    I needed to store some stuff for a while, while we were doing some work on the house. I found PODS online. The website was fine. Booking went great and the price was the best. The pod was placed exactly where I wanted it. Well done.

    PODS was great. They delivered on time. I wish it was a little earlier so I didn't have to pay the extra monthly fees when I was just a couple of days late on returning. I tried to get them to pick up the pod earlier and they only had this certain pickup date, which made me run late for the monthly fee. The delivery guys weren't allowed because of their time frame, but they were very understanding and they apologized. Other than that, they did deliver my stuff okay. Nothing broke and the delivery guys and the pickup guys were great and also very kind to me. They helped me open the doors since it was just me doing everything. I would always recommend PODS because they did deliver.

    We were moving cross-country, and we needed to get stuff stored and moved. PODS seemed like a good solution for that. The booking process was very easy. We got a quote first, so we talked to somebody early on, and they were super helpful in explaining the process and everything. Then, it was easy to book it and arrange the date that they would drop the pod and when they’d pick it up.

    We did four 16-foot pods and they were very clean and the doors worked really well. The only complaint I would have is of the four pods, one of them was like an old one that was completely out of wood, and it was sort of lacking tie-down spots to sort of hold everything in. I asked one of the drivers about it afterward, and he said they are phasing those out. But that one I wasn't super happy with. The three of the four were really sturdy, had a lot of places to tie stuff down so nothing moves, and they worked out really well.

    We started the process with PODS in February. When we started in California, we filled the first pod and got it picked up. We had it in our house a week, and then we've figured out we could do a lot. We could fill it quicker than that. So, we would have them in our driveway for about a week. Our experience, overall, worked really well with what we were doing. For us, it was a really good solution. I don't know how we would have done things the way we did it like a standard mover. I don't know if we would have them come get stuff, and then it would have had to go into storage. For what we needed, that sort of transition from loading up the pod to it being stored is what worked out really well for us. Customer service was really good. Maybe there was a couple of times where I called and had to wait quite a while, but everybody was always super helpful. It was just a matter of getting through.

    I needed a place to store my furniture while my floors were being redone. And I picked PODS. I used them several years ago, and they're great. Their communication is wonderful. And they let you know by text, or if I had questions, I could call them. I've just been very happy with them. My sister was here when they delivered the pod. The gentleman was very cordial and explained to her what he was going to do and how he would do it, and she thought it was cool the way that they got settled into my driveway.

    The pod was clean. There weren't any leaks. We checked, ‘cause we had a downpour one night. The door stuck a little bit, but not too much. I'm not very big myself, but other people could open it easily. They were very helpful. I was able to keep my furniture in my driveway if I needed to get in there. I didn't have to transport it anywhere else where it’d get jiggled around. That was a plus. Then I had movers, and they could come right away and move the furniture back in.

    HORRIBLE COMPANY. I was forced to choose a date to "lock in my price", even though we are in the process of selling our home and don't know the date yet. I tried to go online to change the date and ALL dates for the next year are greyed out (highly unlikely). I called and was placed on hold for two hours. I finally said I would like a call-back (they falsely give that as an option). They NEVER called me back. It's 48 hours later. I called from my husband's phone as a new customer and they were magically available. When they found out I'm an existing customer, they put me on hold again for an hour. Not shockingly, I cancelled my order when someone was FINALLY available. this is unbelievable.

    If I could give them zero stars I would. They screwed me over MULTIPLE TIMES, and the customer service is absolute sh*t. I spent 2 hours trying to speak to someone and when a person finally answered, the audio was so terrible I couldn’t understand what they were saying AT ALL. They changed my pick up times and dates the day of and then 4 more times. This completely ruined every other moving logistic that was already set, movers, permits, travel, etc. They input my delivery location incorrectly and when I had the specific address to give them they claimed they had to delete that order and that with the new one, I couldn’t get the same deal so it was going to cost an additional $500. Even though it was their error. They promised they’d send me an email with my delivery and pick up windows, 24 hours before. I didn’t get one at all and then one came 3 hours before the stated time range.

    I got one of the containers from PODS and I booked it online. I ordered the biggest one and when it was delivered, the driver couldn't put it in the location that I wanted. Also, because they didn't drop my pod off on time, I had to reach out to them. The first three people I spoke to were horrible, then the last person eventually helped me out. At drop off, they gave me a four-hour window, told me they would be there, then nobody ever showed up or called. They wasted my day, so I was really upset about that. The last person gave me a credit and she finally got it resolved for me. She was excellent. But I didn't like the fact that I had to keep calling to chase people down to get the information I needed. They kept saying that their website was so informative, but it wasn't telling me anything.

    We used to live in Michigan State and we moved overseas for several years. When we moved back to the US, we moved to a different state. In that case, California. We still had a lot of furniture in the storage unit we had in Michigan. So, we needed to find a quick way to move that furniture back to California. When I looked online, PODS was one of the main advertiser. I compared prices with other delivery options and PODS seems to be the most affordable for us.

    PODS' website was very clear, very thorough, very well-detailed, and there was no hidden fee. So, that was a plus. The fee was cheaper than other companies that we contacted. We liked the quickness of the process. Between the moment we ordered the pod, the arrival of the pod, and the arrival to the end destination, everything fit perfectly in our schedule. The booking process was easy. I just made a phone call, they gave me a quote, and within the week, I was able to make a decision and it was very easy to settle. The only issue we had is I was moving furniture from one storage unit to another storage unit and because they were crossing states, there was some paperwork that needed to be done and they couldn't accept an address from Michigan that was a storage unit. They needed a physical address. They needed our previous house address. Other than that, it was a very easy, clean, and very quick process.

    We ordered just one pod and it was an 8 x 7, the smallest unit. It was extremely clean. It was bigger than we expected. We were wary about the thinness of the metal. It might be a little bit flimsy, but it was extremely sturdy. The door worked perfectly and there was no issues with it. We could fit everything we needed in it, and even more than we expected. It was a quick pickup and quick delivery. The pod was easy to put wherever we wanted on the spot. It was easier for us also to move our furniture in and out. That was very practical.

    One of the big advantages we had is that we were able to do all the movement ourselves. So, for people that are really concerned in how their things are going to be handled, if they rather do themselves, use their own personal strength to move things around and to position all their belongings inside the pod, that's the best way instead of hiring a moving company. If you want to do the work and handle things from A to Z, PODS is the best option.

