it, stating that expediting the delivery to meet their original timeline meant I couldn't claim for the delays, income loss, and fines. The customer service was disappointing, with representatives reading from scripts and refusing to transfer to a manager. Communication barriers made the process even more difficult. If I hadn't been vigilant about tracking my pods, I could have incurred further fees due to their poor communication and hidden fees. Overall, my experience with PODS was highly unsatisfactory.

Still, nobody showed up! The driver never called me, so I do not believe that they sent my container. During my last call at 9 pm, they finally confessed that my container was not coming and it would come on Wednesday earliest as they do not work on Sundays and they did not work on Monday as it was Memorial Day!!!
Well, I was flying abroad on Monday and did not get my container to move my stuff. It was a terrible experience, I started crying on the phone and all they could tell me was to call another company rather than resolving my problem. This is unacceptable. It is highly unprofessional. People rely on the reservations they make with this company and they simply do not show up without even an excuse. No compensation for the stress and inconveniences that they caused either.

I am using PODS for the first time. The booking of a 16 foot unit seemed easy enough. I booked this request over a week in advance. A confirmation of my order was sent to my email a few days prior to scheduled drop off. The PODS website is suppose to provide updates of the ETA for the drop. I never saw any updates reflect time of any estimated drop off. I made a call to the PODS company and spoke with a live agent. I was then told that a driver is en route. Waited for a few hours and called again for the website had no ETA updates. The live agent stated that the driver should be arriving by 3:45PM. That time came and gone. I made a third call and again spoke to a live agent and discovered that a route to drop off the unit did not appear to be active in the system. As a result, the agent rescheduled me for a Monday drop off in the event the POD never showed up previously scheduled. This is not okay!
My movers arrive on Monday morning but no Storage unit to put all of my home furnishings and household items. I am not happy about this at all! The only saving grace will be that the POD arrives before my movers do on Monday Morning, June 10th. I suggest that you get confirmation of order triple times at least a few days prior to drop off day. So now I am praying that the notes from the agent working with me made it clear that I was a dissatisfied customer will be reviewed early enough for a unit to be expedited to the requested drop off location first thing on Monday morning BEFORE movers arrive at 9AM.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and feedback, Jeff! There are so many moving parts when it comes to a cross-country move. We're glad we were able to help along the way!

I have used PODS for two moves. Overall, it is a good option for loading, storing and delivering your household goods. The only downsides are having to work around their schedule since they don’t transfer pods every day and secondly, it is easy to get the door stuck during transfer and not easy to find the problem and get access to it.
We appreciate you taking the time to spread the word about your satisfaction with the level of service PODS provided, Barbara. Thank you!

We had two pods and there were two drivers on each end so there was a total of four drivers. Three of them were good but one of them was a mess. The base got detached on one of the pods so they had to take that out of service. When they move the pod, Podzilla is the machine that picks it up and puts it on the truck. The driver raised the pod with the Podzilla and kept trying to back underneath it, but the bottom of the pod was on the ground, so he couldn't get the truck to go over the bump. It had some height to it. He kept accelerating hard and digging a hole in the ground with the pliers. I told him to stop and just move the pod out. He did that four times and was doing ramming speed, trying to bump over the part versus moving the pod. It was already hooked up to the Podzilla and it dug a big hole. And the guy that dropped it didn't have a problem. I would never use PODS again. The price was actually higher than quoted by $400.

I was moving across country and PODS was recommended by a friend so I thought it would be a good idea to use them. I started my booking online and it was easy. I booked the smallest container and it was perfect. The condition was good and the delivery was great. They gave me a timeframe and the guy was there within that timeframe. He took it off the thing and set it up. Everything was perfect with PODS and I would recommend them. It's so convenient and it's worth it.

We moved from Florida to Columbus, Ohio. Everything went very well. Pod was delivered to our Florida House on time. Pods notified us when is was coming. We called them to pick it up also on time. Very good driver both ways! They stored the Pod close to the place we were building so when we needed it was delivered. Nice thing was it was stored inside as we need to store it for forty five days. When we opened the Pod everything was in place and as we had packed it.

It was easy to order the pod and plan for drop off/pick up. Selinda was the driver for drop off and for our transfer, she was excellent! There were a few issues with selecting a date and I had to call in for assistance but customer service made the process easy.

I used PODS this spring. It was very easy to order and get dropped off. Scheduling pick up was very easy to do as well all through the website. The only issue I had. I needed the unit a couple more days longer than the month I had originally booked. They have no way to prorate the unit 1 day or 30.. Same price? Seems that since you pay for delivery and pickup you should be able to pay for partial months?.
Thank you for your review, Sandra! You can keep your container for as long as you need, but we only offer a monthly rental payment option. We don’t prorate or charge by the day.

Our belongings were transported from Georgia to New York using PODS for storage over a 12-month period before final delivery to our new location. This was our second time utilizing PODS, and we found the service to be efficient, cost-effective, and satisfactory. The customer service provided was excellent, and the delivery drivers were professional. We would definitely consider using PODS again for any future moves.

I believe PODS was really useful to have to help us with our move keeping our stuff in storage while we needed it. It kept stuff by our house and we can load it anytime. We need it and then get it transferred onto the next place. It’s a good service to have. I also thought customer service was very helpful.

When called to drop box at 7530 hart drive. And was told would need 124. And a lil over so. Left 125$ with brothers law when they dropped. Then took a 124 dollars and a lil bit for final payment. And brothers law heard someone say a heck of a tip. When he gave them the money I was told that was to be last payment.

It is always refreshing to have a company done exactly as needed in the situation. I had to move my dad's house to my new home. It was a cross state move. I called PODS and they were able.to set everything up. My family loaded the pod and I unloaded it at the new location. We even had to store it for a short time before we were ready and the facilitated that as well. It was a wonderful experience.

PODS is a good company and very reliable. Booking with them online was easy and they delivered the pod easily as well. I didn't have to be home. Everybody communicated well. They talked us through how to pack all our stuff and how to close the door. The only thing was when I requested it to be picked up, they didn't have any dates available before my ending date so I had to pay double. They said that because it fell after the month, I had to repay it.

The only thing we took a little bit of an issue with was we thought we were getting an 8 x 8 container, but it was 7 x 7 feet. The delivery man said that that was just how they are now. He said they don't actually have 8 x 8, and that they're 7 x 7. But the delivery guys were really great. They were really good at driving and parking the pod and putting it on my property. All in all, PODS is convenient and affordable, and it's easy to book one. We've already recommended them to neighbors that we see when we're out walking.

I had a wonderful experience with PODS. It was very professional. They kept us up to date on every move from moving from one site to another and when it arrived at its next stop.

Pods is great if you know exactly what you need. If you have a pod for 3 days and change your mind, you are stuck paying the whole month. They are not flexible whatsoever, you pay the whole month no matter what. Moving is stressful enough, I wish they were more understanding. I had no problem paying for the time I had it, just wished partial refunds were an option. Customer service is lacking.
