Is PODS kidding me?
 

Just called to schedule my POD delivery and all was going as planned until the woman on the phone said, "Oh, I don't think we deliver to The Villages." Are you kidding me? I never would have used PODS if they had told me that ahead of time! So now she is calling the Ocala facility to check on it. Has anyone on this board heard anything about this? She had better be mistaken!:rant-rave:

Find some old threads on Pods. I think there were some shenanigans reported before about them and their delivery and sticks in my mind it was the Ocala place that was the cause of the angst.

I hope this works out. Tell them you will call the national office.

They delivered our PODS IN 2007 . So unless it has changed since then, "yes" they do deliver to The Villages.

Pods
 

I used PODS had no problem but I live in 32162. I seem to remember the post GC was talking about. I believe Sanibel had a different zip code then N/O 466a and the place that people booked there PODS from didn't deliver to that zip and another PODS branch got involved.

Does TV have restrictions on How long these can sit in a driveway? Maybe that has something to do with it.

We used PODS in 2009. No problem. Call back and ask to speak to a person.

I remember that thread. Since Sanibel is in another zip code it fell into the Orlando delivery area, but I think after the resident complained PODS of Ocala delivered but charged an extra $200. Also, I believe the PODS are allowed 3 days in the driveway.

A friend living in the Village of Calumet Grove in Marion County moved two months ago and was able to get two PODS. Insaw them Perhaps the county makes a difference.

Hi Lynnelf,
I hope this works out for you. It would seem shameful if PODS doesn't tell you in advance that they cannot deliver to your intended address. :swear:

Please let us know how this works out.

Umm....when we were driving around the newer areas of the villages with a sales rep i know we passed at least two homes with pods sitting in there driveways and that was mid february of this year. I do believe the lady was uninformed or misinformed....

same thing happened to my son. Had to have it delivered to Ocala!

I would assume you have a written quote from them which would indicate the final delivery destination, if you do you should have no problem.

Skip:

What does "N/O 466a" and "N/O 466" (from thread about cart hitting a bike rider) mean?

No problem for us in 32162 last May, 2011 i think 72 hours is the limit sitting inour cyv driveway and that worked fine for us.

N/O = north of
