Had there not been an issue with cost differential from one zip code to another with miles of each other, we would have given 5 stars for PODS. The typical 800 number run around and the website is not reflective of reality of where our POD truly was.

Probably the best option for a break between escrows. Really pricey though. And, no prorated rates for less than 30 days of storage. Still, what else are you gonna do?

They've been awesome, highly recommend. Pricing was great, customer service great, containers were awesome. Only recommendation is to insure you ask what, if any, anchors are going to be inside the POD; I received older PODS that only had 6 anchors each

PODS customer service was very good. The call centre staff were knowledgeable and helpful. We had a bit of an issue trying to tie down the delivery time because of parking restrictions on our street, but all turned out well in the end. The delivery drivers were both very efficient, especially with their Godzilla device!

Delivered the pod when/where requested. Professional. I didn't really interact with them much, the pod showed up, we loaded it, and then it disappeared. I'm assuming that they did a good job. No complaints.

I used a POD to move from Pennsylvania to Florida. The container did a good job keeping the elements out. The drivers were helpful and friendly. It took 10 days for my container to arrive which included 2 weekends and Memorial Day. I think this was a little on the slow side, but all my stuff arrived the undamaged and appeared the same as I packed it which I was very pleased to see. They gave me three hour windows for both delivery and pick up and arrived towards the beginning of the window each time which was also appreciated. All in all it was a good experience.

PODS should inform the customers that some areas are only serviced sporadically. Because Clarksville area is only serviced on Tuesday and Thursday, I had to change my departure date to accommodate PODS around their schedule, not mine. Then, again because they only service Clarksville 2 days a week, the empty unit has been in my driveway for more than 10 days.

First part meaning container delivery, movers and container pick up was great. I was extremely impressed with the entire process: timely, effective, no mess. The problem occured with my container delivery to my new place. I was given wrong information about delivery requirement, then one hour into waiting for the container I was contacted by the rudest person ever telling me the delivery was rescheduled in two days which was unaccetable for me. Eventually she managed to reschedule the delivery for the following day but there was no apology for her initial behaviour. If not for her, I'd recommend PODS wholeheartedly.

PODS container worked well, although living in an aparment buidling in the city, it is difficult to find a great parking space that allows for delivery & pickup. Be sure to check how much clearance is needed for the truck.

Very happy with pods and service. Only thing I would have liked is for someone to personally come to the house an give use a better idea how many or how big the pods we needed. Had to change from a 7 ft container to a 16 ft at last minute. Thank goodness we do other wise we wouldn't have had enough room.

It was fine. This move was a bit different than most in that I was not sure of my exact move-to address and when I would be unpacking. The services worked well for my needs. I was frustrated in the limited availability for pick-up and drop-off for the PODS container. Additionally, I could not get a 3 hr delivery window until 6 pm the evening before moving day. This resulted in challenges with scheduling movers. Overall a minor inconvenience, but the container was delivered at 6am and movers arrived at 4pm. Having the ability to schedule a 3 hr window 24 hrs out or even by 3pm the day before would resolve this issue.