    Pick up of my POD in California went smoothly, but the drop off has been a complete nightmare. Our POD was scheduled to be delivered yesterday (6/23) more than 2 weeks after it was picked up. We were given two emails with a confirmed drop off time only to be given a third email a few minutes after saying our delivery had been rescheduled to 7/7... that's a two week push... with no explanation. Just "if this doesn't work for you, contact us". So that's what I did... An hour and a half later I finally get an agent on the phone who says she will contact the warehouse to see what is going on and give me a call back. I wait three hours, no call back. I wait on hold for another hour and a half, get another agent who says there are "driver limitations" that caused my delivery to be rescheduled. He can't tell me what that means. He can't help me with why it will take two weeks even though I booked my move two months ago.

    I ask to be transferred to a supervisor... sit on hold for another 30 minutes waiting... Supervisor gets on the phone to tell me there is nothing she can do, there are "warehouse limitations" and July 7th is the earliest delivery date. I explain it is ludicrous to expect someone to be ok with waiting a month to get their life back. She says, "Sorry. There is nothing I can do." I say, "Fine, you can't deliver, I will go to the warehouse and pick up my items myself." (At this point it is important to note that their website says you can access your POD with a 24-to-72-hour notice.)

    The supervisor then puts me on hold again to tell me July 6th is the earliest I can access my POD at the storage yard. I ask her why... She doesn't know why. I tell her it sounds like they are not telling me the truth and there is something else going on. She says she can't tell me anything else. Also important to note, my neighbor three doors down had a POD delivered last week, their POD was picked up yesterday. Seems to me they could have sent the truck up to our address with my POD, dropped it and picked theirs up. Guess that is just too logical but goes to my point that "driver limitations" was a lie... Clearly you were able to provide service to my neighbor, just not me.

    So now here I sit, waiting two more weeks to get my life back with no guarantee that they won't do this same exact thing to me two weeks from now. This company has been horrible to deal with and I can't wait to get my stuff and for this to be over. And to your social media department, don't reply to this review with your stock "we're sorry, email us with your customer number so we can assist." I already did that, and you haven't responded.

    Terrible customer service. We scheduled our pickup date approximately one month in advance. The day of our scheduled pickup, PODS did not show up. We were not even notified that they wouldn't be coming. We called into customer service and it took a little over 2 hours to finally reach a supervisor. Was told by the supervisor that our date of pickup had been rescheduled for the following day. The supervisor said that he would personally call me the next morning to make sure things were on track. Again, PODS did NOT show up, and I never received a phone call from the supervisor. Once again, we are being told that we are rescheduled for the next day. We have already moved out of our home, and the new owners are doing their final walkthrough tomorrow, with our PODS still sitting in the driveway. Beware, I do not recommend using this company at all.

    I rented a 16 foot and 8 foot pod at the same time. PODS assured me that they would provide service throughout the moving process and would handle an issues quickly if they arose. I was not able to have PODs unit delivered to my home address and closest location was to a storage facility 3 1/2 hours from our address.

    The PODS were not able to be delivered to my new address so they went to storage unit across town. The morning of the unloading of the PODs, my moving people notified me that they were unable to get my 16 foot container open as the items in the unit shifted when they were unloaded on the site. They were not able to unload anything. We tried several attempts to contact PODs and only received message stating the wait time for customer service wouild be almost an hour each time we called.

    After several hours, we were able to get customer service to give a call back. We were told that my moving people should go to the office and inform them of the situation. I was told there were no answers when knocking on door and no-one was onsite to assist by the movers. Customer service says to tell them to go back to the door because there was some where there. Again my movers indicated that they were unable to see or hear anyone onsite. The result was several hours of wasted time for my movers which resulted in costing me more money. I was told by PODs that they would let me know when they contacted someone from the site.

    Additionally since movers were unable to unload, we requested the unit be available for the next day. I was told they would take care of that but only available day listed was 3 days later. I explained that the POD was on the lot and we need it for the next day (Saturday). Again no one called to follow up regarding this situation. When I logged onto my online account, it still stated we could unload on Monday. AS of 940 pm, no one has returned my call and last conversation with customer service they stated I needed to call back at 8 am.

    Fast forward, the contents of my 8 foot POD was delivered by my movers today. Imagine my surprise when I see all my boxes were soaked with water to the point that the boxes were falling apart. I had a brand new crib, Baby carriage, baby bouncers, dressers, boxes of clothing, family pictures and family photo albums, a brand new sofa and dining room furniture with the tags still in place from purchase. These were drenched with water. A baby car seat when flipped upside down had several inches of water inside.

    When speaking to customer service I indicated it was obvious that the POD had gone through a major event when traveling across the country and the POD leaked. I would have expected the amount of water if the container unit had been submerged in water and was surprised that even blankets in boxes were so dripping wet that you could wring the water out of them. No I am terribly concerned about the contents of our 16 foot unit that we were not able to access today and issues associated with mildew and mold now because of this. Customer service noted this and gave me a claim number and stated I would receive information regarding a claim for damages.

    I can take pictures of wet, collapsing boxes, but how do I prove damages due to water damage and how to I replace my deceased mother's family albums that have been ruined. Not happy at the moment that PODS has not helped resolve this issue and Now fear that all of our family's home contents and memories are gone. We trusted that PODS would come through and they have not. It is obvious now that we made at terrible mistake to ship with PODs. Will never again use this company for anything and will advise others not to as well. This has cost me financially more than $7,000 but cannot estimate damges and loss of family things.

    I used Pods for storage over a couple of days. Everything was done online. Originally, I had booked the largest size. Once I did the remeasurements of my driveway, I was able to go back online and make the change online without the assistance of anybody. The pickup and delivery were seamless, without issue. The driver was very professional.

    I had done a comparison before I used them. I had looked at the opposite of using a U-Haul trailer instead. I did a price comparison. And it wasn't about price overall, although they were very competitive compared; I was going to get a better product by going with the Pods than going with the U-Haul. I had used them before in the past. So, I was familiar with their product. I have used them before in the past for an extended period of time, one time. I used them for almost a whole year. But there were several years in between that space. But when they sent me this one, I could tell that it was a new, upgraded product, and the technician and I had talked about it.

    I am incredibly disappointed with the communication from PODS on my recent move. Despite the fact that I clearly explained the apartment front office would tell them where to place the container, they attempted to deliver when the office was closed. Of course, they made me pay a fine for this. When calling to determine when the container would be available, I waited on the phone for two hours before talking to someone. When someone took my call, she was confused about whether the container had even been delivered.

    In my opinion, they should know where the container is and be able to tell me when I can access it. Apparently, PODS disagrees. Eventually, I was able to unload the container into a U-Haul truck with the help of some movers, and then drive the truck to my apartment, before finally unloading the contents. I am just happy to be done with this. I know there aren’t a lot of options for companies that move belongings across the country, but please be aware that PODS’ communication is questionable at best.

