Their drivers are awesome. Their customer service agents? Not so much. This was my first move into a new state to an area I was unfamiliar with. The delivery for my empty PODS was simple and efficient but the drop off with all my belongings was less than ideal. I moved from a larger apartment complex with a parking lot to a house in the city but their mechanism for unloading the PODS is so big that unless you have a huge driveway or a large parking lot nearby, I would not recommend the service. And FYI I booked their smallest POD (8x7) for a one bedroom apartment and still had spacing issues. Their customer service agents I talked with didn't always speak coherent English and didn't understand the questions I was asking about space for the PODS dropoff before I booked. So of course the driver on the delivery day didn't have enough room to use their crane contraption to lift the 8x7 PODS. Instead, I had to rent a Uhaul and pay a separate moving company to help load and unload the POD stuff into the Uhaul and then into my new apartment. Luckily nothing was damaged during the process and the PODS driver was friendly in helping me through the process. Just be aware you need a ton of space.

Using PODS was very convenient to use & pack up at your own pace. Plus you don't have to worry when re-locating. It's not inexpensive, though, nor are the monthly storage costs.

They came when they said they would and delivered my items to my locations with minimal damage. Couple of scratches on stuff (which was my faulty for not padding things better when I packed it.) I would definitely use them again if needed.

The transportation was good. My one issue was the transporters damaged a tree branch and a patch a grass, BUT, in their defense, it was a tricky location to drop off the Pod, so it was inevitable.

the cost was for each pod. Great service the delivery & pick up drivers were always good. Placed container just where I wanted. Kept up informed as to when they would arrive. The containers were clean. Only one issue when they tried to deliver a wood pod which would not work for my needs. Gave price breakdown and explained each one. Liked that they took payment as service occurred.

I completed an order with container delivery scheduled and approved. PODS simply lost the order, which they acknowledged in repeated calls and emails. But they then refused to respond to my repeated requests for help with rescheduling.

The redelivery driver did not redeliver my container on the day that we had agreed on months ahead of time, and had a nasty attitude towards me and my apartment's management team when we tried to find a solution. He ignored all of my calls and when I called his supervisor, he ignored my calls as well. I had all of my essentials inside the container, so I had to stay in a hotel with my two cats and buy new food/kitchen utensils/litterboxes until the box was delivered. I was not reimbursed for the expenses I had because of this screwup, and when contacting a supervisor, the delivery manager, and even corporate... NONE of them responded back to me even though I called multiple times and left messages. PODS did not care at all that they left a young college student stranded hundreds of miles away from home with nothing but carry-on luggage and some food that was bought from the airport. When the container finally did come, the same driver gave us attitude again and placed the box over a parking space that we told him not to place it on. The emotional and financial stress that this caused me was not worth it. Completely unsatisfied with this company, I will never use them again and will encourage all of my friends and family to avoid them at all costs.

Meh. They delivered on time, but the driver did not place the opening of the pod toward the door so we had to walk around it to load. My daughter was the only one there when he left it and he told her it couldn’t be turned, but there was plenty of room and my loading company assured me they could have turned it the correct way.

I used PODs because I needed to move stuff out of my house over a 1 month window. At both ends of their service - container drop-off and container delivery to my new location - PODS was great. From scheduling, to communication with the truck driver, to pricing - everything was easy and straightforward. And on either end I hired great movers (like Bell Movers in Maine) to do the heavy lifting and it worked out really well. We used a "moving company" several years ago to make the same move from PA to ME and it was a disaster and the complete opposite of my experience this time.

The pods arrived on time, if not early, for both pickup and dropoff, and it was convenient that I didn't have to be there when the pods were picked up. Some of my stuff got a little dusty and beaten up, but the things I took the time to carefully pack with bubble tape/ cling wrap etc were in perfect condition so I wouldn't hold that against the company but rather my care in packing up the pod.

One of my PODS arrived on time. The other never showed, with no call or text or anything. After contacting customer service multiple times, I was told they can't deliver it for 2 more weeks at the earliest. They've already had it 3 weeks, now adding 2 more weeks. It'll cost me hundreds out of pocket to hire movers a second time, pay for replacement items I need now, an extra month of PODS storage cost, and so on. Stay away from PODS.

great drop off at first location/and pickup. But, I ran into a problem with the pod not latching at the first location. Needed to find a very strong guy to muscle it into place, as the customer service couldn't send anyone and I couldn't leave the container unlocked. Great delivery to my new location, and the delivery guys hung until I was able to open the pod all the way.

Service was great. POD was delivered on time. Pick up had to be moved a day early due to city street issues. While POD was already fully booked that day, they sent a truck out ASAP to pick up the POD to avoid having the city Police tow it.

pods were roomy and clean; crew arrived on time. For those considering pods, the only negative is that you need to plan on your pods taking 8-10 days to arrive at the new destination.

No complaints on the pod, drop off and pick up. All that went fine and was as expected and advertised. Extremely convenient and easy, but it seems way more expensive than it should be. I would most likely not do it again do to that cost. If it was only 15-25% more than doing the rental truck/storage, it would be reasonable and I would do it ever time.

They delivered the PODS container 3 days later than agreed upon date, ordered well in advance. We had to miss scheduled get togethers with friends and neighbors to say good bye in order to pack up the container and get out of the house on time. Also had to pay for extra movers on a different day.
