I booked a flight across the country specifically to meet with PODS so I could be there while everything was being moved out. Unfortunately, they canceled on me at the last minute. Because of this cancellation, I was left paying for my flight, hotel, food, and the time I had to take off from work—all for a trip that was no longer necessary. Despite the significant inconvenience and expenses I incurred because of the cancellation, I was not reimbursed for any of them. All I received was a simple apology.
I am extremely disappointed with how this situation was handled. I wish I had read more of the reviews about how frustrating the experience can be before booking with them. In my experience, the savings were simply not worth the stress, inconvenience, and lack of accountability. I would strongly recommend considering another moving company. Personally, I would recommend Lexell Moving Company based on my experience.

I tried to book with Pods. I requested a quote through their website late one night. I called the next morning to book it. I had my customer number and the quote. When I was repeating everything in my quote I noted the delivery fee, transport fee, protection, move to a new location fee and the monthly fee. Repeated the amount then said my credit card will be charged monthly with the recurring monthly fee. They said yes and quoted an amount $55 more than what my quote said they monthly recurring fee would be. They proceeded to say that amount was just for one month but nothing in the quote said that. Typical bait and switch. They would not honor the quote they sent. Made me wonder what else they would pull on me if I booked with them.

After, taking a day off from work to receive delivery of my POD (after 5-10 emails and text messages confirming delivery day/time as well as taking my money), I was notified 15 minutes into the delivery window by a delivery driver that PODS was unable to fulfill my request. I then had to spend 2 hours on the phone canceling the order and requesting my refund. Stay away and go thru another provider. You will be glad you did.

We are very pleased with PODS. Their communication was outstanding. They were on time. The men who delivered the PODS and picked them up were professional. The ONLY issue we have is the stupid door design. First, a roll up door wastes space and is inefficient. It should be a door on a hinge. If items shift, and they will shift, they can block the door from rolling up, making it very difficult so make sure that you open your POD when the delivery person is still on location so he can "shake" the POD if need be. Second, the door on one of the two pods was damaged and thus more difficult to open. This design should be updated for future PODS when new ones are rotated into service and old ones are taken out of service. Hopefully PODS will make this change.

I used PODS for moving and storage, and my experience with them was great. I booked it online and that went really well. All my communications were through there. The price could always be more affordable, but I was pleased. It was cheaper than using the U-Haul storage facility nearby. The only thing I didn't know was I needed to schedule in advance to give them time to get the pod out. PODS could make sure people understand that they need to make advance arrangements to take a look at the content.

I needed a single pod delivered to my former home and booking a pod was easy. I loaded it up, and Pods took it from there to my new home. It was clean when we got it and the exterior was in great shape. The door moves easily up and down. I was told it was an older pod, but it didn't look like it. Everything was perfect.
Your words mean a lot to us! Thanks, Michael!

I liked the convenience of using PODS and the size of the pod. I booked the larger pod online and my experience was a 10 out of 10. The driver who dropped off the pod was really great. He called me beforehand, and I was able to walk out the spot since it was in a townhome community, and we had parking spots. The pickup and the drop-off and the second pickup were really great. They were contactless, and they just picked it up and dropped it off and did a great job. PODS is very convenient if you need to store and move your stuff.

I liked the price and equipment of PODS. So, I booked with them online and it was easy. I ordered the 12 foot pod and the reps I interacted with were both really nice, helpful, and communicative. The pickup was easy, too. I had it dropped off on a day, then I scheduled the pickup right away for the next day, which was nice. It was out of my driveway and wasn't even there for 24 hours. The price seemed fair and overall, it was convenient to use PODS.

I needed to have some work done on the outdoor shed. It's two rooms. And the weather was so bad. I didn't want to keep putting everything outside to be able to go through it and see what was there. I went with Pods, and it was pretty easy to use, especially for the first time and not knowing anything. The pod was clean, and it was pretty sturdy. They came on time. Everything was pretty good. I was just nervous ‘cause I never did anything like that before. I was satisfied, and I'd do it again.

My daughter recently relocated from Washington State to Virginia. Not knowing her final exact location (which she explained to the PODS person) they agreed she would be in the Richmond area, so the POD could be sent to Richmond and then the final leg would be determined when the location was finalized. Several options had been reviewed ahead of time and when they arrived they quickly (in one day) signed (rented) for a new house and were able to move in one week later. They called PODS and were told the pod would be delivered the following Tuesday.
Nothing has gone right since then. They have now been waiting over four weeks and the resolution from PODS is for my daughter to rent a truck, drive to Richmond, unload the POD into her rental truck, drive back to her new home (about an hour and 20 minutes away) and unload it. All the while she is being charged fees for storage. PODS' explanation is they are not in their delivery area. OMG, you are a trucking company!!!! Put on your big boy pants and deliver the POD, it's what you do, it's what your website says you do.