    When I was trying to figure out when the pod would be dropped off at the new address, cause I'd done that online, and I wondered if I could change it, I called. We weren't able to make the change, but it was just a matter of timing. It was not a big deal. I've used Pods before. But this time, it was only a little over two months. I got the smallest one. It was perfect for what I needed. It was a short move. It was just within the same neighborhood, just a few blocks away. And it really was just to get enough stuff out of the house. The site's really user-friendly, and the questions all make sense. And having done it before, I might have some bias there, because I know what I need. The pickup and delivery were super easy. The guys were great. The drivers were two different gentlemen, but they were both wonderful. They knew what they were doing with those machines. It was kind of fun to watch.

When I call the pods number at (877) 770-7637 on their web site someone from collections or accounting answers and they have to forward the call to customer service. The automation on the web site is just as bad. After answering a lot of questions, it refers me to a human representative, who after 40 minutes still does not come online. Pods management needs to increase the number of moving specialists. The only reason this review got two stars instead of one is because of the driver who deliver and pick up the pods are great.

    Boy is it easy to reserve a POD but heaven help you if you need help after that. You will wait on the line until mold starts to grow. Oh and the other fraudulent activity PODS does is that they make sure that they can't pick up your POD until AFTER you get charged for another month. A week before I'd be charged for another month, I contacted them for pickup. NOPE. Amazing how they could only pick it up a day after I'd be charged for yet another month.

    I was moving pieces from my parents' family home to my house, and the person who took my order was wonderful. The drop-off of the container was also wonderful and the young woman was really good at helping us find a good place to put the pod. The guys who came and wrapped it did a fantastic job. And when it was delivered, everything was in a good place. So, there was no damage done, which was important. Overall, it was a positive experience. My only complaint was with the pickup. I had asked for a different time because I wanted to be there, and I was told they could accommodate it, but the driver said no. That was very uncomfortable because there were large family heirlooms in the container, and if something went wrong, and if that's where it went wrong, I would be very disappointed. The pickup guy could have a busy day, but if somebody said they could do it and then they couldn't, that is an epic fail.

    We're satisfied and I would recommend PODS because they do a good job, but with the caveat that you're sometimes at the driver's mercy. The paying customer should rule the day, and that didn't happen with my pickup. I would have given it a solid 4, but I'm not. I'm giving it a 3 because of this one bad experience. Otherwise, it was actually a 5. But he ruined it.

    My experience with Pods was very easy. I've used Pods before, so I just went to them again. All I needed was a storage space for two months at my house. I just picked the large one. I needed a lot of space. Others should make sure they get the right size for the price. ‘Cause I think the large and the medium size are the same price. Everything was done online. They came, dropped it off, and left. Delivery was just as expected, and when they came to take it away, it was just as expected, as well.

    I had an overall good experience with Pods. Everything went well. I got the large one. And I used it for approximately two and a half years total. The condition of the pod was good. I also like not having to unload and load multiple times again. However, I would use it for short-term, not long-term, ‘cause it is more expensive than typical storage units.

    I used PODS to move from California to Colorado. I used Costco discount so received the total of $426.65+$2739.97 = $3,166.62. For some reason, PODS just stored my container in Milpitas, CA for about 2 weeks. I called them to transport to Colorado, then received $320 discount for the confusion. I paid for both feels. After my container was delivered to my Colorado home, PODS sent me another invoice for $1082 for transit which I paid. I called to find out the issue and PODS confirmed that my Costco discount got taken off and I "agree to it". Because my discount got taken off, I am being charged another $1082. Why would I agree to take off a discount? Now, they are sending $1082 to collection. Their advocacy billing won't even listen.

    Jun 10 at 12:58 PM Message Body. PODS was a total nightmare for us. I cannot stress enough how bad they screwed us. I really hope this helps someone else to steer clear. Once they have your credit card it becomes open season and they will rack up your bill. I have about 16 invoices and statements on my account. Customer support will promise you over and over again the problems will be corrected but the majority of the time they didn't follow through and it will cost you! We moved from Massachusetts to Florida and we were originally invoiced for $3626.

    By the end of this nightmare the entire bill came to $4500, over 24 phone calls and countless emails to customer service, managers, some PODS advocacy group which was a joke. They dropped a cancelled container and went ahead and charged me for this POD they assured me wasn't being delivered. Corporate couldn't get in touch with local and you don't have any contact for the local supplier. PODS corporate literally told me the supplier wouldn't answer the phone and to call them back. A $1 billion company stated this to me. After picking up the original packed POD the supplier didn't deliver it to the POD storage in Florida that would deliver it to my new home.

    I called and was assured it was coming. They never delivered it on May 28 and when I called was told it was still in Massachusetts due to a scheduling error, and they would expedite it to me. That Massachusetts supplier charged me for two months storage for their Error. I had paid movers who help me move. I am disabled and really counted on movers. I lost all the money I paid the movers and it wasn't cheap. I was without my furniture and other belongings until June 11th. Imagine being in your new home and it's practically vacant, no furniture, ordering out and going to restaurants to feed yourself, and much more. That's two weeks we should have been enjoying Florida wasted by PODS.

    We are being charged two monthly rental fees by the Pods Storage company which made the redelivery error for 6/4-7/3. They charged us for the prior month and now they are charging us again for their error scheduling issue so it's not really compensation when taken into consideration. We also have a charge for the cancelled container which wasn't to be delivered and this is after I called and customer service twice which promised me this cancelled container would not be delivered.

    The payments withdrawn for our credit card has reached over $4500 which is almost a thousand dollars more than the original quoted price. We hadn't even received our Pod before all these charges. It appears everyone is having a field day with charges to our card, and we are waiting for the next pods supplier to charge us more. I'm waiting for the Pods facility in the location in Florida to begin their turn charging us for monthly storage charges due to the delivery mistakes.

    I tried to resolve this before we have to shut off our credit card. It would have been nice if we could have resolved the extra charges to return to the originally agreed price for their error in scheduling, the late delivery, the money we lost paying for movers who were here to unload the originally agreed upon 5/28 redelivery date, the charges for the errors dropping off the cancelled 2nd pod plus storage charges for that pod from the Franklin MA facility. They offered me a paltry sum for compensation which still left me paying for their mistakes. I did my best to resolve these issues with PODS and finally I had to give up.

