      I am moving from ************, ** to ****************, **. I did not want to pay movers and since I had some time between finding a permanent new residence and selling my old house, I decided to get a POD and move at my leisure and have it delivered to my new address. When I called for pickup, I was informed that they do not service ****************, **. I asked for a refund since the service I paid for was to avoid the cost of movers. They declined any refund and ripped me off $563. I could have staged all of my belongings in a room in my house and paid movers for $1000. Now I have to pay PODs and movers? Insanity. I did not receive the service that was advertised to me on their ******* advertisements. "Pack and your leisure. We'll drop the pod off when you're ready."

      I am rejecting this response because: you should change your advertisement. Your customer service representatives, while professional, I feel are trained not to issue any amount of refund are seems like this is a typical occurrence. 

      Your advertisement are misleading. I do not need any refund and need no further contact (which I'm sure is what your business model is built on and all that you care about). But I do believe your business is dirty and interested in misleading customers as much as possible.

      I scheduled my move from ********** to ****************** with PODS moving and storage in June. I scheduled with two different people to ensure that my POD arrived in ********* on the fourteenth of July, as this is my move-in date. As the date approached, I could not help but notice that my POD was still in **************** when it should be in transit. I called and was informed that the correct date was not put into their system and they could not deliver my stuff until the 21st of July. This directly contradicts what I was told and left me with no bed or clothes or cookware. I called and spoke to someone else who opened a case and said someone would listen to the recorded call, refund me a portion of the cost, and deliver it by the seventeenth (again, all recorded). To make sure of this, I called yet again and spoke to a different girl, who promised that my POD would be delivered on the 17th of July. She told me that once a manager reviews the call to verify my claims, they will rush the transit and I will receive a call back if they can deliver it before the 17th. It is now the 16th and I called again. This time I was told that the case did NOT call for the review of the recorded calls (I was lied to) and that my POD would not be delivered by the 17th (I was lied to again). I asked to escalate this to a supervisor, was on hold for over an hour, and was told I would receive a call back. I did not. I was told wrong information by four separate people on four separate days and I have been sleeping on the floor five and a half hours away from my home in a new empty apartment with NOTHING. And no, I never received the refund either. I just want my things already. All of these calls are recorded as well, so I have a very solid case.

      We hired PODs Moving & Storage to have a *** delivered to our address, picked up and held until we found a house in another state, delivered to a storage facility in our new state, and delivered to our new address. We moved to ******** from ********. We were able to receive and fill the *** and have it picked up for storage in ********. Once we found a house in ********, we called to request the *** to be delivered to their storage facility in ********, and then to be delivered to our new house. When we called to have the *** delivered, we were told the *** was out of their delivery area. Our only option is to unload the *** at their facility and have a ********************************* our belonging to deliver to our house. NO WHERE in our contract was there any mention of a limited delivery area, no one on the phone when we were booking the *** mentioned anything about a limited delivery area. This was not the service we signed up for. We wanted delivery to our new home. We would have never used this service if we were aware of any delivery limitation.

      We were estimated a total and was billed something different. They keep trying to take money out of my account. I had to report them as fraud with my bank and had to order a new debit card. I was told my move would cost a little over $900 and they took that and $479 and are trying to take another $369. . They are a scam and take advantage of senior citizens like myself

      Dear *** *********:I am writing primarily to express my deep concern regarding your rental terms. It was my responsibility to understand the full terms of the agreement, and that is on me. However, I must say that I find it extremely unethical and abusive that a customer must absorb a full month rental charge even if the container is not used for the entire month. I had a container from June 16 to June 26. I would think that PODS would amend the monthly charge accordingly. This is my concern. What do I expect? I am not sure other than to be held accountable for not thoroughly reading the contract. As a disabled veteran, every ***** counts! Respectfully,/s/ ***** E. *****

      I am in receipt of your correspondence concerning PODS Enterprises, LLC customer, Mr. ***** *****.
      On June 8, 2025, Mr. ***** created an order online through our official PODS website. As part of this order, he scheduled the initial container delivery for June 16, 2025. Subsequently, on June 23, 2025, Mr. ***** scheduled the pickup of the empty container for June 27, 2025, also via our website.


      PODS has been serving customers for over 20 years, and throughout that time, our containers have consistently been billed on a month-to-month basis. It is ultimately the customers decision whether to utilize the container for the full month or to return it earlier. The terms of the rental, including the monthly billing structure, are clearly outlined and acknowledged by the customer at the time of agreement.


      We place tremendous value on our customers and strive to uphold the highest standards within our industry. We regret any inconvenience Mr. ***** may have experienced. PODS Enterprises, LLC takes great pride in the quality of our customer service, and it is unfortunate that Mr. ***** feels his experience did not reflect this commitment. Whenever a customer shares feedback indicating a less-than-satisfactory experience, we take that input seriously. We review the related processes and take appropriate measures to address concerns and improve the customer experience ********************** forward.

      Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention.

