How does Clutter work?

As a full-service storage company, Clutter picks-up, stores then delivers items when needed. First-time pickups can be scheduled online or over the phone with a Clutter customer service representative. On the scheduled pickup day, a team of Clutter moving specialists arrives at your location.

Before packing, Clutter collects a digital photographic inventory of your belongings and assigns a unique barcode to each item. Then, Clutter transports the inventory to one of their secured storage facilities.

If you want to retrieve an item in the future, all you need to do is access your Clutter account and select which item you need. Clutter will then deliver the item back to you.

    Natavica and Mecca are topnotch. They were polite, efficient and respectful of our furnishings, which were heavy and complicated to wrap and remove. They carefully addressed each item and made sure to handle everything with care. They’re as impressive as they are capable. Five stars doesn’t seem like a high enough rating! Natavica and Mecca are outstanding!

      Mecca, Everett, and Nataviea were great! They got all my stuff packed in under an hour, and they were super helpful and friendly if I had questions. They seem like very hard workers and I appreciated that they got it done quickly to minimize unexpected charges for me. I would definitely move with them again in the future!

      Movers were fantastic: fast, efficient, and careful with items as they wrap everything up! They took pictures of everything and scanned into my portal for inventory. It’s easy to see the whole process. The website is a little confusing to use and to understand the costs. The lead mover, Nataviae, explained to me better when she arrived on site.

      Had an appointment with the Clutter crew — Brian D, Everett, and Anthony — And I couldn’t be more impressed! They showed up right on time, handled everything with great care, and made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Their customer service was top-notch, and they were both professional and efficient from start to finish. I highly recommend this team if you’re looking for a reliable and hassle-free moving/storage experience. Thanks again to Brian, Everett, and Anthony for doing such an outstanding job!

      Terrible! Very expensive to store your belongings with them just to end up experiencing horrible service. I schedule a pick up time to retrieve my belongings from the Columbia, MD warehouse. The pick up window given was 8am-2pm. I arrived at the warehouse and the instructions given tells you to go to the “office” to check in. I arrived and there was no office. However, there was a trailer outside with no one in it. I knocked on the door and waited for over 45 mins for someone to show. Finally a warehouse worker showed. While waiting for 45 mins I called Clutter's customer service and was told that they do not have the direct line to this so called “office” at the warehouse - nor could they call the warehouse directly. So basically customer service was not helpful.

      I had movers with me that had to wait around with me. This process could have been so simple but it wasn’t. It unconvinced me and my movers. And let me finish up by saying that despite Nov 10th being my last day to store my belongings - Clutter charged me for the FULL month of November. One would think that I would be charged a prorated amount.

      Stay away from Clutter unless you like pain! I wish I could give -100 stars to Clutter. I'm a bit nomadic, so I move a lot and know no move is perfect. However I have never, ever, never had to deal with the amount of problems that came with hiring Clutter. On my move day, only 2 or the 3 movers showed up. Since they were short staffed they couldn't finish my move that day. The movers said they would come back the next day. I said ok, because I had built in an extra day wiggle room. However, after the movers left with part of my belonging I got a call from Clutter saying they couldn't come back for 2 more days. I had to be out of my apartment and had a trip booked so I had no choice but to call another moving company to finish the move and put the remained of my belongings in a local storage facility.

      On several occasions I tried to have Clutter come pick up my belongings from the local storage and add them to my belongings at Clutter. There was always an issue, so getting my belongs to one place never happened. I ended up paying an additional $1500 ( 5 months) for the local storage company. Then when it was time to move my things out of storage I incurred an additional charge of $500 from my long distance moving company because I had two separate pickup locations. Also, Clutter charges you if you have a moving service pick up your things from them $450. Stay away from this company. Just go with a local service. Again, moving is stressful but Clutter will have you clutching your chest and on the ground shaving a massive heart attack.

      Clutter quickly provided a second review resulting in greater compensation for the damages. While this is appreciated goes further to recoup damages, I would urge prospective customers to fully consider their choices in choosing moving and storage options and the necessary care and protection required for same.

      Original Review: Oct. 24, 2025

      The cost of services/storage may be low, but you get what you pay for!!!. Several items were damaged in storage, and their policy provides little coverage, and of course home insurance deductibles are too high, making it almost impossible to recoup your losses. Nearly all our dishware was broken, which they wouldn't reimburse us for, claiming that they couldn't be responsible for what we packed, though these boxes were clearly marked DELICATE/FRAGILE. YET, items clutter packed, including a lamp, were damaged and they would not cover the damages (their policy of course).

      UPDATED ON 11/5/2025: What a joke you guys are! I did what was asked and submitted more proof and actual estimates for the damage to my home and nothing. Radio silence! My account is under Samantha ** since you could not find my account. I submitted more claims and wasted more of my time to not even get a resolution or even a response. Incredibly frustrating and not geared towards the satisfaction of your customers. Just want to steal your money and destroy your items as well as your home.

      ORIGINAL REVIEW: If I could give this place a zero I would. Unfortunately I can't. If you value your furniture etc for storage do not and I repeat do not use this company! I will be reporting them to the BBB as well as any other places I can and getting a lawyer! My items were in storage for approximately 4 years. When delivery was set up to move into my newly renovated home, not only did they come in and run out the door (I looked for them and could not find them, they left their movng blankets on my furniture). My bed frame was delivered without the parts that went into the storage unit. They damaged my front door, my walls all scratched up and my daughter's new flooring has a deep scratch from the front door all the way to the bed where they placed it.

      My plate set had 8 plates. I have 3 that are not broken out of the 8. I provided images for the damaged flooring as well as an estimate from our contractor who came and saw the damage and wrote an estimate. They reviewed it and denied the estimate. I did not sign anything prior to delivery as well as when they finished but they were quick to charge my card illegally without my consent and signatures. The list goes on and on with how negligent they are with handling your personal items as well as your home. Absolutely disgusting company

      From the beginning, they are quick when picking up your belongings, but extremely difficult when it comes to returning them. We couldn’t move for over a month because, according to them, they were “booked up” for 1.5 months. There’s no contact number or email, and no one responds to messages. After almost two months, on our move-in day, they finally showed up with boxes that were popped and clear signs of careless handling. I watched them throw boxes, drag bags on the ground, and push furniture down the stairs.

      Most of our kitchen items were damaged: coffee machine parts missing and broken, smoothie machine broken, even the metal slow cooker dented, and all the glassware shattered. Even our clothes were damaged, as they seemed to have stacked heavy items on top. They completely ignored “fragile” labels. Overall, very disappointing experience, quick to take your items, but careless and unresponsive when it matters most. I DO NOT RECOMMEND this company!!
