PODS has achieved a remarkable milestone by securing one of the top spots on Newsweek’s prestigious America’s Best Customer Service 2024 list in the Moving Services category. This recognition reflects input from more than 30,000 U.S. customers who have made purchases, used services, or gathered information about products or services in the past three years.

PODS scored highly across the board in a highly competitive field that includes traditional household goods movers, truck rental providers, and companies offering containerized moving solutions.

PODS is the highest-ranking portable moving and storage container provider. Newsweek's rankings are based on two critical components: the likelihood of recommendation, which accounts for 50% of the final score, and five evaluation criteria that also contribute to the remaining 50% of the final score:

Quality of Communication
Professional Competence
Range of Services
Customer Focus
Accessibility
