    Our container finally arrived, ten days late. The only reliable part of the experience was extremely long hold times when we tried to get updates in the situation. I can't believe this company is still in business. Stay away.

    Current one and half hour phone call

    They're great selling you the pods! BEAWARE they have two departments the selling department and the service department when you call. You get the selling Department right away and they will sell you whatever it is you need so it's five star service at that point. Once they have your reservation and cc you need to go to the service department for everything else. I have never gotten through on that phone line the first time around. They have a call back option since their service department is so overrun with customers. And I have tried that one several times and only got a call back once. So if you hang on and wait on the phone your AVERAGE wait time is almost 2 hours if not more. That is beyond unacceptable for any service department in any service category. I gave them two stars one because the selling part is actually good. And the second star because the people at the Garden Grove Warehouse are actually extremely nice when they come out and put the containers down and pick them up. Seriously, I will never use these people again. I even called and ask to speak to a manager when my phone call went over 2 hours. You know what they did ...... I KID YOU NOT....they transferred me to the service manager where I got the same call waiting message that I am on hold with and that I can leave my phone number for a call back..... you can't even get a hold of a manager when you have an issue! I think they need to look up what customer service is and maybe try and give some of that

    These are the confirmation delivery texts I kept receiving.

    Mismanaged and the customer service is nonexistent. Avoid at all costs! Use literally anyone else.

The owner personally came to my home, inspected the area I wished to drop my box and where Pods had refused to drop, and the next day his driver came to my warehouse to drop off an empty container, waited while we loaded it which we had completed in under 30 minutes and then took my To Go Box to my home address where it sits now happily in my 75 foot long 1949 drive way by my garage:) The Driver could not have been more gracious, helpful and courteous. Just the day before the Pods driver had been disrespectful; pompous and uncooperative and thus I canceled service with them (they lost a 7 month service contract) and now happy as can be with To Go Box!:) There are many choices via these mobile storage boxes, as is I have tried three; Pack Rat tried to add on unmentioned delivery fees not listed on their website thus I canceled that; Pods practically impossible to communicate with by phone unless you want to wait 40+ minutes and then luck of the draw if the driver is professional and courteous or not and then lastly of the three To Go Box whom I love and will happily use until my work is done:) I cannot say enough positive things about this business and it's people.

I was busy finishing things up in the house. Had I known I would have to keep an eye on them, it would have saved me a lot of money. Furniture arrived damaged and, in the end, there were boxes missing. Tags were missing on some of the boxes and others were inventoried incorrectly. An antique chair had a leg broken off. Because the legs were delicate I had reinforced them with 1x2 pieces of wood. When they arrived one of the legs had been broken off and taped with packing tape. Most of the furniture I'd disassembled and wrapped in stretch wrap. A couple of pieces hadn't been wrapped in the stretch wrap and they used packing tape directly on the furniture. It took the finish off where the tape had been placed. A lot of the furniture had damage to the corners and sides. Because I was inside I hadn't noticed they had packed shelves, fully assembled, and put them on the truck not utilizing the space on the shelves (thus eating up a lot of room and I was being charged by the foot). I opened boxes that they had packed only to find very large boxes that were half full. Again, using up more space on the truck. When they got to my new apartment they claimed they could not pull the moving truck into the alley. I had seen a moving truck there a week earlier. This meant they had to move things from the moving truck to a smaller truck (an additional $1,100). It was the end of the move and the person who was in charge of the move hurridly had me sign the contract with Rhino. He was loosely explaining things to me as I signed. "Oh this is the standard count, this is an explanation of the delivery, etc". I was tired and, admittedly, signed them. So they're covered. I'm missing a box that contained a firesafe and various other paperwork. Luckily I'd packed most of the truly important and valuable stuff in my car for the move. Between work and the bulk of the boxes that were shipped I am just now realizing the items missing because it has taken me a few weeks to unpack. The guys on this end were hard workers and I really appreciated their effort. In the end, the move that was originally quoated $12K turned into better than $17K. Oh, and they only take cash or money orders.

I was told that bc the door didn't appear to be damaged there could be no claim. Hilariously enough same happened doors down with another tenant more than a few times--that door was never replaced. The claim was never taken seriously even with a report. Even had the nerve to try and charge after a move out even with so much missing. And had the nerve to be rude abt it!!! They changed management so many times it would make your head spin. Let's speak to door though-- inside of the unit never had a working light (they blamed this on me). And the inside had been boarded higher than when I moved in--these people have watched and they know who frequents and doesn't . It's used to advantage ! There is no way that much can leave a persons space and not be noticed. Any parties involved will see their misdeeds again--FOLDED. God Bless