Buyer Beware - DO NOT USE PODS. We used PODS (booked through our Costco membership) to store our furniture during a home remodel for the months of July and August, 2026. The delivery was great, we loaded our main living furniture into the POD, and it never left our driveway. However, when the remodel was complete we began unpacking the POD, we found there was a major leak which ruined thousands of dollars worth of furniture. Our mattress soaked up about 8 inches worth of rain water, and our wood furniture was completely ruined.
We contacted PODS, sent numerous pictures and videos of the damage, and we were assured they would handle it appropriately. We were told by Ashley and Carlos that the POD would be picked up the following week for testing, and that they would contact us with a resolution. Instead, the POD was not picked up and we were charged for an additional month because they were short on drivers. We still have not been reimbursed for that month.
The POD was finally picked up the following week, September 4. We met the driver in our driveway to ensure he knew that this POD should be taken for “testing.” He knew nothing about the situation, and the POD was about to be returned into the normal rotation, for the next homeowner. We have called and emailed PODS numerous times and they will not return our calls or emails. We have an advocacy claim, that they are ignoring. We have lost well over $10,000 worth of furniture that had to be thrown away due to mold and warping of the wood, and are still deciding how to proceed with this matter.

⭐ Extremely Disappointing Experience — Would Not Recommend. Our experience with PODS has been absolutely horrible. Everything was fine until our POD was moved. Once it was repositioned, the door would no longer open, leaving us completely unable to access any of our belongings. We contacted PODS and were told someone would come out to reposition the container so we could open it. The person supposedly came out, but nothing was actually fixed. Even more frustrating, they documented that they had spoken with one of us while they were there — which did not happen. Because virtually all of our belongings are locked inside this POD, we have now had to stay in a hotel while waiting for PODS to correct a problem caused after they moved the container. This has created additional expenses, major inconvenience, and unnecessary stress.
The customer service throughout this situation has been extremely disappointing. We have spent our time trying to get answers and get someone to take ownership of the problem, with very little urgency or accountability. When you trust a company with essentially everything you own, you expect them to take that responsibility seriously. At the very least, when something goes wrong, you expect prompt communication and an immediate effort to make it right. That has not been our experience with PODS. At this point, we simply want access to our belongings and for PODS to take responsibility for the additional expenses and inconvenience their failure to resolve this issue has caused. I would strongly caution anyone considering PODS based on our experience.

My experience with PODS was an absolute nightmare from start to finish. If you need a storage container delivered on time, stay away from PODS. My first delivery was scheduled for Tuesday between 8:00 AM and 12:00 PM. That window was later changed to 3:30–6:45 PM—and then PODS simply did not show up. No phone call. No email. No explanation. Absolutely no communication whatsoever. Every time I called customer service, I was given assurances about when the container would arrive, but none of the timelines they provided were ever met. I was also unable to get any meaningful tracking information. After speaking with a representative, the delivery was rescheduled for Wednesday, 8:00 AM–12:00 PM. I was specifically assured that it would be delivered first thing in the morning.
The next morning, however, I received a text saying the delivery window was now 2:30–5:30 PM. When I called PODS, their automated system was showing yet another window of 3:30–6:45 PM. At this point, the conflicting information was beyond frustrating. The customer service experience was even worse. The representative I spoke with was one of the rudest customer service people I have ever encountered. She was practically yelling at me. When I asked to speak with a manager, instead of simply transferring me, she repeatedly questioned why I needed to speak to one. When I explained that I wanted to speak with a manager, she responded, “You’re not answering my question.” She then proceeded to transfer me to cancellations—not a manager.
The next representative told me the container should arrive by 1:10 PM. Once again, that time came and went with no delivery and no communication. When I called again, I was told there were two deliveries ahead of me and that my container should arrive later that evening. At 6:27 PM, I received an email saying we were “the next step.” Then, at 7:22 PM, I received another email stating that the delivery had been rescheduled yet again for the following day. At that point, I had enough. I cancelled the order. What makes this even more frustrating is that virtually every time I spoke with a representative, I was told that a customer-service survey would be sent to my email. Not once did I actually receive the survey. That pretty much sums up the entire experience with PODS: promises, excuses, and no follow-through.
I immediately called UNITS, and they delivered my storage container on time the very next day. The difference was night and day. PODS was unreliable, disorganized, poorly communicated, and extremely frustrating to deal with. Missing delivery windows is one thing, but repeatedly providing inaccurate information, failing to communicate, and then treating a frustrated customer disrespectfully is completely unacceptable. Save yourself the aggravation. Stay away from PODS. I would never use this company again and cannot recommend them to anyone. UNITS earned my business simply by doing what they said they would do.

