PODS® Reviews
PODS is a good company, very good communicators about where the POD is at all times. The container itself was sturdy and well built. I can't comment yet on long-term storage, as I am currently still storing with them, but so far so good. Not the big expense that many people were complaining about with PODS.
PODS is great. Both drivers for pickup and delivery were excellent - though in Portland they supposedly can't go up onto the curb to get the PODS any closer than one foot away from the curb (be sure to let your neighbors know) The PODS was clean and had a lot of attachment points. Pro tip: call PODS when making a reservation to get the best deal - and lock in your move as far out as possible to avoid Peak Season hikes. Also - relax! Our entire life in a 1300 sq ft house fit into a 16ft PODS. You can do it! Just google franks worldwide moving to watch how they pack a moving truck. :)
I used POD's for my moving and everything went as scheduled. I couldn't believe how much you can pack in and when you secure your belongings properly nothing shifted or broke in transit. It was so convenient to have it for a month and pack whenever you had time and there are no ramps to walk up as the POD sits ground level. Definitely would use them again.
After reading many OLD negative reviews, I was a bit nervous. The container was delivered in the time window as promised with professional phone calls and proper follow up when delivered and picked up. The website states the proper costs and details. I'm only half way through the PODS experience but so far so good. I would recommend them.
PODS came right on schedule for both drop off and pick up. They maneuvered very carefully in our driveway. The POD was very clean and easy to load. This was an excellent way to move a modest amount of furniture from MI to FL. Working with PODS on the phone was easy and the staff was knowledgeable and polite. We would definitely use them again.
We used a 16x8 PODS container to move across the country. We were completely satisfied with the service. The Pod contained a lot of heavy furniture from 4 large rooms, plus around 25-30 boxes. It was tightly packed, but everything fit. Nothing was damaged, after traveling 2000 miles. Customer service was excellent. We would highly recommend PODS and would definitely use them again!
