Google carries another listing under this name in Cleveland. They may be separate branches or duplicate entries for the same business — we cannot tell which, so we publish both: the other listing.

The rating breakdown

4 of the 23 ratings in Google’s published star breakdown for Morse Moving and Storage are one or two star.

Worked out from 23 ratings. That is enough to publish but few enough that one more review moves it noticeably, so read it as a hint rather than a measurement.

In their own words

2-star Google reviewDylana G.3 years ago
We originally chose Morse Moving because my parents used them and had a great experience, plus they had competitive pricing. Moving out went relatively smooth but it was the moving in that was terrible. They reduced their 7 man crew to 5 which essentially was more like 2 because there were only two men that worked while the other two placed things in the wrong rooms and complained about how long it was taking.
1-star Google reviewShade S.2 years ago
Terrible experience. The guy (John Bishop) who came initially was very nice and responsive throughout, but it ended there. The coordinator was beyond useless and their crew didnt take care packing furniture - at least 5 things were broken on arrival and lost my vacuum. Then they denied claims. The coordinator was beyond useless and gave constantly inaccurate updates - eventually movers arrived 2 weeks past when I was told.

Moving season is coming up and I need to warn everyone about Morse Moving and Storage. Absolutely the worst moving company I've ever used! They damaged an entire bedroom set and scratched up several other items. When I went through the process of making a claim, the settled for literally pennies on the dollar. I literally tipped the movers more than I got back for trashing my belongings! Do not use this company!!

James, I’m really sorry to hear about your experience with Morse Moving and Storage. It's clear how frustrating it must have been to deal with the damages and the claims process. We value your feedback .

1-star Google reviewColin M.a year ago
Terrible. We packed everything ourselves. It was in good condition. We paid for the insurance. Very expensive items were broken and lost. They denied the claims to cover it. Workers were drinking and smoking weed. We move every few years, so lots of experience. Worst of the worst.

Colin, I’m truly sorry to hear about your experience and the issues you faced with your items and claims. Your concerns are valid, and I understand how frustrating this must be, especially when you’ve moved often and expect a certain level of service.

5-star Google reviewZee F.3 years ago
Just used their service. I have moved several times and was very impressed. Tom and Robert were very professional, very careful with items, and arrived on time. Beyond expectation put every thing together. If you want a move with no stress I highly recommend the company.
5-star Google reviewClayton B.2 weeks ago
We’ve used Morse twice now. One to move out of our house into a temporary apt during a new build process and the next to move into our new build. We had two different crews and were very professional, friendly and worked efficiently, even when we threw some curveballs at them (large furniture, multiple stops etc). Can’t thank Morse enough for making a normally very stressful process anything but. Highly recommend to anyone in need of moving services

Thank you, Clayton! We truly appreciate your kind words and are glad to hear that both moving experiences went smoothly. It's great to know our teams were professional and efficient, even with the challenges. Your recommendation means a lot to us!

I spent a lot of time coordinating with Morse moving and found them very professional, informative and responsive. We unfortunately had a change of plans and could not go through with the move, but I would definitely use them in the future.
5-star Google reviewElyse L.a month ago
TJ and his crew were amazing helping me with my move. They worked swiftly and got all my items out of my old place and into the new one much faster than I had anticipated! They treated my items with care and were so creative with getting things into difficult doorways. Thanks so much!!