PODS was great. I used them for moving and storage. I booked the pod over the phone. Their reps sounded like a real person. I was bummed to learn after I was done for a year using two, big 16 footers, that Costco uses PODS. I didn't know that. When it's all said and done, I might have paid close to that. I spent a bit of money. We still have to figure out what the bottom line is. But I checked it with a lot of other companies and PODS didn't rip me off. I am sure I wanted PODS. And the way everything worked was good. I know the way their whole system works. It's like no other. I met certain people a few times, because they picked up and delivered, and some were the same for the second pod. I feel like I'm a part of the PODS family.

So I haven’t even received my 8’ pod and already I’m extremely dissatisfied with this company when I ordered my pod, I stressed to the gentleman who I ordered it with that I needed it in the morning. He reassured me that would not be an issue. It took probably a half hour to 45 minutes just to get everything going and get all the information and again I stressed I needed it in the morning. The next day I get a text telling me that’s gonna be here between 2 and 5 PM so I called Pods. The lady told me she had to talk to the warehouse manager and that he said that he couldn’t do it and if I wanted it done, it would have to be a premium of 80 bucks. I told him I’d pay the 80 bucks which nobody mentioned the first time when I reserved it, still they said they could not drop it off in the morning.
I was supposed to leave to drive 2000 miles today watch out for the hidden charges. This company does not care about customer service if I could I’d cancel it and use somebody else but I can’t get somebody else out here. Same day completely dissatisfied with this company and I will never use them again and I’ll be sure to tell everyone I know to use someone else. They got one star because I could not choose zero stars

Our experience was good until we opened our second container, which was filled mostly with our dining, living room and bedrooms furniture and found damage caused during the transportation phase to all of our living room pieces, 4 of our 6 dining set chairs and our dinning table, plus a dresser and a queen bed head board. The damaged pieces will cost thousands of dollars to replace and repair. We will advise anyone who chooses PODS to personally wrap their own furniture and not trust the recommended packing company staff to do an adequate job.
We packed all our own boxes and tubs and had no damage. We trusted the approved packer/loaders to do a careful and complete job with all the packing blankets and shrink wrap we provided. Obviously, with damage caused by unwrapped, bare chair legs rubbing on other furniture pieces for over 2000 miles across America, we can not recommend PODS moving to others.

The delivery initially did not come prepared. Got stuck on the driveway. Spoke to customer service several times about scheduling, and no changes were made, delaying the delivery.

I would recommend PODS. It's a good service and they take good care of the furniture. It's very rare, especially with moving, to not have any complaints. It was exceptional. I would hire them again. I've used them in the past and had a good experience. Also, their pricing was better than the competition. We recently chose the 16-foot because the smaller size wouldn't have worked for a cross-country one-way trip. The move went well and the pod was delivered in perfect shape. The drop-off was also a good experience. The drivers were friendly, capable, and professional. Also, the technician was friendly. Those guys worked hard. It would be nice to give them an option somewhere to tip them. It would be the right thing to do.

My wife and I (75 & 74) had decided to move to Western NC but had no idea where exactly just a general idea of a location. Once we sold our home we would be homeless until we found a place. PODS offered the service we needed at that time. They delivered a POD to our house and we packed it up in a couple of days and they picked it up. They always had very good communication, letting us know the times and dates of where our pod was. After a month we found a place, made an offer and in another month closed and had the pod delivered to our new location. PODS did everything they said they would. And while I cannot say it was easy I only mean the packing and unpacking which was not so easy but dealing with PODS was very easy!

