I would highly recommend using PODS for local and cross-country moving and storage. I used PODS to store my belongings and then move them across four states. Everything arrived in one piece and exactly as packed. From the person I booked everything with on the phone to the delivery driver to the person who picked up the empty container, everyone was lovely and incredibly professional. I will use PODS for any future moving needs.

I have used PODS twice in the last 2 years for long-distance moving. I can't say enough good things about this company. So helpful, truck drivers very kind and thoughtful. I highly recommend PODS!

Storage with PODS was easy, convenient, and more affordable than self-storage units without the hassle of transporting belongings across town. Nice.

PODS takes the burden off of cross-country moving. Ordering the PODS container is easy, setting up the delivery dates was smooth and the pricing is clear. The container is always clean with a strong securing latch. I move with confidence when I move with PODS.

Very easy to set up. Great price for not having to drive your stuff across town or another state. PODS was excellent helping set up the move and changing dates around. It's also nice not having to balance the load inside the container, the way they pick it up. The website is easy to use as well, checking the status of the deliveries or pick-ups and changing dates.

PODS is a great solution if you are moving across town or moving out of state. It’s so easy and you have piece of mind regarding your belongings. They are safe with PODS. The delivery and pick up people are so nice and knowledgeable about what they do. This is the second time we used PODS. If we move again, I will definitely use them again.

PODS's service was excellent from beginning to end. I used them to move cross-country. Their recommendation for local movers to pack the containers was great. PODS customer service was able to reschedule delivery multiple times for me. It worked out great, being able to store my items until my house was complete. I also had quotes from two other national brands. PODS had the best rate.

Great experience for our long-distance move. We watched the PODS video on how to pack the unit, and that turned out well; we packed so much into the PODS unit, and nothing got damaged. I liked having plenty of time to pack it. We hired local movers to help us unpack it so we could return it within a month. Excellent customer service by phone, and the drivers we met were excellent, very helpful and experts at maneuvering the Podzilla. We enjoyed watching Podzilla in action, brilliant system!

I used PODS storage to store our garage items while we had new drywall and insulation installed. They were very easy to book and reschedule. The drivers were very careful when dropping off the container and explained how everything worked. Overall it was a very easy and positive experience and would use again!

Absolutely the best service for moving possible!!!! The rates were cheaper than a UHaul and only about $50-60 more for the month than storage that I looked at. I love the fact that they bring it to you, move it, and then come remove it. It makes moving so much easier!!!! The drivers were all respectful and considerate of the yard/house/items near the location. I kept it for about 1.5 months before moving and it made moving soooooooo much easier!!!!

The most positive aspect was: I moved from Florida to New York State and stored my possessions for two months before delivery. All staff encountered were friendly and efficient in both states. PODS containers were delivered and picked up on time. When I called to clarify the charges, everything was explained clearly. No complaints. I highly recommend PODS for moving and storage and would definitely use them again.

I needed short-term storage of some household items while all of our windows were replaced. PODS was the perfect solution at what I considered to be a reasonable cost.

As we traveled for over 2 years we put our possessions in a PODS container. The process of delivery and pick up were so easy. When we had our POD delivered, everything was perfect. Since the container was stored in a temperature controlled storage nothing was broken, warped, or messed up. Again delivery & pick up was easy. Highly recommend!!!

The cost is minimal compared to getting a moving company to pack personal belongings, where you have little or no control over how they are packed and when they arrive. As timelines change, PODS are flexible, and you can take as much or as little time as you need.
