PODS Protection Options
With PODS, you can choose from two coverage options: Contents Protection Option & Container Only Option.
These options provide additional coverage for your belongings and/or the container while you move and store.

Contents Protection Option
PODS' Contents Protection Option covers damage or loss to the items inside your PODS Container, and it also covers the container itself from loss or damage.

Container Only Option
In the event your homeowner’s insurance policy covers your belongings during your move or storage project, this option covers ONLY your container.

Coverage Levels
We offer lots of coverage levels, from $5,000 all the way up to $300,000, so you can find the level that best represents the value of your belongings. Even better, there’s a deductible of just $100 per claim for all levels of coverage. For more information about coverage levels, download our brochure.

Moving checklist
Whether you're moving across the street or across the country, this checklist has you covered.
Which types of property are not covered under the Contents Protection Option?
The Contents Protection Option does not cover items stored in the container that are prohibited by our Rental Agreement.
Which types of events are not covered under the Contents Protection Option?
Damage to contents stored in the container caused by improper packing, normal shifting, or willful or intentional acts is not covered by the Contents Protection Option. By using proper packing and loading techniques, damage caused by normal container handling and road vibration can be significantly reduced.

How are items valued under the Contents Protection Option?
Damaged items will be replaced based on their depreciated value, which is the replacement cost minus any depreciation (loss of value over time due to factors such as age, wear and tear, and obsolescence).
What does the Container Only option cover?
The Container Only Option covers any loss or damage to your PODS container, no matter the cause, including lightning, windstorm, hail, fire, smoke, explosion, vandalism, riot, malicious mischief, falling objects or auto accidents. Damage to the container, however, will not be covered if it was caused by your willful or intentional acts. Under no circumstances will the Container Only Option cover any loss or damage to any property stored in the PODS container.
