PODS® Reviews
This was the first time using pods and was recommended by our friends , who used them in the past. this is the first of two moves to n.c. This was a 16 footer,next stage will probably be a 16 footer again. Could use a 12 footer ,but they don't ship them out of state. the 7 footer will not be big enough . The pod is very nicely made, it's clean looks good and holds alot of stuff with build in tie downs to rope down your items.much cheaper than a moving company. you suppy a lock. It took 7 days to get from moriches,n.y to n.c. .every thing was secure at final destination.yes i will recommend and use them again.
They were on time and did everything they said they would. We had two PODS and both needed to be cleaned out before putting our things in them so be prepared to vacuum and wipe down the inside. We put our things in storage so I cannot tell yet if they will be returned intact but I was glad they were being stored in an indoor location.
I'm a return customer for PODS and was equally pleased with their service as I was before. The driver kept me updated on their arrival time and was very patient and friendly (I loaded my POD in Manhattan so the driver had to wait with the container). The entrance in front of my building is a no-standing zone but the driver parked there anyways so I didn't have to load my container from a block away. PODS will always be my go-to choice for cross-country moving!
They were very accommodating with dates I needed all PODs delivered and picked up. They have have very clever way of maneuvering the PODs to be placed in the most convenient location for us to load and unload. Since we packed everything ourselves we lost very little (a plate and a few glasses) due to our packing not transportation. I have to mention that a couple of things were damaged due to heat but weather was over 100 degrees probably during transporting.
So easy and so much more affordable than moving companies. Their system is very efficient and the guys I met were all super nice and quick. I only didn't meet the last guy who picked up my pod because he ran late, but I didn't need to be there anyway. I've moved a lot and this was by far my best experience!