    I got a pod for storing, shipping, and re-storing our goods across country. PODS was selected because the owner preferred a national grant over some of the other lesser-known national shipping companies. The booking process was straightforward. It was very easy for me to correct and very easy to track. We received two sets of pods. The first one seemed to be of a newer style and was up to date. There wasn't any debris. There was damage inside, but it wasn't anything that would affect our move. The second pod seemed to be an older style. The damage prevented us from using most of the hooking points, but we were able to adapt. In terms of the cleanliness, it was very fine. There were no smells and water damage.

    For both locations, the driver was very communicative. He pointed out the issues he had, if any, when they came. I wasn't here for the delivery at this location, but my understanding was there were issues when the pod was received. They took prep of the site. So, they worked with us and they were very efficient. Overall, they were very professional.

    Complete failure of customer service. Pods is fine if you are simply picking up a unit or storing it. But Pods customer service. Even the simplest matters go through an almost unworkable phone/message system. I spent hours arranging and scheduling a simple visit to the facility to retrieve items—and the place was locked up with no one there to help. Waited an hour and a half and made multiple calls to every phone number Pods lists. Two hours later received a call back during which Pods admitted their mistake. Pods “customer support” couldn’t care less. Very disappointing.

    Do not trust this company with an interstate or cross-country move. I had a 16-foot container booked and fully confirmed for a major relocation. On the exact morning of my move—with my entire life packed into boxes and a hard deadline to vacate my home—PODS unilaterally canceled my service. Their customer service team offered zero immediate solutions or replacement containers, leaving me completely stranded. Because of their same-day failure to perform, I was forced to scramble and pay thousands of dollars in inflated, last-minute premiums for emergency alternative truck rentals, labor, and lodging.

    A same-day cancellation for a cross-country move causes extreme, undue logistical and financial hardship. PODS showed a complete lack of accountability for the emergency they created.

    If I could give 0 stars, I would. Booked my PODS on 22 April 2026. Prepared for it to arrive July 3rd. My arrival window changed about 6 times during the day, only once did I receive an email, no texts. I was stalking MyPODS profile and kept seeing different times in there. Middle of the day during the last changed delivery window, all of a sudden it went from delivery to rescheduled a week out. I immediately called PODS, who apologized saying someone called out sick at my local site and that's why I got bumped. They escalated things and got me on the schedule for June 4th, the following day. I don't believe for one bit someone called out, but whatever. I woke up to an email sent at 7 am with a delivery window of 545 - 845 pm which had me dying inside. I knew they didn't work that late and was NOT expecting my PODS to arrive on the 4th either. Anyways I sat around all day waiting.

    Around 8pm, the status switched to DELIVERED online, with no alert email or text notification, I was just stalking MyPODS account for updates. I called customer service again, they escalate me to a supervisor who tries more than once to reach the Ludlow, MA facility with no luck. I ask her to have the supervisor at this location call me tomorrow, she says she cannot. OK cool, that's ridiculous. Told her whatever system she's documenting all this in since they can't call me, to let them know I'll be driving to the facility to talk with someone tomorrow if I don't have a call by 830 am. So while I am on the phone with customer service, they reschedule my PODS drop off to 20 days from now. 20 days!

    June 5th at 8 am, I called again. Customer service again tried to reach the Ludlow, MA facility with no luck. I called back around 930 am. Customer service again could NOT reach the Ludlow, MA facility. She informed me that they were trying to escalate things and get an earlier dropoff. At this point, I told her I am NOT interested in dealing with the Ludlow, MA location any more and would prefer if Manchester, NH could take my account. She then informed me Bristol, CT has a location too. I informed her that is closer than NH. She checked and they do have options available in 5 days, and is trying to figure out if she can in fact transfer my account to that location so I can completely avoid any interactions with the Ludlow, MA Facility.

    This is wrong. I've never experienced such terrible customer service in my life. My PODS should have been here 3 days ago now, and I am currently waiting another 20 days for delivery, with no guarantee anyone will show up on that day, nor does it even work. We will physically be relocated before that timeframe. Something needs to happen, because no showing and not communicating 2 days in a row is terrible customer service. Do better PODS Ludlow, MA.

I kept changing it four times with no issues. That was very handy. Also, both of the drivers were perfect. They were very nice and professional. Everything went well. I had a question, but I went back and looked at the online contract. I was surprised that there was a $57 pickup fee. But I saw that PODS gave me a discount. Because normally, it was double that.

    Had an outstanding experience with PODS. You hear so many horror stories about dishonest or incompetent interstate moving companies, so it was comforting to have a significant measure of control over the entire process. Plus, they're much more affordable than hiring a moving company. The online scheduling portal made it easy to have deliveries and pickups tailored to my moving needs. The drivers were personable and informative, and customer service reps were just a quick phone call away if there were any issues that needed clarifying.

    Easy to contact, because I was always calling PODS on the phone for customer service. Excellent to navigate website. Most of the drivers are experienced, friendly and helpful. We had 5 PODS that they stored, so it was a big move. It would have been very expensive, but thankfully being an executive member of COSTCO helped keep the price down. My only complaint would be that there was not always availability to schedule PODS service when I wanted it scheduled, so I had to really strategize the schedule to make sure I didn't incur extra charges through changes or monthly storage fees.

    PODS met and exceeded expectations and was very helpful every step of the way. Would definitely use again and highly recommend. Only issues were cost as I had to get a large unit for a X country move per company and once my credit card stalled out from so many moving charges and within 18 hours I was in “collections” with PODS and almost lost my place in travel line and delivery and such. Many calls to rectify. Otherwise exceptional!

    We had a very complicated move that required us to move out of our house sooner than expected into an airbnb, and then across the country to our final destination. Pods made this great as they shipped the pod to the facility near our new location in Fort Collins, CO well ahead of time and were able to deliver the pod the day we were moving in. The cost was affordable for a cross country move and our items arrived with minimal damage (cost us very little to repair, and was just a risk of how things were packed).

    I used PODS for a transborder move from Boulder, CO to North York, Ontario. The Longmont team was exceptional. No issues at all - drivers were prompt and knew exactly what to do with unload and pickup. Albeit I do see that PODS is really intended for self load at a house now. The cross-border team was also really good in preparing me for clearing customs. We also used the storage capability in Mississauga. Since PODS has this capability, this alone made it worthwhile, and why I'm giving a favorable review. The team members in Mississauga are also exceptional and were very good with communications.

    The Toronto drivers are where things fell really short. I ended up using a city service for one of the PODS. The driver called me at 7am (where I was lucky to already be awake) in the morning and asked if I had the afternoon window when I had scheduled the early window with the scheduling team. This isn't the type of thing one wants to hear on delivery day (particularly when having to coordinate elevator usage and labor unloading movers). Guy also barely spoke English - and I'm pretty sure he wasn't French bilingual either.