Working with PODS—from start to finish—was a mostly frustrating experience with many errors and ambiguities. In the end, the process worked but was very costly, obviously in dollars but also in emotional capital. Moving is stressful enough. PODS did a number of things to make the process much more time consuming, risky, and stressful.
There were bright spots: 1) the drivers on both ends were nice, cordial, professional, and capable, 2) Steven ** of the Greensboro office was difficult to reach but when I was able to reach him he was very competent, friendly, and capable in being able to undo errors and problems made by other aspects of the PODS process, 3) Brian ** in the Temple, TX office (?) was also quite nice and willing to help where he could. In the end, all of our possessions arrived in good condition and on time so I cannot too hard on the company, but my goodness they really stress you out and make you work super hard to do things that are normal or ordinary and that should be able to be achieved through a good web portal.

Because we're older, PODS is a good way to have everything moved and transported. I liked the convenience. I wouldn't have to handle it myself. We moved from my brother's house, who was deceased.

They made sure everything was cleared out and helped us clear out everything, because I had to move the second car. I thought one car would be enough, but we had to move the second car so the driver could get in. Everything went okay. They were professional and good good on communicating.

Their reviews can hardly get much worse but here goes. We paid faithfully every month. Then we paid almost $2500 dollars for them to move our pod across the country. While they were moving it, and over a week late, they decided to charge us ANOTHER almost $350 storage fee (when they aren't even storing anything!!!) and refused to refund the money back. What greed!!! Certainly barely new these days. Literally while it's moving here, they're charging me for storage!!! There are many other options these days. Use anyone else.

PODS did a very good work for our move. It was smooth, the communication was great. The organization is flexible and easy to adjust. We will certainly re-work with PODS in the future. The only caveat is that on your website you say that the employee can install the pods as we want in our place (door to the left, right, back or front...). But at the end the employee tells you "no this is not possible to put the door this side I can only put it this way", and the next employee for the second pod tells you the opposite and puts it as you wanted.

You would try to talk to a person, and you couldn't get through to a person. It was all automated. I would always say, "Go online, too," and it was, "No, I want a person."

When I received the POD I noticed it had a smell as if it had been sprayed for bugs. I should have called the company and asked for another one. When I emptied my POD my furniture, clothes, and everything smelled like exterminator fluid! I have been washing EVERYTHING since. I am extremely unhappy. The rental of the POD was very expensive and I feel this should not have happened.

For the most part it was very good, the drivers were excellent, on time and professional. Customer service was great in the beginning and in Clearwater FL, when I had to call because our Pods were seating at local Pods storage facilities in NH for over a week and not being transported to the Utah facility to wait for our final destination in Utah. The then customer service was foreign speaking and would not come off their script and was not helpful at all. We finally bought our house and had an address only to find out that Pods doesn’t deliver to our new home and we can unload the Pods at the Utah storage facility in West Valley. Again they were very frustrated to work with and no resolve.
We were frantic and stuck in limbo until my wife Googled and found the leadership of Pods and emailed them of our desperate situation, that must have struck a nerve and we got a call from Anthony the Regional Manager and that he coordinated with Cody the local manager at the Utah storage facility and dates scheduled were scheduled for our Pods to be transferred from the east coast to Utah and delivered to our home. We had to pay extra because our house was outside the normal delivery area. That’s what they don’t disclose there are places that they don’t deliver to even though they advertise differently. Thumbs up to Anthony and Cody and the Utah drivers Matt and Tom, they made a bad situation better.

First setting up for my PODS was easy. But they are not right on how many you need. Their sizes do not match on how they say ie: size of house. I was moving a 4 bedroom - 4400 sq ft house. They said in the estimate that the 16 ft plus an 8 ft POD would work. NO it didn't! Last minute had to jump through hoops to get a 3rd POD which I wanted a 16 ft and they only had an 8ft. I had to leave many things behind. I was overcharged in so many ways. The drivers that delivered them were great!!! The team that picked them up at my destination were wonderful!!!

I would highly recommend PODS to family and friends, especially for anyone who is comfortable handling some of the packing and preparation themselves. For our move, we chose a hybrid approach. We packed and prepared our belongings ourselves, but hired professional movers to load everything into the PODS containers. Overall, it was a great experience and gave us a lot more flexibility than a traditional moving company.
One of the biggest advantages was that PODS connected us with movers through HireAHelper. This was a game changer for us. We went from not knowing which movers to trust to having a list of well-reviewed moving companies that we could compare and choose from. It made that part of the move much less stressful.
Another major plus was the special promotion PODS was offering at the time. The savings were significant for us and made the overall cost of our move much more reasonable. I also really liked the flexibility of having the containers for an extended period. Instead of having to pack and move everything in one or two days, you can plan ahead and gradually load things during evenings or weekends. Then, when it comes to the heavy furniture and other difficult items, you can hire movers to take care of the heavy lifting.
We chose to have movers load our PODS, but someone who is comfortable doing the loading themselves could save even more money. For families who want more control over their move, time to pack at their own pace, and the option of hiring movers only for the heavy work, I think PODS is an excellent solution. We were very happy with our experience and would definitely use PODS again.

