    I've used PODs multiple times and they've been consistent with great customer service and have been very reliable. Even with our out of state move, they've made the whole process super convenient. I love that they usually have promos going on also! We really appreciate that Preston went above and beyond to get our pod into our driveway because it was a tight squeeze. I highly recommend this company!

    All legs of the service seemed to go smoothly. The original delivery. The relocation to our new house. And also the final pick up. I was there during the original delivery and was able to meet the driver. I think his name was Gary. He was very pleasant. I was pleased with the experience. I didn’t have any in person contact after that original delivery, however all seemed to go well. It was nice not to have to take off work to be there. Placement of the PODS was good. There wasn’t any damage that we could see to our driveway or yard. I would recommend using PODS to others.

    Our container was delivered to the incorrect address without any prior communication from the driver which is in their contract. This error resulted in a neighbor’s driveway being blocked, leading to the involvement of the HOA. When we contacted customer service, we experienced significant difficulty reaching a resolution as they could not reach a driver to move the pod and were disconnected multiple times. I did speak to several customer service reps and with the delivery facility, who apologized for these issues and confirmed that a full refund would be issued for the inconvenience. Pods Corporate has offered a free month POD rent, a mere $250 value for one of the worst experiences ever. I would never recommend this company.

    Customer # **. Overall the experience was good. I did have one issue with a charge for “leveling the POD on an uneven surface". My driveway is paved and I got charged for an unpaved surface. I called to request the $25 refund. I was told that the driver was to take pictures upon delivery but didn’t. I took pictures and sent them via email as requested and never heard back. My email was sent to lmasombrado@pods.com on 3/9/2026. It’s not a huge amount but should be addressed nonetheless. My photos are attached. Thank you.

    I used PODS because I needed a place to store things until my garage floor was finished and OK to walk and drive on. It worked out great. The Pod was delivered on-time and the person that delivered it was a real gentleman. He worked diligently to get it set in place where I wanted it. He obviously knew what he was doing. It was the same when he came to pick it up. The service overall was great.

    We were pleased with the mechanics of moving belongings to a new location, just not the folks involved. The schedulers were terrible. They canceled first day delivery of empty pod because it snowed. They delayed twice more at the last minute, then advised us we needed a permit for the delivery vehicle, again the night prior to supposed delivery.

    The first POD was delivered to our new home only 30 minutes late due to it being delivered to the Kent facility. Second POD on time, and both were retrieved on the day(s) of delivery as promised.

    I used PODS to transfer my household furnishings and items to another state to our new home. From the start when the 16ft box was dropped off at my house in NJ everything went super smooth. The driver was very professional and experienced and also picking it back up. The pod arrived here in Florida as scheduled and the driver that dropped the box was also professional and very experienced. The next day a new driver picked the empty box up and was very professional also and experienced at what he does. The whole process from beginning to the end was super smooth. I would definitely recommend pods if you are moving. You load it yourself and they do the rest!!!

    Planned a move from RI to Maine. Was told 30 days you get the pod. When it's full 1 day to pick up and in Maine within 3 days. Not true. Took almost a week for them to pick it up. Then another week to deliver it. They dropped it off with 2 days left in the month. They promptly charged me almost $500 more for having the pod 2 days over the 30 days. Huge surprise though when it was empty they came and got it right away. Scam. Don't recommend at all. They give false information and then rack up the fees while you wait for your things to arrive.

    My husband and I used PODS as we were moving only a couple miles away but with 3 young kids and no family help as we live in another state we needed time to pack boxes and just more time to get “moved.” PODS was the best option- our closing dates got changed a few times and it was so easy to just go online and change the dates of when the PODS would arrive at our house and when they would be picked up to go to our “new” house. For a contingent home sale PODS literally was our saving grace. The drivers were amazing and also everything moved amazing- nothing was broken when we unpacked.

    I am extremely happy with my PODS experience. Because I was not moving the entire contents of my home in Florida, the moving company I had hoped to use suggested that PODS would be a smarter, more economical move. They were right! I packed the items I intended to move; when the POD was delivered, I contracted with the moving company to load the POD the next day (they knew the best way to do that task; I would have had no idea!); on the third day the loaded POD was picked up. Two-and-a-half weeks later the POD was delivered to my home in NY; a weekend family get-together unloaded the POD; three days later it was picked up. The men who delivered and picked up the POD were professional, courteous, and always smiling and engaging. I do not intend to have to move again, but would not hesitate to use PODS again, and would recommend PODS to anyone considering a move.

    Was happy with the PODS method of moving. I think they need to be clearer when communicating the time delay between pickup and delivery to destination. The delivery and pickup drivers in Texas and Florida were absolutely the best. Polite and efficient and tolerant with the short delays caused by needing entry into a gated community. I would recommend PODS for moving on a budget.
