The movers were terrific. The POD was dropped in our neighbors driveway and after much discussion with the local POD servicer, they came back and moved it to the right driveway. The only thing tough for me was to judge how much time it would take to pack and load. I scheduled 4 hours for packing and we only needed three. I scheduled 4 hours for loading and only needed two. However, the moving/packing company still charged me for the full hours, even though we didn't use them.

The PODS container was entirely too small! I relied on the PODS customer service to detail how may PODS we would need, they suggested one, so we only ordered one. On the day of our move, we were scrambling to rent other trucks etc to get all of our stuff to our final destination. PODS failed in properly assessing our needs. Other than that, the concept of a POD really is a fantastic idea. So my poor rating is based SOLEY on improper fact finding by PODS to recommend the appropriate number of PODs needed.

We had two PODS containers delivered at first and required a third. PODS was able to accommodate our request and had it delivered prior to the movers coming to pack the containers.

We just moved 2 rooms plus household goods since we were downsizing. Originally had planned on using a regular moving company but changed our minds after reading horror stories that some people had. We packed our own goods and hired someone to load and unload the PODS. The big movers need to get a handle on what their contractors are doing.

PODS delivered their container on time when they said. The next day they picked it up on time.....interesting process the PODzilla. Only hiccup was the initial contact as the girl I spoke with seemed like she was new to the job (had to ask alot of questions to someone in the back ground) and ordered an EMPTY POD pickup the next day (instead of the full one for delivery to their storage area). This mistake was noticed by the gentleman I spoke with the night before to confirm delivery and pickup. PS- I was not moving, just putting furniture in storage for a few home upgrades

The customer service for PODS was very easy to work with so far. The container was large enough for the items we determined we were storing until the final move, At this point this is an option I would consider using in any future move.

Good service overall. My only complaint is that they didn't tell me until a couple weeks before my move that they would/could not deliver the POD to the building I was moving into in Chicago (and I only found this out because I was specifically checking into this). So, I had to hire a separate moving company at the last minute to unload my POD at the warehouse and truck my belongings to the building, at an added cost of $900. It was an unwelcome surprise.

The ordering process was super easy. Most account and order items can be handled online. Our experience was very good, especially when dealing with PODS online or through their 800 number. Our only issue was the POD was 3 hours late (past the 3 hour window) delivering without a phone call. I was stressed enough without having to worry about whether the unit would be delivered.

Recommended by my son. Selected due to convenience for loading/unloading. Received quote and spoke to representative who was very patient and informative. POD arrived on time in clean and neat condition. Loaded today, on way to son's house with second POD to follow to our new home. All staff pleasant, cooperative, helpful and courteous. Thus far, a smooth experience. Will definitely recommend and use again.

Container was clean and strong. I would use them again. They were flexible with scheduling. All went well until delivery of the POD. Deliver was later than their window time and I had a crew waiting to unload. Driver didn't allow for traffic and then she drove under a tree and broke off a huge limb with the POD - twice before she figured it wouldn't work. Other than this driver, the experience was great, as was everyone with whom I worked. I would use them again.

We moved most of the furniture from our house to my son's house. PODS were beat up when they arrived. Floorboard attachments poked up into furniture. Load shifted contributing to significant damage to furniture.

Our experience with the pods was horrible. They delivered the pods with a delay of 4 days. They never told us where our container was even after their promised deadline of delivery. My wife and I had to go through days of trauma and anxiety about the whereabouts of our precious things. We also had to do last minute shopping for our travel right after as we had lost all confidence on them. No compensation offered as of yet from pods.

The container was fine but the pick-up was problematic. The POD was delivered Th. am and was to be loaded and picked up on Fr. Th. pm I received an automated call that it would be picked up between 7.30-8.30 Fri. am. The loaders weren't even supposed to arrived until 9 am Fr.! I had already spoken with a POD's rep asking for a late afternoon pick-up on Fri. and was assured that would happen. It took two assertive follow-up calls to make it happen, adding to the already high level of stress a move causes.

I had more PODS space than I needed. It was less expensive to keep what I had and move a minimally filled POD than return it and get a smaller one - delivery charges eat you up. Too much POD was what PODS "sold" me.