I was very disappointed with customer service reps that didn’t seem able to function beyond their scripts. They were difficult to hear and understand. I was particularly unhappy with the call to have my pod delivered and the call to find out about a prorated refund on the monthly storage. One was about inability to communicate with the customer and understand a “different” sort of situation than the scripts covered. The other was about a policy hidden in the fine print that was never communicated verbally and makes no sense. My pod was picked up FIVE days after a billing but is only prorated if it’s picked up within THREE days? That’s ridiculous, and the policy, along with the rep’s approach will keep me from doing business with Pods in the future.

When we had a closing date scheduled we arranged the delivery of our pod the day after closing with a pick up 2 days later. What a great experience with this company!!!

PODS has been the BIGGEST mistake I have ever made! My POD was picked up in NJ and taken to Fl. I was quoted one price, and have been being ROBBED!!! I'm well over 6k already, and they have the nerve to charge me another 1900.00 to have it delivered 42 miles to my new destination! They charge me $397 a month storage. I informed them from day one I was buying a new home in Florida but didn’t have an address yet. Only that it would be near my billing address in Jupiter (staying with my daughter). They chose to put it in West Palm. Now because my address is 2 miles more than the “40” mile range, it went from $125.68 (original quote) to 1900.00 because new address is 42 miles! They literally moved my POD to Port St. Lucie, 10 miles north of new address!!!!
Instead of just delivering it to me in Palm City!!! They had to drive 10 miles north of me!!! They passed my address delivering it further north just so they could charge me $1900.00!!!! DO NOT TRUST THIS CO!!! I'm filing a lawsuit. Contacting FMCSA, FTC, and my State Attorney General, I have tried to work with them. Plead with them. Only to be talked to like I did something wrong! By the time this is over, I'm out over 7k!! They could care less!

I want to express my disappointment with both the significant increase in the final charges and the outcome of the review. When I originally placed my order, I was quoted a total price of $7,902 for two 16-foot containers, excluding the two locks that I subsequently removed from the order. I relied on that quoted price when making my decision to proceed with PODS, particularly because I was actively considering other moving options at the time. At the end of the move, I was charged a total of $8,462.22. I am therefore disappointed that the review did not result in the original quoted price being honored.
I understand that there may have been additional charges associated with the service. However, my concern is that the final amount differs from the price I was quoted when I made the decision to book with PODS. I believe it is reasonable to expect PODS to honor the pricing that was presented to me at the time of booking, particularly when that pricing was an important factor in my decision.
I respectfully request that PODS reconsider the outcome of the review and adjust the charges to honor the original quoted price of $7,902. I would appreciate a clear explanation of the basis for the additional charges and why the original quoted price cannot be honored. I hope PODS will reconsider this matter and work with me toward a fair resolution.

Honestly a great experience! Pickups and drop offs were easy, and every representative I spoke too was great.

Also get several quotes since many providers will negotiate. All that said, I had a great experience with PODS.

They tried to do a good job. One person did a little damage to the lawn but he didn't mean it. He was kind of a new guy, so he had a little trouble running the Podzilla thing. But the other three, not only the one in Virginia, but the two that have done delivery and pickup here in Fayetteville, North Carolina, were really nice people. We've also gotten some information from their customer service reps.

I was moving and I called someone at PODS to book an 8-foot container. The rep I talked to was great and the drivers were very good. I had to reschedule the pick-up, but I did that online and I liked the flexibility of being able to move dates online. That seemed to work out well. I also appreciated the communication about arrival times and that was all really smooth.

I wish PODS was a publicly traded company. I would invest in their stock. They're very good. We're very happy. I have looked at a few other companies and they had time constraints, whereas PODS did not have any time constraints on how long it could be stored. You had to pay for it, but you could take as long as you wanted to. Others required three days to fill it up. That was not going to work for us. I also had another friend that had made the very similar move and they said they used PODS and were very happy with them also.
We relocated from Los Angeles to Chattanooga, Tennessee and we used two of the 16-foot-long PODS containers. They were transported for us out here, and we removed all of our household items from them. Exceptional. Good individuals. Very hot days and offered them water and they said, "No, thank you so much. We have water inside the truck." Everything went very smoothly. A very good experience. Would highly recommend it to anybody else out there that's doing a similar move.