    In retrospect, if I knew I was moving to a condo I would have utilized the unload capability at Mississauga at the outset. This ended up being much more efficient and easy to schedule than City service. It would be good to have PODS operators make this option clear as the first person that helped me with the first POD did not mention it - they only mentioned City Service.

The price was a little more than what I thought I was going to pay, but I know gas prices and it was a long haul. Apart from that, the pickup and delivery drivers were very good.

    I had an empty pod delivered to Maryland. I had it stored a week or two, had it delivered to Texas then I had it picked up. I was driving cross-country and I wouldn't get here before the pod could get here. Because of HOA rules, there are a limited number of days that you're allowed to have a pod in your driveway so I had to have it stored first. I started out the process with PODS online then I got on the phone to firm up all the details. I got on the phone again to revise the pickup date because I needed a few more days to load it.

    I had to keep the pod an extra three days and that was okay on my end, but it shifted the delivery for seven days. I went an extra week without any of my stuff. I don't know how their logistics work and I know it's really complicated - computers, AI and people trying to work at the same time. But there is good software for that. To have a three-day delay on one end cause a seven-day delay on the other end is little troublesome for me. Also, even with the 30% discount, it was way too expensive. I feel like I made a mistake.

    Additionally, the movers didn't strap the load down. They didn't use good ratchet straps. They didn't know what they were doing. The whole load had shifted towards the back. I already had problems with the lock on the back when it was full even though everything was pushed forward. The door and the latches would never line up. We ended up pushing and pulling. I had to get my neighbor to help me. When the guy came to pick up the full pod, I'm so thankful I was there because he needed to move the lock from the left to the right because the way the latches were messed up. That was leaving Maryland.

    Because the movers didn't strap it in very well, the whole load shifted towards the door. I had these two plastic sawhorses that were at the right height that got caught in in one of the louvers. There was no way the door would open. Thank God the guy that brought the pod knew what he was doing. He seemed like a very experienced gentleman. He was able to tilt the pod up as high as it went. Even then, he had to get it a little bit open and push the sawhorse a little bit and push and pull it a little bit more. I didn't know he was going to be able to do it but I had great confidence in him. In fact, I made sure he got a nice tip too because I don't know what I would have done. He was awesome.

The drivers were all personable and I didn't have any issues at all with any of them. They were all a good group of people. When they got down here, there was a tree limb in the way. So, I had to sign a waiver. I didn't have any place else to go with the pod. I just told them to do what they had to do. If it broke, then I'd handle it. So that's basically what happened.

    DO NOT EXPECT PODS TO TREAT ITS CUSTOMERS FAIRLY. We ordered an 8' x 8' POD to temporarily hold furniture while we were refinishing the floors in our home. We had the required space in our backyard. However, when the delivery showed up on April 1, the driver was unable to get the correct angle to drop off the POD in the yard, and instead left it in the alley behind our home. Because we did not have city approval to keep the POD there, we were unable to use it and called on April 3 to have the POD picked up.

    A POD driver picked it up on April 6. The charge for this was $470.16. A POD representative stated on May 14 that PODS would refund the monthly charge ($182.10), which was some consolation, but it is now June 1 and they are refusing to do even that. We just want everyone to be cautious when dealing with this company and know that they do not treat their customers with fairness and common sense.

    The driver in Honolulu called us ahead of time. And we talked about how it was gonna work ‘cause it was a multiple parking lot, multiple cars. So, we worked all that out. We knew exactly when he was gonna get there. It was good. It was a little different on the receiving end. When they picked up the empty pod here, we didn't get a call ahead of time. And we didn't get a text ahead of time the night before. So, there were some communication issues in the Colorado Springs side of things. But everything went smoothly.

    UPDATE June 2026: PODS resolved my complaint fully and provided fair compensation. The Customer Advocacy team investigated my concerns thoroughly, acknowledged their errors including the scheduling failure and billing discrepancy, and made it right. I appreciate PODS taking responsibility and resolving this matter fairly.

    Original Review: May 28, 2026

    I booked a 16ft PODS container to move from Florida to Austin, TX and clearly specified May 29th as my final delivery date. PODS completed the pickup from FL without any issues, but completely failed to schedule the final delivery to TX on their end. I only found out when I called customer service the day before my arrival. They told me the next available delivery date is June 8th — 10 days late. My family of 4, including 2 young kids, is arriving in Austin on May 29th with no furniture, no household items, and nowhere to turn. My spouse has to report to work on June 1st.

    I have called PODS multiple times and all they do is create tickets. I now have two open tickets (#** and #**) and zero resolution. The warehouse manager number they gave me doesn't even connect — it has calling restrictions. Front-line reps openly admit they cannot do anything beyond creating tickets. This is a complete failure of service. PODS made the scheduling error, not me. Yet my family is the one suffering the consequences. I would strongly warn anyone planning a move — especially with a family and a hard deadline — to think twice before trusting PODS with your move.

    I didn't want to have to deal with U-Haul and going up and down the ramp, and I liked PODS because it was right there on the ground. I booked the 16-foot pod by phone and everybody was very nice. I got a lot of stuff, so I could probably use three of them but they fit my needs. The drivers were good, whether it was the pickup or the drop-off. We had nothing that moved, was out of place, or broken. Everything was just how we put it in there. We had kind of a tight situation on where to put the pod, and they moved it no matter how many times. They had to wiggle it around to get it where we wanted it, and never complained about it. I've had quite a few people ask me if PODS was fairly reasonable and it was, because it made my move easier. There was no doubt. PODS was cheaper than I had planned it to be, so I was thrilled with that. It was a great experience. I would do it again if I had to move.

    DO NOT USE PODS. This has been one of the most frustrating customer service experiences we have ever had. Our POD was supposed to be delivered yesterday. We received repeated delivery updates promising arrival by 4 PM, then 5 PM, then 6 PM, then 7 PM, then 8 PM, then 9 PM, and even 10:15 PM. Each time we called, we were told it was still coming.

    Near MIDNIGHT, after spending the entire day waiting and rearranging our lives, a representative finally told us the driver was not even allowed by law to deliver after 7 PM. Then why were we repeatedly being given delivery times well past 7 PM in emails and by customer service?? They rescheduled us for today. Now we’ve received ANOTHER delay notification pushing delivery back again.

