Other than a small hitch when the POD was delivered at the origination point they did an excellent. I received confirmation of the delivery and pick up times. I was given a window each time and then a call from the driver when they were close to the destination. The items in the POD arrived in good condition. I have no complaints and would recommend them.

We are renting a POD for a month. Costing us about $500 for the big one, it's well worth it for us as we have two weeks before we can get in our new place. It only holds most of our furniture so if doing a whole house you'll need more than one for sure. The two men that we've had interaction with when dropping off and picking up our pod so far have been incredibly nice! Would use pods again but hopefully we won't be moving again soon :)

PODS is excellent for moves. I moved from San Francisco, CA to Boston, MA and everything arrived on time and as expected, all of my things intact. Customer Service is incredible and puts the customer first. A great alternative to other moving companies and also offers storage in the POD.

On time, positioned just were we wanted it. My only complaint is that I received four different prices for the same thing by four different phone operators. I think they should make their pricing easier to calculate (especially when giving a discount) and their invoice as well.

I ordered the POD it arrived when they said it would. I changed my pickup date 3 times due to my closing on my new home being changed and the painters taking a little longer then we originally planed on. Never had a problem rescheduling etc. They picket up the POD when I asked and moved it to the new place and then picked it up on the scheduled date for pick up without a hitch.

Best way to move!!! I hired PODS to move from NJ to MA. Then I had to hire a local moving truck to move items within the PODS into the city (Boston). My local moving truck, Bell Air, did a fantastic job and I'd highly recommend them (out of Dedham, ask for Nick).

We are very pleased with all aspects of the Pods container experience. Packing ourselves gave us the flexibility we needed as we prepared for the 12 hour move. Customer service excellent and extremely helpful and accommodating when changing dates for delivery and re-delivery of containers. Would definitely recommend this service.

The price and convenience were great. The customer service was great. Down side, one of the drivers who did a pick-up was anything but gentle with the container and banged it around quite a bit. They advertise a gentle move and lift system, but make sure you heavily wrap your furniture as the system is only as good as the operator.

The PODs were a more economical way to go. However it is a bit more inconvenient when it comes to getting them placed. Plus the two I got were older and difficult to open and close.

Delivered and picked up on time from where I was moving. It did take 2 days longer to get to the city where I was moving, but since I hadn't finalized where I was going to live yet it wasn't an issue. The container was delivered to me when I needed it, where I needed it, and was picked up as scheduled. I would use PODS again.

I wish there was a larger option available. Distance from my POD was reasonable.. Container was in good condition. Customer service was excellent. Using POD for storage was easier than traditional storage containers. I only had to pay for someone to load my valuables initially, then when I was ready for my valuable I only pay to have them unloaded vs. load and unload for traditional storage containers. The company picked up there container when stated. I would use this company again.

Working with PODS was easy and convenient. I was contacted by Keith Martin in special services due to the moving restrictions in New York City. It was helpful to have a personal contact throughout the process. They worked with me to arrive during alternate side parking to maximize the chance of getting a spot right in front of my apartment building. The driver arrived early and was able to park directly in front of my building. The POD was clean and the lock and furniture blankets I ordered arrived with the POD. The only hiccup was that the rope I had ordered did not arrive and there was some miscommunication somewhere along the line, as I did not receive it in the mail as I should have -- though I did not know until the day of my move that the rope was supposed to have been shipped to me -- I was expecting it would arrive with the other supplies I ordered. The driver of the truck, Nina, was fabulous. She stood outside the container and kept an eye on all of my belongings while the POD was being loaded. Overall, it was a great experience. Hopefully the delivery of my belongings will go as smoothly as the pick-up.

This was a perfect method for us to transport our household goods. The pod was always delivered and picked up in a timely manner and the workers were always pleasant and helpful. They placed the pod in a couple of challenging locations: first on a tree-lined circular driveway and then on a fairly steep slope. The pod was clean and held much more than I had anticipated. I would recommend them to friends and use them again myself.

I had problems with customer service and their billing process earlier. They could not meet my requested date to deliver the POD despite calling 10 days in advance, theirs web site recommends 3-5 day advance notice. The day before the scheduled delivery they called to reschedule the delivery which created problems for the crew I hired to unload the pod. Fortunately they were able to schedule it for the next day without an additional charge. I had to have the pod parked on a public street and had permission to have it there for 48 hours so, I scheduled the pickup for the day after delivery. The day it was scheduled to be picked up no one arrived or called. I called the company who told that a truck broke down and they cancelled my pick up. This was on a Friday and they would not pick it up until Monday because it was empty it was a low priority. I told them it was on a street and needed to be removed right away, and they said that was not their problem. Also be aware that PODS does not prorate their billing, go one day into the next billing schedule and you will be charged for a total month. This is what happened to me despite the fact that it was their fault due to the missed delivery date!

The delivery of the pods was good. They picked it up when I wanted them too. There was a problem with the first pod, in that I had requested it to be left in the storage area until I could have it re dilivered to my condo to continue filling it. It was a misunderstanding between both the PODS operator and myself. This resulted in the POD being shipped to the final destination less than half full. I had to have another POD delivered and pay the long distance fee twice. Because of the tapes it was decided that PODS did not have to make and adjustment to the account.