Whatever I put in the pod was fine and there was nothing broken. Nothing was out of place either. PODS had an expert packer and he knew what he was doing. He packed everything and nothing shifted. Also, they took the pod from Lititz, PA to wherever they stored it, and from wherever they stored the pod to Effort, Pennsylvania. If anyone intends to use PODS for a move like I did, and he's going to have the pod delivered and picked up, he should ask for the lady driver who serviced me. She did a very good job.

I needed moving and storage services and Pods was much more convenient for me. I booked a 16-foot pod online and I probably could have gone with something smaller, but it was fine.

I looked into other semi-long-distance services, and I didn’t trust them. They used third parties. I had a friend who used Pods from Idaho to Washington and had a good experience. Pods’ rate was fair, and when I talked to them and set it up, I felt comfortable. I wanted to load it myself and felt a little bit more in control. The items that we were having transported from Washington to Colorado would be safer than in some truck with other people's stuff. The pod that I got was clean and perfect. I wasn't transporting a million-dollar couch or things like that, but I wanted my stuff safe. My sister had a horrible experience when she used a regular company, which was one of the name-brand movers. They hired a third party, and she ended up with somebody else's stuff and broken things. And I didn't want that experience. So, people should do their research.

We used Pods before and we were happy with the service. We went with them again and the booking process was confusing. We booked four pods. Then my husband told me we only needed three and a half. Then he told me we needed the fourth. So, they set up a new order for the fourth. And I didn't realize it was a new order and didn't schedule anything because I thought it was on the old order. We only got two delivered. One came a few days after we moved in, and the other took a couple of weeks.
We had that for two and a half weeks. It was unloaded the next day. We got it the 18th of July, and they couldn't pick it up till the first part of August. It sat in our driveway, empty, for two weeks. We still have two pods in storage. And that's a benefit ‘cause we haven't found a house we’re permanently moving into. So, a lot of that stuff's in the storage pods.
But we got a call from them shortly after we moved into this house, that one of them was damaged. And we had to drive up and look at it. It took the people in the storage facility quite some time to get it open ‘cause the load shifted during transit and it bowed out the door. So, I don't know what the condition of all the stuff in that pod is. I have no clue yet.

I was moving from Seattle to Austin, and I only needed an 8-foot pod. I booked it online, but then I called and did it over the phone.

My experience with Pods was good. Our church was building a new garage to replace the old garage. So, we needed a storage unit on-site to put the items into while we constructed the new garage. We were moving from New Jersey out to Wisconsin, and we used Pods to move our household goods. And I thought, “Let's use them again." It was the name that I was familiar with. This time, I tried to book a service by phone, but I could not reach a live voice. I just couldn't get through. I ended up driving to the local PODS warehouse, which is only 15 minutes away from where I live. I drove there and was able to find someone in the office. And I know that, normally, that's not how it's done. But I had specific questions that I needed to ask, and I wasn't able to reach anyone. The rep I was able to talk to was very helpful.
When they came to drop it off and to pick it up, they came and did what they had to do and it was good. When the driver was dropping the pod off, I wanted it to face a certain direction in our parking lot, and he was hesitant to do that because he was going to have to drive across our grass and he didn't want to do that. I said, "That's okay. Just go ahead." So, he did. But I appreciated his consideration that he did not want to go driving across our grass, but he was willing to when I told him to. Everything was great in every way.

We were moving and we kept our stuff in the pod for about two months. We went with PODS for the convenience of being able to have our stuff there in our driveway. We were selling a house and buying another one so the timeline wasn't nailed down. Our experience with PODS was very positive in every way. The drivers were friendly and were there when they were supposed to be there. The only complaint I had was when they originally dropped off the pod, the time kept jumping around. I'd get notified that it'd be between this time and this time. But 30 minutes later, I'd get another notification saying it was going to be another time. But once they settled on a time, they were there within that timeframe and everything went well. It was only that first time when I had the issue. Each other time when they came to pick it up and drop it off and the final pick it up were all one time.

