Recent HireAHelper Customer Move Costs & Reviews
As stated above when the 16' POD arrived is looked smaller than we expected. My huband measured it and it was 20% smaller than expected as compared to the website's dimensions. As we read more closely, the description did say "outside dimensions." When we spoke to customer service my husband explained that the website is there for the customer. Customers need to know the inside dimensions and many would do what we did; assume the measurements shown are for the interior. We suggest strongly that the website be accurate to what the customer needs to know.
I really like the POD company. They stored my pod for several months at a reasonable cost, and they delivered right on time. Twice. The driver, Ed, who was unbelievably good and helpful, could not deliver the pod as scheduled because the location was blocked. But he made an extra effort to redeliver my things the next day despite a snowstorm that left the area blanketed and difficult to drive in
It was a wonderful experience. Moved about 1/2 of our residence. I could not say enough positive things about their service. On time and efficient. Everything arrived in excellent shape. I had a hiccup at delivery, and John (at Dispatch) and Cory (Driver) took care of it right away saving my butt. Everyone was pleasant and easy to work with. I recommend them over any other carrier that I researched for the move. Half the cost of PODS with more space. Check them out.