    We have to be completely moved out by Friday. Because PODS has failed to deliver as promised, we cannot schedule movers, cannot finalize our move, and are now losing valuable time and incurring additional costs. What’s worse is the complete lack of accountability. No one helps. No one gives accurate information. No one offers real solutions. We are simply left at their mercy while our move falls apart. If PODS misses your delivery, apparently that becomes YOUR problem—not theirs. Save yourself the stress, wasted time, and extra expense. DO NOT USE PODS.

    We used Pods for storage while we painted our house. They were a little harder to get to. You have to email them or call them. But generally, I got a good response from them. No problems in picking it up, except it looks like they ran a little bit across my yard, my grass. And I didn't tell them that. It wasn't a problem, but I just noticed that. Because when they delivered it, we have a circular driveway, which isn't paved off the street, that doesn't have a curb and gutter. It was a little harder, probably to get it in, but they did it, and it was in the right place, where I needed it. I was very happy with my experience. There was a lot of rain. I was worried, but it never got any rain in it, which was good.

    PODS seemed convenient and the price was competitive. It wasn't off by much, not enough to make me choose somebody else. When I booked the 16-foot pod over the phone, the interaction with the rep was fine. But on the day of the pickup, they changed my pick-up time four times and without any prior notification. Only an email saying my time has changed. When you're moving, you have more than one thing going on. So, it occupied a lot of my time. That was not well planned on their part. Things happen, but there needs to be a mechanism that's better than that.

    I called that morning after the second change, and I spoke to a supervisor. That lady needs to be completely in a different line of business, because the first thing you do when a customer is complaining is apologize for the inconvenience they’re having, and then guarantee you’re going to try to resolve the situation as best as possible right now, and she didn’t do either. It ended up being good because the people who followed afterwards were good people.

    The actual delivery of the pod to my new house was fine. But the driver who initially delivered it needs some training on customer service. He came in there with a very bad attitude. I specifically told the representative how I wanted it with the door facing the garage and in the center of the driveway. When the delivery guy got there, he asked where I wanted it and I said I had specified. He said it was completely opposite of what he had. I told him that I clearly explained how I wanted it and it's his job to put it where I want it. I even had to remind him to settle down and that he needs to remember that I'm the customer here. They need to train that guy on how to do his job. He set a very bad example for PODS. But the other two people who came to deliver the pod were great.

    I was done with it almost immediately and I called PODS to ask if they could get it sooner. The customer service rep who handled that call told me upfront that I’m getting put on a wait list. And if they can get to me sooner, then they will. If they can’t, then I have to wait a week with a pod in front of my house, which the HOA frowns upon. But the two gentlemen who came to pick it up were outstanding.

    I'm a retired military guy, and I moved 20 times in my life. And I've done a lot of those moves myself. In other times, I've hired people to do them. So, I have a good background on how a good move should be. PODS didn't start well, but it ended up very well for me. Overall, the experience was fine but with glitches. If you're fortunate to get everything to go right, then you're gonna have a good overall experience.

    I called up PODS, talked to somebody on the phone, and then they communicated by email. They let you know everything upfront. They charge you in stages. It was just nice to do business with a smart company. The same man dropped off the pod and picked it up here in Birmingham. He was very pleasant and knowledgeable. I live on an incline in Birmingham, and they made it clear that they couldn't deliver past a certain incline. He looked up the alley in the back of my house and in the front of the house to decide where the pod could go, and he placed it seamlessly. I had to change a pick-up time, and it was all done online.

    When I got to my sister's house out in Texas, the container came a couple of days later because it was Memorial Day weekend. They didn't deliver over the holiday, which was no big deal. The guy out in Texas was really nice and he delivered it. My sister was just dreading this. But it was just so nice. She couldn't believe it either.

    Whether you want a long-term storage or to move something across country, just do it yourself. It's just so much better than renting a U-Haul rental truck with the price of fuel and driving 800 miles. PODS has a machine that they take the pods off the truck, and the whole thing is just so smart. It looks like something from Star Wars coming in and doing the delivery. It was just interesting to watch.

    PODS is a terrific company. It's such a great idea, what they do, and it's so convenient for the consumer. Compared to the cost of moving, which I've moved a couple of kids out of college in the last five years, it's so cost-efficient too. I've moved things out there before with moving companies 15 years ago. The cost was more to move a couple of twin beds and bedside table and some lamps with the moving company on a small partial load than it was to load up two or three times the stuff in my yard or my driveway over a couple of days with PODS and then they just ship it out and just deliver it. The whole thing is just seamless.

    Provided detailed delivery instructions and both homeowners were present for POD container delivery. The delivery driver refused to park the container in the requested location (a previous RV/boat parking spot) claiming that the wheels of their delivery machine could not operate on grass. Pictures were obtained while 2 of 4 wheels operated on the grass of the aforementioned spot in order to navigate the driveway.

    The requested container location has concrete gravel beneath a shallow grass area and is flat and level. A large boat and trailer were parked there for years without any sinking or issues with small dolly wheels. There was no risk to the company's equipment in this request. At the time of delivery the homeowners were very clear that the POD container could not impede access to the driveway for an upcoming construction project and the delivery driver refused to offer any solution.

    Per the signed rental agreement section 14. Placement of Unit (c) At Customer's request, company may access or operate on a lawn, unpaved surface, or other non-reinforced area of Customer's premises. According to customer service this specific PODS facility has "their own rule that they will not deliver a container to even be 1-2ft over grass". They attempted to schedule additional services at additional charges for repositioning, without confirming that this PODS location would perform the requested alteration. Upon inquiry the manager refused. This is an example of false advertising and predatory billing practices. They offered no resolution or refund. If you search online there are hundreds of similar reports.

    My son loved PODS and he recommended it. So, we gave it a shot and glad we did. The first time I reached out to them, I called and then I did the rest of everything online. The drivers who picked up and moved and dropped off the containers were great. My son said, "Make sure you pack it in real well because of rocking and this and that." I watched them go over a few big bumps and this and that and I was scared to open it up. When I opened it, not a thing had moved. So, it was great. I would tell others to give PODS a shot because it's well worth it. They give you time to load it up and time to take it off instead of hurrying and doing it all in one day. The only thing is the price was cheaper in the beginning, and then, all of a sudden, it went up.

And we stored a bunch. The pod was clean. And it was sturdy enough for what we had. Then they asked us to leave it clean, so we left it very clean when it was time for them to come and pick it up. Then once we closed on our house, we had it moved to the new house. Then, when we emptied it out, they came and picked it up. It was pretty simple. The drop-off was great. The drivers were very nice. They did it quickly because we were in a neighborhood, and moved to a neighborhood. It was a big old truck that they delivered it in. And they did it very timely. The way they did the money was just exactly the way they said it would be. And when they get within 15 minutes of your house, they call and tell you where they are.

