One was early another later by a couple of days. Neighbors were great. We even had one on the street that they were late getting to. I think 5 days.
Same here with us. We were told 3 days but it was well known it may be more. All our neighbors were great too. No issues.

Same buying in CYV and having 3 cars, two golf carts, and work van and can’t get but one golf cart in garage cause it’s full of junk, park on street, yard, and in dead end short street, how think those neighbors feel knowing Vehicle has to be in driveway in CYVs in that district. Or bricking in front and side yards IN CYV to create parking lot.

Seems to me being "inconsiderate" would be on the part of a person who "would not care" what the neighbors thought.

:sad:

Hopefully PODS doesn't loose your POD. 2 1/2 weeks missing kitchen & bedroom stuff (no bed). They did pay for accomidations for that time

Loose whole pod? When I done pod I put lock on and had the key. I also zip tied see if it was tampered with in inconspicuous place.

Looking back at what I wrote and your response, I have to agree. I've always been a good neighbor, but I believe that if I had ONE neighbor that was a complainer, I still think that I would not care what they thought. I don't believe that moving into or out of a home, warrants a label of "inconsiderate" even if the POD set in the driveway for a couple weeks. Then again, I wouldn't be thinking that the neighbor was making a mini-home out of it. :D

Customers have a means to keep track of their POD online or with a phone app.

Moving is very hectic but, people would be well-advised to keep track of their POD and begin asking questions by phone if it looks to be stalled somewhere.

Some people unable to unload and maybe waiting for help and some maybe just non-motivated.

If your neighbors complain after a few days that is a good indicator that you should reload the pod and look for another house.

I'm planning on moving to the Villages next year. Are Pods permitted to be parked in the driveway and is there a limit to how long it can be there??
We just moved, we used u-haul U-Box. It was cheaper and worked great for us. Good luck.

Just as a side note, a neighbors (several years ago) had a pod delivered, and they left tire marks on the driveway, sorry i do not recall how these were removed, my point if you have a finished driveway ask them to be careful or possibly have some plywood to protect the driveway.
I also tend to agree with many of the comments that up to several days should not be a problem.

Pods
 
We wanted to use them and they don't go to every zip code in the villages. If tour zip is 32162, you are O.K

You know that you are in a good neighborhood when your new neighbors come over and ask if they can assist you in unloading.
