PODS was always punctual and efficient. They even called me 15 min before pickup and delivery. They recommended excellent packers that used every square inch of space in the POD so that a 2 bedroom apartment fit easily into one POD.

The Albuquerque PODS is very professional and really tried to take care of us. They were on time and called ahead. When I needed to visit the POD, they were very accommodating. Corporate PODS was not as good and gave us conflicting info and were late delivering our POD and did not have a clue as to where it was. We choose PODS because they have a good reputation and even with the problems, they were the best economical choice.

I decided to use PODS because I needed schedule flexibility in my move, both in the packing and unpacking. I got an 8x8x16 container, which comfortably fit my two-bedroom quantity of stuff. The POD arrived clean and on schedule. Packing the pod was straight-forward. During the move, there was some slippage within the container. The slippage would probably have been prevented if straps were laid across each 4 ft space, rather than just at the end. When delivering the POD for delivery, the driver had some difficulty navigating the apartment complex (other large trucks were blocking traffic), but he called me and we navigated the turns. If I needed another large container, I would likely go with PODS again.

PODS was expensive considering we also had to pay people to load and unload, but it was the best solution for us since our move had a few stops and took place over several months.

PODS is great, fast delivery and fast pick-up, and move at your own pace. This is way better than renting a truck and killing yourself rushing everything because you are paying mileage, time & gas.

Horrible customer service. Corporate office does not communicate with local offices efficiently. Local office was so completely unprofessional. I was schedule 6 yes, 6 times and finally I had to hire a truck and empty the POD myself and drive it to my new home. When I initially mentioned this idea to "Tom" the manager of the Hartford, CT office - HE HAD THE AUDACITY TO SAY THATS A GOOD IDEA and proceeded to hang up on me. I'm disgusted by the mistreatment of myself and my family. When it came time to retrieve the empty container, it was scheduled for one day and then ONE WEEK later after repeated phone calls and frustration that the container was finally picked up. I will NEVER EVER recommend PODS to anyone I know and I will continue to bad mouth them for as long as it takes to get some compensation for my aggravation.

Confirmation emails do not parse the POD pickup/drop off times correctly so both confirmation emails did not list ANY times. I had to either call in or wait for the IVR to call me. PODS tried to pickup my POD 4 hours earlier than what was quoted the day before, leading to some frantic last minute packing which resulted in improperly packed items that were damaged.

showed up on time to pick up pod. I was not able to get a time for the delivery to the new location as promised (day before) on either the web site or via phone. I didn't find out until the morning of the delivery. I had to move time for unloading crew back a day.

Pods was very difficult to work with. On line ordering is not intuative. They dropped the box backwards with door against a fence. It took an act of g... To get them to turn it around. On top of which they wanted to charge me.

We have PODS in NJ so we checked on-line. The person we booked with was extremely pleasant and helpful, answering all of our many questions as we had no clue what we needed. The gentlemen who dropped it off was very pleasant. We felt the on- line advertisement was helpful as it also included companies to call for help with the packing and loading of the POD. Of the three companies listed Hired Helpers was the most pleasant and helpful on the phone, that is why we chose them. All and all the experience was made much easier because of POD,HIRED HELPERS & INCREDIBLE GIANTS

All went well until the guy picking up the empty PODS backed over my sprinkler head(despite me have a fairly large rock next to it; his front passenger tire just climbed up the rock and crumpled the head). That would not have been so bad but, the driver may have been at a party the night before that lasted into the night. I would probably recommend PODS because 95% of the move went well.

Pods was a decent 2nd choice with full service unavailable. Rates good, especially for storage. Customer service for out of state move a pain in the butt Billing confusing for multiple containers, each one separated and prices varied btw containers for some reason No contact with local operations that actually touch the customer, had to work through 800 number only.