    I needed a long-distance move of smaller items and PODS could get a smaller container. I could pack it myself and it was easier than driving stuff out myself in a truck. So that's what I did. Booking the pod was very easy. The customer service agent listened to my needs and hooked me up with the service and the dates that I needed very nicely. I was a Costco member, so the customer service rep was able to work with me on the pricing. So, I was very satisfied with the booking.

    I got the 8 x 12 pod, which is the smallest one and it got delivered to my new location exactly when it was supposed to. All I had to do was unload it when I got there. It arrived in good condition, and it was clean and the door was fine. It was perfect. But I never want to do a move again. I'm not a young person and it was still hard moving all my stuff in and out of the pod. But once I got there, that was hard too. I probably don't want to do it again because I had to do all that lifting myself. I could have hired somebody to do that.

    Price-wise, the price was more than I wanted to spend. But when I took into consideration the price of a long-distance move and my own driving, my own wear and tear on my vehicle, and paying for a hotel along the way, it seemed to be reasonable. PODS is an option if you have stuff you need to move or store. I have remodeled my own home in the past and I'm thinking the pod would have been a nice thing to have to put all your stuff while you're remodeling. I did not have that luxury back then. So, it's a good option because you have control of what's in it and how you can get in it. I understand that if you're not moving, PODS will store it at a facility nearby where you live and you can get access to it anytime also. So that's nice too.

    The promptness of the delivery surprised me because I was wondering if the team was going to show up on time, take it on the day they said, and deliver it on the day they promised. But that all worked out very well. I had a bunch of stuff to move that was spread all over my house and another house and I got it all into the pod. Once it was taken away, I had all of that off my plate. It was out of my house and on its way. When it arrived, I was happy to have it, and that was very good. Right away, I knew this was going to be okay. The PODS team sent lots of communication through emails, texts, and calls. If anything needed to be changed, I got the impression that it was not a problem. I could just send a text or make a call, and they would take care of it. The drivers were very considerate and nice people. They took very good care of both driveways and landscaping and didn't destroy anything that I had on my outdoor property.

    After booking the delivery of my long-distance container more than a month prior, the company unilaterally cancelled the order on the evening previous to my delivery, leaving me with an already packed house and no move, after charging almost the whole total amount to my credit card. Without proper notice, just a random call from an unidentified person, citing untrue claims that there is not possible to maneuver the delivery vehicle into either of my 2 driveways, in a broad street with a median, where even huge trucks download goods for businesses nearby.

    A next-door neighbor used them before, so they did operate in the area, which proves that the claim was not true. No driver came and physically checked the area as they claimed either. PODS had more than a month to evaluate whether the delivery was possible or not at my address and notify me with enough time to start looking for another options. The alternative offered was for me to bring my stuff to their place. Really??? Absolutely awful customer service. They jeopardized the timing of my move and added a terrible experience to an already stressful situation.

    Lost my home in the fires. Needed storage to keep supplies dry while I rebuild my new home. The POD leaked and all my remaining stuff that I own is now destroyed, again. POD gave an immediate rejection of my claim with no data. After I reviewed on Yelp, they reached back at out to try to appease, but continued to do nothing. The storage box leaks - I watched it with my own eyes. PODS claims to have leak tested (within a couple hours of picking it up). They simply lie and do not stand behind their products.

    Their call centers are not local, and they don't know where you are actually located when they talk to you. Save yourself time, money, and anger by going with any other company. This one is a big biz cesspool. They'll most likely respond immediately to this, so that you all don't learn just how bad they really are at responding to customers once they have your money.

He refused to contact other drivers to see if they would deliver the pod. He refused to contact his supervisor indicating that his supervisor didn't take phone calls. He refused to contact the warehouse to see what other arrangements could be made. He refused to explain why other customers would get their deliveries before mine.

    I explained that my wife was undergoing a very serious surgery and that I detrimentally relied on Pods promise to deliver the pod on May 16th. That I needed the time to clear a space in the house to make room for a medical grade bed and other medical equipment. That unless Pods was willing to make the situation right that Pods was interfering with other scheduled deliveries and was in fact interfering with my ability to prepare the house for my wife's difficult recovery.

They came, picked up the pod right on schedule, dropped it off in front of my house on the street, held it for me, then returned it and picked it up within 24 hours after it was emptied. So, I have no complaints. The pod was sturdy, clean, and big enough. It was a size 12 and it held everything I needed it to hold. The driver who dropped it off was very nice and told me how much room he needed. It was a pretty quick process. Also, the PODS website explained everything and I got a lot of updates, so that was helpful. I had the pod for about six months. It went sometime in October then I had it redelivered in April.

    This is the second time that I've used PODS and they were a little late in picking up the pod, but that was okay. They were busy. I did most of my transactions online and I like that, but I like to talk to a live person sometimes. When I was trying to get them to pick up the pod, I couldn't get ahold of a live person and that was a negative for me. The first time that I used them, the service was just right on the money. But this time, it was 3 three days when I notified them to pick it up that they were able to get it. Other than that, the person who picked up the pod was very nice and I was amazed that he could back that thing up the way he did. It was interesting. I will use them again.

    I needed temporary storage and I heard about PODS on television. Booking was easy and the lady was fantastic in terms of quality of service. I went with the 16-foot container because it was the largest size available. It was clean and the doors worked. I did not find PODS to be price-competitive and that determined how long I kept it. I had the pod for about six weeks. I changed the plan because the pod was about twice what it would cost me for self-storage. So, I had my content storage transferred to a self-storage unit. I am waiting for a refund because I cut the service short. Other than the price, everything was excellent.

    I used PODS for a long-distance move and, while the moving/storage service itself was generally acceptable, my experience with the post-delivery property damage claim process has been extremely disappointing. (The Leetsdale PA office was the local facility that handled the PA portions of my PODS move.) During delivery and pickup, damage occurred to my property, including lawn and driveway/asphalt edge damage. Since reporting the issue, the primary challenge has not been a disagreement over dollar amounts, but rather the handling of the claim itself.

    The process has involved long communication gaps, repeated follow-ups, incomplete consideration of documented damages, and inconsistent responses between the various parties involved in the claim process. Despite providing photos, contractor estimates, and supporting documentation, the matter has remained unresolved for an extended period of time with little proactive communication.

