Accommodated our just-before-Christmas move with about 3 weeks’ notice. Showed up earlier than promised. Did not complain about moving stuff in light rain. Did not complain about moving heavy washer/dryer from a 2nd floor location of the old house to a 2nd floor location at the new house. Wrapped furniture carefully. Sent an extra guy because one of the movers was feeling sick. All in all, no complaints.
We checked out two moving companies and Northstar offered the best service and price for the job. Ron was our contact person and came out and gave us our estimate. He did a great job in outlining all the details and how things would go. Everything went so well, just as he had said. The moving crew worked so well together, they were quick and careful with our belongings. The move came in under the estimate, which we greatly appreciated. I hope we don’t move again, but if we do, Northstar will be the one we’ll use.
1 star for being on time. 1 star for wrapping everything quickly 1 star for moving everything quickly 1 star for great attitude and customer service 1 star for decent price total = 5 stars
The bad news: I had to move twice twice this year. The good news: I used Northstar Moving twice this year. After a great experience with Northstar in June, it was a no-brainer which company I’d call in December to help again. Moving still sucks, but with Northstar, I don’t have to worry about the heavy stuff, protecting furniture, transportation, or loading/unloading everything. * Get the Yelp Deal: $50 for $125 of service. * Hourly rate for 3-man crew was $115/hr (3 hr min + 30 min drive time min) * Service on the phone was quick and easy. Email confirmation even easier. * Box up as much as you can before they arrive to speed things up. * Wardrobe boxes are provided free. So wait for most of the clothes on hangers * Tape & Shrinkwrap isn’t free or very expensive. NorthStar charged about $45. * The crew brought plenty of packing blankets to protect all the furniture. * They take care of taking apart and putting back together beds, tables, etc. * Biggest tip: Donate or give way a bunch of stuff you don’t use to save time/space. * Giving water and tipping was worth it because the guys were fast & efficient. * 3% discount for Cash, but cards are accepted. * Our move time was 5 hours 30 minutes. I can’t imagine it being any faster or easier. Hopefully, we won’t be moving anytime soon, however, if we do, I’ll be calling Northstar Moving again.

Northstar made my move super easy. The movers took good care of my furniture, were on time, and were friendly. They wrapped everything that was in question carefully. The representative I spoke with was so professional she made the entire experience a pleasure. Their prices are very competitive. I’ll definitely use them again.
Ron Cohen came to my apartment and went through all the contract details and appraised my move. He was honest and thorough, and I would definitely recommend working with Ron and Northstar — I had a wonderful experience!
Yes, the reviews are very true! These guy rock! They not only for me personally, my clients hire them to move huge estates for reality shows. I am beyond satisfied with NorthStar, and so are my clients. Professionalism. Courteousness. Careful with your personal belongings. Always fair in their quotes. I am beyond satisfied. If you are moving, hire these guys, you will not be disappointed. Promise.
Adding my five stars to the pile NorthStar already has. From the quick and accurate quote, to the flexible dates and times, to the on-time arrival, the impressive speed and care given to our items, to the very fast turn-around, the five stars are more than deserved. The crew was courteous and professional throughout. Thanks to Dalybanez, Luis and Anthony for a job well done!
