How PODS works with a driveway

Get It & Load It

We deliver your container -- and there's no need to meet the driver, as PODS is a contactless service. Load your container on your schedule, right in your driveway. If you want help, we can connect you with local packing and loading companies.

Keep it

At-home storage gives you the flexibility you need, whether you want easy storage just steps away, or you want to take your time packing and loading.

Store it

If you need temporary storage, we'll pick up your loaded container and bring it to a local PODS Storage Centre, where it will be safe, secure, and easily accessible until you need it again.

Move it

We've got this, so you don't have to. We'll deliver your container to your new home, whether you're moving across town or across the country** If you need to ship your car, we can connect you with one of our preferred car shipping providers who will arrange professional services in your area.

How PODS works without a driveway: City Service

We come to you

PODS brings your sturdy, steel-framed portable container on a truck to your location. The container stays on the truck, so no driveway is needed.

You load/unload the container

A hydraulic lift, operated by our driver, allows for convenient ramp-free loading. It carries you, your helpers, and your belongings to and from your container.

We stay with your things while you load/unload

Our drivers stay with your container as you load and unload it. If you want help loading and unloading your container, we can refer you to local packing and loading professionals.

We worry about the driving

No need to drive a huge rental truck through busy city streets. PODS worries about the driving to your new home or one of our 240+ storage centers.