    What has been most frustrating is the apparent lack of accountability and coordination between PODS, the third-party administrators, and the adjusters handling the file. Communication often resumed only after escalations or external complaints were filed. I understand that claims investigations take time, and I have tried to remain patient and professional throughout the process. However, customers should not have to repeatedly chase updates or struggle to obtain clear answers regarding the status and scope of their claim. Based on my experience, I would strongly encourage anyone using PODS to carefully document delivery conditions and understand that, if property damage occurs, the claims handling experience may be significantly more difficult than expected.

    When we unloaded the pod, the boxes at the end were soaking wet. The items in the boxes were covered with mold. I filed a complaint, but was told their investigation was unable to identify any physical damage or defect to the PODS container that would support liability for the reported water intrusion or resulting damages. Very disappointing that they do not stand behind their product.

    The PODS service was excellent. 1 million thank yous to Charles - he drove on two legs of our journey (to and from the PODS storage facility). He made the move so easy, and was just great to work with. We had to reschedule multiple times, and the app made it easy to do that, along with text reminders to alert us a few days before each scheduled pickup or drop off. The PODS guidelines for packing were great, so nothing was damaged in the move (love those ratcheting tie-downs). If you use their storage facilities, be aware that some but not all are climate controlled. Lastly, we also considered other companies, but their containers were very flimsy by comparison.

    We needed extended storage for our move, so we went with Pods. We got the pod in February and turned it in in April. Communication was easy because they said they did exactly what they said. They would let us know when it was going to be delivered and when it was going to be picked up. However, there were problems with everything with this order. Initially, we tried to book a 22-footer and we were told that we would get one, but the driver delivered a 16-footer, dropped it and left. We had equipment damaged inside as well. Our freezer and the trailer I pulled with my trike were damaged. I would not recommend Pods to anybody. There was no email saying, "If there's ever a problem, then you submit a claim this way."

    We hired people to pack too. The two guys showed up two hours late and worked for about 45 minutes to finish what my wife already had loaded up, and then did their own review, and wanted cash to finish moving things out of the house that we weren't taking with us because we didn't have the room. It was a totally crappy experience and I would tell people not to do it, to run a U-Haul and get a storage. That way, they can make sure that their personal goods aren't destroyed or damaged.

    My experience with PODS so far has been great, but I'm not done with them yet. I got two pods from them. I requested a 16-footer and an eight-footer. One went fantastically. The other one is still in storage. I used PODS because it was feasible for my application, where I had to store the deceased family's belongings until we distribute them throughout the family. The drivers were fantastic. They were pleasant. They came in the dropping off of a pod and the picking up of the pod. Everything went well. We opened the smaller pod, and everything was intact. Everything was secured in there. They have a reasonable price as well. It was a very pleasant experience.

    PODS’ price was the reason why we went with them, and the reps who set me up were great. I got the 16-foot container because the 12-footer was more expensive. The first driver who dropped off the first pod had a malfunction with the lock. After pounding on it with a pipe, he finally told us to just use a hammer and pound it if we can't open it. I called PODS and told them I am not pounding on their pod and I can't lock it. So the guys exchanged it out. We still have our pod, even though it says they picked up one, and the problem is that they charged us for two deliveries. The guy said it had been credited to our account. I'm hoping I'm not going to have it for more than a month. If I do, then it's already paid for. We'll see how it goes when it all washes out and how quick the refund comes.

    The process with PODS was easy and they were great about finding a place to put the container, even when the guy said he couldn’t do the two places I chose. The pod just sits in the street and we were concerned about all the rain possibilities. But it hasn't rained, so it hasn't been challenged with the flooding yet. So, it's been good so far.

    My booking experience with Pods was great. The associate was awesome. He helped me with all my needs right away. There were no issues with anything on it. He told me the pricing and helped me with booking everything.

    I also used their app a little bit, which was pretty good. It's very self-explanatory how to navigate in it. It's not really anything majorly confusing. Even an older person would be all right with using it because I don't think they would have a problem figuring out what to do.

    Both drivers, drop-off and pickup, were awesome guys. On the ball, doing their thing. They were really professional. The system is just great, the way that it did it. Something you don't see all the time. It was a great experience to watch.

    The only thing that PODS needs to do more of is to try to find out the laws in the different cities. I didn't know that I couldn't have a pod on my street. That's not PODS's fault. It's probably my fault also for not checking and not knowing that we would need a permit in my area to put a pod in the street. If I had known that, I probably wouldn't have put it in the street. I probably would have put it on my lawn just to save headaches from city municipalities.

    The absolute worst customer service I've ever received! Booked a POD delivery one week ago and I was scheduled to have it dropped off today (Thursday). Late morning, on Thursday, I received a phone call from PODs that they were not able to deliver it today. I told the POD representative that I had movers coming on Friday morning (8am-9am) and we had to be out of our sold home first thing Saturday morning. They told me they could have it to me by Friday morning. I went to PODs online at 4:00pm Thursday and it said it wasn't going to arrive until between 3pm-6pm on Friday. So I immediately called PODs and escalated my call to a manager.

    The manager "Rachel 0447" was the most unhelpful person I have ever spoke to. She told me she couldn't do anything to get my POD to me by Friday morning. I asked if I could have the phone number to the West Palm Beach FL facility and she told me that it was an internal use phone number only. So I asked her to call and see if she could get some clarification on our delivery time. She told me no she couldn't and even if she could it would not change anything. My question is why have an internal phone number that can't be used to help a customer who has a problem with their delivery by no fault of their own. I asked several times to speak to her supervisor and she told me she was the highest supervisor and wouldn't transfer me to someone else. So PODS absolutely screwed me and now I'm scrambling to find an alternate solution.

    The phone call with PODS was good. However, either I misunderstood what was going to happen or it was not conveyed properly. My understanding was they were going to pick it up and send it right down to our new home. Instead, what happened was it went to a distribution facility nearby, and then I had to select to move it. That was not what I understood at all. It was not what I heard on the phone. Because I know that they also record their conversations, I asked for the recording because maybe I did misunderstand. That was the only part of the whole experience with PODS that was very frustrating. Everything else was great. The people who dropped off the pod were great, skilled, did whatever, where we asked them to put it in everything. When they picked it up, it was the same thing.

    Punctuality & Speed

    Everything from delivery to pick up was easy, fast and seamless. When I had to push back the pick up date, it was an easy process to do online. Scheduling the pick up was easy as well. Highly recommend.

    Ease of Use

    Reviewed May 5, 2026

    Overall experience was quite good. My only issue was that the door was very difficult to open. This made it difficult to use, but it worked for my needs which was a total garage rework after a water issue.
