Excellent company to work with–very professional, courteous people starting with the owner and down to the actual moving guys. Worked with them on a couple of occasions including same day move. No hidden fees or charges–what you are quoted is what you get. Thanks Ron for a great service!

Factor, Jonathan and Guido did an incredible job moving us from our 2 bedroom apt into our new house. They were able to get everything moved carefully and efficiently in under 4 hours.  Everything was done impeccably.  Thanks fellas.

This was the best moving experience I’ve ever had with movers, and I have moved A LOT. Factor, Will, and Chris were the three man team that conducted my local move from a one bedroom apartment to putting all my furniture in a storage unit. They showed up on time and were very pleasant and polite. Even though I paid by the hour, they were very fast and very careful (they had all furniture shrink-wrapped and loaded onto the truck in one hour). It was very evident that they were experienced. Getting my furniture into my tiny storage space was like a challenging tetris puzzle, but Will and Factor had some type of visual-spatial gift that helped them work it out. I’m not sure I could have done it without them. The appointment and office staff were very friendly and upfront with the charges so there are no surprises when you go to pay. I will definitely use NorthStar again for my next move, and I will be requesting the same awesome team: Factor, Will, and Chris.

I think if you take the Real Age test online, moving adds a year to your life. Moving is awful. “Soul sucking” might be the most apt term to describe the whole experience. But, if you have to move, NorthStar is the best option for professional movers in the Bay Area. I requested several quotes from various moving companies. North Star was the first to respond–and they offered the lowest quote. Other companies charge the same hourly rate, but tack on a hefty gas fee. NorthStar doesn’t. With the yelp deal, NorthStar comes out to be a much better deal than any other mover I saw. Their customer service was consistently extremely good. And the movers themselves are polite, professional, and efficient. These guys were awesome. Although I paid for a three man crew, they threw in a fourth mover free since he was working on a larger job later in the day.  I’m also pretty sure they generously underestimated the drive and move time total (California law requires that they charge double drive time. When I learned this, I threatened yet again  to move to New Hampshire. Live free or die, baby). I paid the 3 hour minimum for my move from San Mateo County to Marin County. 

If you want to mnimize the stress of moving, save yourself some time and book NorthStar–it isn’t even worth the time to research other movers.

These guys were fast, efficient, helpful and the price was totally reasonable. The foreman Tao (sp) was wonderful…they were on time and didn’t waste any of my time….helped me put things together and were very understanding. Would absolutely use them again.   Made me take notice of any damage that my furniture had already sustained so not to blame them and were very accommodating.

Great moving experience.  From the beginning to the end, the crews were honest and courteous. They called the day before the move to confirm the time window when they’ll be arriving.  On the day of the move, they called again to let me know when the estimated time they were arriving. Tim and the crew were fast and efficient in loading and unloading the furniture, appliances and boxes. I used yelp coupon with no issue at all.  I’ll look for them again when I move again.  Peter S.

Our North Star crew did a fantastic job yesterday!! We had two large storage units and a 2 BDR apartment to load for a move into a house. Jason and his crew of three other men showed up at the storage units on time, and even a little early, on a Saturday morning! This crew worked tirelessly all day, carrying heavy furniture and boxes up and down 4 half-floors. The scheduler in the office was great in helping us estimate using 2 trucks and 4 men for the move. Exactly what we needed!

This crew was careful and respectful of our things and really worked well together. Couldn’t be happier with a moving company and will use them again for any local move we might have. Definitely recommend this company!!
