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.

Call our dedicated city moving team for your customized moving quote.
Our set delivery times make it easy to coordinate elevator services and loading assistance.

Hours of Operation: 8 a.m. to 10 p.m., Monday through Saturday.

PODS city moving reviews

Matthew G., NYC

“The city service in NYC was amazing. It made moving out as easy as it could have been.”

Christopher T., Brooklyn

“The driver who brought the PODS container to me in Brooklyn was the best ever!!!!! Not easy moving into a one way street on a busy Saturday afternoon. He helped move traffic, block off access so I could work more efficiently, and had my back as some New Yorkers are very difficult to deal with. He was professional and courteous and deserves a raise after what we both had to deal with for that hour. He is a keeper when it comes to customer service.”

John A., NYC

“Friendly customer service. Everyone we dealt with was extremely positive and helpful. We set this up at the last minute and it went incredibly smooth - We have moved A LOT, this was the very best!”

PODS delivers a container right to your driveway. You can take your time packing and loading on your schedule.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does PODS work when I don't have a driveway?

When you don't have a driveway, options depend on your community's regulations and your particular situation. We can easily deliver and place a container on the street near your home if your local municipality, HOA or property manager allows street placement. A permit may be required and your local government, HOA or community can assist with acquiring it. If street placement isn't an option, PODS City Service may be the ideal way to go. PODS delivers a portable container on a truck to your location. The container remains on the truck while you load or unload it. PODS takes care of the permits and our driver remains with the container to keep an eye on your belongings.