My experience with Pods went quite well. Their price was competitive as well. It was right there with the others. I wanted a self-serve where I did all the packing and unpacking, and the pod sits on the ground, which is what made it really nice. At the time of the move, they had to take it up into a high truck. It's really slick having it sit on the ground. The drivers were great. However, the scheduling was slow and kind of difficult. When I loaded them up to leave, the online scheduling wanted me to schedule a visit to my pods at some storage center. I didn't want to visit them. I just wanted them moved to Louisiana. After a couple of days of fighting it, I finally had to call them and just say, “I just want to schedule it.” That worked. Their online system seems neat, but it's got some glitches in it.
I had the same experience trying to get the pods picked up. They dropped them off. I had them unloaded that day, but then I had to wait two days before I could even schedule them to get them picked up, and then they sat in my driveway for three weeks. But their customer service was great. I’ve already recommended them to other friends who moved around the country.

The communication process with an online account plus the 800# option are both difficult. The online option does not work with customer questions or comments and there is always a long wait to speak with a rep on the 800#. Please know that once a POD is transported to a local storage facility, there is no direct way to contact that facility. I was pleased with the transport from my driveway in AL to a storage facility in PA. Because my plan was NOT to have the POD delivered to my PA home I was required to call the 800# to schedule an "Access Appointment"; the hours are limited to 8:00am-2:00pm M-Sat, no Sundays. Because I was informed of this policy too late, I was not able to set an appt to access my POD the day after it was delivered to the storage facility. While the basic concept of the POD worked, the communication and management is not customer friendly.

I know about PODS well, which was why I decided to use them for both moving and storage for a couple of days. I booked a 16-foot pod over the phone and the rep gave me a good price. The drivers were very professional and knowledgeable with the modular. They performed well. The very first driver who brought the pod to me originally picked it up as well. He was exceptional. Pods work out much better than a moving van, a moving company, or even better than U-Haul. With U-Haul, you have to pick up the truck and use it right away because you're not on the truck for long. With Pods, you have the pod and you have the time to pack, which is difficult. With having to work and take care of things, it was effective. Pods is a very good company to deal with and I'd recommend it to others.

Pods did exactly what I wanted. I wanted somebody to bring a container to my house, and I filled it up, and they took it away to the new location. So it was simplistic. We had the standard consumer one, and we had a commercial one also. The consumer one had that sliding door, and that was a real pain in the neck. We worked it, but it kept getting stuck, and items shifted inside. But it was a minor issue for us. But I can see where it could cause problems for others.

I was lied to about the cost, storage, and transportation. Plus when i had to access the PODS where it was stored I got kicked out at 2:30pm and 3:00pm on two different occasions. I was sold on using their company to combine packing and shipping costs. I was convinced to pay over three times what I had been paying for storage, because I was told the extra cost was for the transportation, but when I called to set up the transportation I was told they wanted an additional five thousand, then the employee made a big deal about how he would save me money and I only had to pay him $3,600 for a service that I had already been paying on for over a year. So I was left to transport things myself. But after driving 9 1/2 hrs to the location (I arrived around 1pm) I was told they were closing so I had to leave and reschedule another visit.
Evidently they wanted to close early, since I had confirmed before my trip that they were supposed to be available until 5pm. Since I had gotten chased out i had to make another 20 hour drive day (9 1/2 down and then back) but the second time I arrived at 1:30 and started to unload my belongings. Within 20 minutes an employee came out telling me how they were all ready to leave and if I wanted to access my unit I could return after 8:30am the following day. So I started to unload and repack everything just so I could sleep in my truck and wait for them the following morning. Only to then have the employee come out and point out how he was doing me some huge favor by being able to stay 20 min. I had to make a third trip to retrieve my belongings and I now know that I will never let another veteran use this service without warning them.

Our experience with PODS was disappointing from beginning to end. We were quoted one price, but ultimately paid more for the containers and transportation than we had been quoted. Then our containers arrived 9 days later than the scheduled delivery date, leaving our family living out of suitcases for more than a week while we waited for our belongings. To make matters worse, after unpacking we discovered that our dining room table had a cracked pedestal. We had purchased PODS' optional Contents Protection, packed the table with moving blankets, and secured it as part of a stable load. When we opened the container, nothing appeared to have shifted and no other furniture was damaged.
Despite that, our claim was denied on the basis of "normal shifting" and "improper packing." When I asked what evidence supported those conclusions or what aspect of the packing was supposedly improper, I was not given a specific explanation. I was also told that the investigation materials used to make the decision were confidential. Moving is stressful enough without unexpected charges, significant delivery delays, and an insurance claim process that leaves you with more questions than answers. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend PODS.
We're certainly disappointed to see this, Neal. Unfortunately, we can’t control the insurance company's policies, and we can’t negotiate with them in regards to what claims are approved or denied.