      I was referred to you by one of the customer service specialist after I had called requesting a refund of my delivery fee. On July 14, 2025 I had requested cancellation of my pod. The pod ended up still being delivered anyway despite the cancellation. I understand that there is a fee for same day, cancellation, However, I was still charged the delivery fee. The amount total I was charged was ******. There was also a pending charge for *****. After the pod was mistakenly delivered, I called one of your representatives and was informed that I will not be charged at all because it was our mistake that the pod was still delivered. having the pot in the driveway and not using it was a severe inconvenience as I am trying to move, and it was in the way at that point. I put in a dispute with ****** because I was told I wouldnt be charged and I still was. Also, there was a request put in to change my email address for my account which I did not do. I have attached photo evidence of all these transactions as well as the email request change. I hope that your company can resolve this issue

      Upon thorough review, we can confirm that the resolution offered aligns with the account activity and ********************** rental agreement terms. Ms. *********** booked her order online on July 10, 2025, with a scheduled container delivery for July 14, 2025, and empty pickup on July 15, 2025.

      However, as a courtesy, we have reduced the applicable cancellation fee and issued a credit for Ms. ************ In addition, multiple outreach attempts were made on July 17, July 21, and July 28, 2025, to discuss her billing concerns and assist in resolving the matter.

      Ordered 3 separate PODS on dates - 5/17/2025, 5/20/2025, and 5/24/2025. The company lied about cost, moved our PODS in the opposite direction of which we moved and then charged an absurd amount for mileage. They left tired marks all over drive way, wont help us with date for picking up and dropping off as they only do it on certain days and dont have anyone to help. Told us we only needed to call and give 48 hours notice and they would deliver our PODS but we had to wait 8 days for delivery. The straw that broke the camels back was them delivering the PODS to wrong address. Ive spent hours on the phone with them trying to come to a solution on all these issues but Im not getting anywhere. Please help! The PODS account is in my sisters name, ***** ****** but she cant deal with all this.

      I was incorrectly charged sales tax for three months ******* **** and June of 2025) on contents protection insurance. Instance is not taxable. I did not buy taxable, tangible "goods". Spent over two hours speaking to Pods billing **** and even asked for a supervisor **** but everyone is unhelpful and won't refund the tax. Claiming they aren't responsible and the state charges it. But they ARE reasonable as their system generate the invites and collect the tax. They are using out of the country representatives who actually told me to call the Ca tax board to verify and call them back. As if they would then believe me and I wouldn't have to spend 5 hours going around in circles again.

      Complaint: 23598096

      I am rejecting this response because:

      Please note that while Pods did not acknowledge incorrectly charging sales tax on a non taxable insurance add on, they did make an attempt to offer me a "goodwill" refund of the tax on the amount of $12.57.  I responded that my credit card company removed the charges from my bill and likely absorbed the minor cost, as I literally charge hundreds of dollars each month and pay my bill in full monthly. It would cost the credit card more money to pay an employee to investigate.  So Pods did NOT provide any meaningful refund of the tax and is merely allowing my credit card company to take the loss in this matter.  Unless they can show proof that they reimbursed me, or my credit card company, they have not in my eyes satisfactorily or ethically resolved this matter.  If they reimburse me, I will notify my credit card issuer so that they can collect their money back.

      Sincerely,

      ***** *****

      PODS moving and storage was used by my mother (**** *********) to move all of her belongings to the Poconos from the greater ************ area. The agreed schedule was to have the *** picked up on Friday July 11th, and delivered to her new house Friday July 17th. After completely filling the pod we got a no call no show on the day it was supposed to be picked up (July 11th). The driver never called to give us an estimated time of arrival, and he never called after he said he "left". After reviewing many cases online it seems this company runs a scam where pickup drivers never actually arrive to pick up the pod and then the company says there was an issue. Now this storage container will be stuck at her old house while the new buyers are moving in, and they have changed the delivery date to 2 and a half weeks later. ALL of her belongings are now in ***** and she will have nothing at her new house for an extended period of time. On top of all this they will be charging her an extra $500 for a later delivery date. We are deeply concerned by this company and this is one of the worst experiences of my mother's 76 years on this planet. Her whole life is in that POD and they seem to be playing games with it.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      PODS has pushed back the delivery to August 6th which is an unbelievable inconvenience. At this point we will lobby for a full refund.

      I am in receipt of your correspondence concerning PODS Enterprises, LLC customer, **** ********** Our review confirms that the PODS brand container was redelivered on July 19, 2025. The originally scheduled pickup on July 11, 2025, was not completed due to a vehicle obstructing access, which prevented the driver from retrieving the container. This unforeseen obstruction contributed to a delay in the subsequent delivery to the destination location. We regret any inconvenience this may have caused Ms. ********** As of July 22nd, 2025, a resolution was reached and we can confirm that Ms. *********** issue has been addressed. Based on this, we ask that you close this complaint as resolved.

      I am rejecting this response because PODS offered no refund of any kind for all of our stress and delays after offering multiple times over the phone.

      I am in receipt of your correspondence from Corduff ********* regarding our PODS customer.

      The initial pickup attempt on 7/11 was not completed due to an obstruction that prevented access to the container. The container was subsequently retrieved on 7/15. While our drivers make courtesy calls when possible, these are not guaranteed as part of the standard service.

      This delay impacted the timeline for the return to storage and, in turn, the redelivery schedule. PODS worked with the appropriate teams and local facility to expedite the process. The container was redelivered on 7/19 and retrieved empty on 7/23.

      A review of the account confirmed that all applicable charges were accurately disclosed and aligned with the services provided.  It is important to note there was no fee associated with the retrieval of the full container.

      We regret any dissatisfaction the customer may have experienced. ********************** appreciates all feedback as it helps us evaluate and enhance the customer experience.