PODS is the worse company. They changed their delivery guidelines after my order was placed to State College and never let me know. Initially I did not know my new address and had given them my zip code, which never changed. The night before my pod arrived to move out of my apartment, I called and they told me they don’t deliver to State College but they were able to see that’s where all my documentation said and that it was my final destination in my account. One supervisor told me I could get movers paid for from the closest warehouse (2 hours away) and then billing denied it saying that “we knew” they don’t deliver to State College before the pod arrived, so it’s our fault for proceeding. We were never notified of the guideline change and they confirmed that multiple times on the phone.
We spent 6+ hours dealing with their customer service associates and no resolution was found as these people were unhelpful and would not call back. Our final “resolution” was an “generous discount” of about $200 which resulted in a lot of stress accessing the nearest warehouse and getting a U-Haul to get to our final destination. Additionally, after scheduling a visit to our pod in storage for a month later, they started the shipping process immediately and could not tell me where my pod was. We decided to put an AirTag in it after that experience, but thankfully it was still in our city. This is the worse company known to man.

I needed containers to move across the country to move pieces of furniture, articles and clothing. I had used Pods before, so thought I'd give them another shot. The booking process was done through the phone, speaking to agents in respective places and giving them the dates and the times when I wanted and the size of the container I wanted, where I wanted it, the day and time I wanted it there, and then the day and time I needed it picked up and transported.
The pod was very sturdy, very clean inside and neat looking on the outside. A few minor dents and a few minor scratches, which happens. But the doors worked pretty well most of the time, could get a little sticky every now and then, especially after you've moved and furniture has shifted, boxed the door a little bit. But all in all, good. I like that we could pack our materials ourselves, have them loaded onto a pod, and know that once they were locked, they were gonna be transported and kept until we needed them in good condition.

Be aware that PODS is a dysfunctional company. We are still trying to finalize a move from California to Washington state. My wife arranged delivery of the first empty units in California - sales seemed friendly and helpful. We had a 3 bedroom home so they suggested starting with 2 x 16’ units. First POD arrives and I pack it with my record collection, comics and audio gear. Driver comes to pick it up. Laughs at the weight, but drives away - no problem. Suggests we should be mixing furniture with boxes. I do so over another 3 x 16’ units in total. We have more stuff than typical apparently.
We get to Washington and buy a home. Have the 4 units shipped north - no problem. The first 2 units are delivered on the day we take possession of our new home. We empty. All good. The last 2 are scheduled to arrive a couple days later - these were the first 2 we packed. The emptied units are removed and 1 of the 2 final units is delivered. This was the first unit I packed. Driver, Tom tells me it’s very heavy, and I must have filled it high but that’s it. Then we wait for the final unit. And wait. And wait. Nothing. No notice. My wife calls. Finally informed by customer service that the local yard in Everett, WA is refusing to ship the unit. It’s overweight. We are annoyed and surprised as there’s been no suggestion at any point up to now. But we are told it’s overweight - read the contract.
I read the contract. Weight limit on 16’ units is lower than the limit on 12’ units, which in turn is lower than the weight limit on 8’ units. Not what I expected. Probably not what most expect. PODs sales made absolutely no mention of this. Just asked how many more 16’ units we wanted. Had we shipped in 2 x 8’ units, we wouldn’t have been overweight. I guess that’s the past. So I arrange to visit the last unit today and remove items to reduce weight. Make 3 x 40 mile round trips with a Sprinter and remove half the contents. Assume they’ll deliver it now… Weight is reduced, all is safe. But no. Everett yard manager informs staff to tell us that we have to empty it completely in the yard. Will not deliver the unit under any circumstance. What the what!?! This is clearly a discretionary decision to punish us. For what? We filled the units the PODs sales team suggested we use! Arbitrary. Petty.
We are $11K+ into this move and I don’t know when we’ll actually have all our stuff. The yard is only open on Saturdays on weekends, and then only until 3pm. I can’t take time off work to travel up to grab stuff mid-week. Learn from our experience, the employees in this company do not see it as one company nor do they work in unison. The guy in the yard doesn’t care if sales made a mistake… I should just complain about sales. Doesn’t care that everyone before them picked up units and never suggested there was a problem. Apparently we should have known, and he’s doling out the punishment. I guarantee we will never use PODs services again. Wish us luck in getting the remainder of our possessions in the meantime.
