I loved the efficiency of this company. Contact was never lacking and pricing was straight forward. Jason and Ted are both super friendly and were very patient with me when I asked a billion questions. The 3 guys that moved us were hustling. Very nice guys and no dilly dallying. Everything made it safe and sound. I am surprised that they didn’t grumble once at how far the unloading dock was from the apartment on the 4th floor. I’d definitely recommend this company to anyone. Make sure you tell them you read about the company on yelp to get your discount.
I wanted to both commend and recommend NorthStar Moving Co for the outstanding job they did with my move on Mar 5th, 2011. I have made several residence moves in the past, not always with good results but Northstar exceeded my expectation. The positive experience started with the return call from their account rep, Kat, who was very professional and asked all the right questions. The quoted price was very fair and, as it turned out, an incredible deal. The moving team was very professional and focused on making sure that my possessions and property were well protected. They even had to carry furniture and appliances up a double flight of stairs and never hit the walls or banisters. Even when they finished, there was no damage at all. I would highly recommend them for any move contemplated and will use them again in the future.
in a word AWESOME. Gil prepared our “not to exceed” estimate and was freindly and very knowledgable. Truck and Richard H’s 4 man crew showed up on time and started immediately. They are a practiced and motivated team. They were careful with everything and did an amazing job packing the truck. Unloading went quickly and they placed items in our new home without asking. Move time went a little over ( we moved 65 miles ) and the “not to exceed” estimate was the cost we paid. Great moving team, great experience, great price. This is a satisfied customer who will definately use them for our next move. Thank you for an amazing relocation to our new home. Definately recommend this company and team.
super fast, hard-working, careful with our stuff and great communications with me while moving our household goods from 2 storage units over to our new house 8 miles away. had absolutely no glitches while moving everything. they had good mo-jo between one another, as they helped each other as needed…guys didn’t need to wait for the team leader to instruct them on what to do in various situations. worked 8 /12 hours to move our 4-bed, 2600 sq ft house full of stuff. price was extremely reasonable and included a truck and miles. supervisors speak great English and communicated well with the other men on the job. unbelievably careful with our higher valued items (paintings, furniture, antiques). i would highly recommend these guys to absolutely anyone.
I can’t say enough good things about NorthStar. They were so professional, both over the phone and in person…the 3 guys (yes, THREE guys, at the same price most companies quoted me for two) that showed up to move our stuff were super friendly, punctual, and efficient. They finished the move in record time, and the final charges were less than half of what we (over)paid the last time we relocated – AND we had much less crap that time around!!! Definitely recommend – great company.
I made a move from Los Angeles to Iowa about one month ago for a new job. My friends gave me multiple options- drive a U-Haul, ship my stuff via USPS, or hire movers. Having carried boxes and furniture up and down multiple flights of stairs in a recent move, I clearly remembered the body aches and pains I suffered in the days that followed. I decided that I was going to hire a moving company this time!! Since I had never hired a moving company, I had no clue where to start. I looked at many of the available companies and most of the quotes were similar. I went with NorthStar for the following reasons: they had good ratings and reviews and their representative, Kat, called me fairly quickly after my online quote inquiry. The communication with Kat was clear. I specified that I would like my belongings to be delivered during a certain time period and although she could not guarantee a delivery date, she said the driver would try his best to get my stuff to Iowa when I requested. I was in contact with dispatch and the driver of my belongings a few days before the delivery, 24 hours before delivery and also the morning of the delivery. My driver was excellent and moved ALL of my belongings up 4 flights of stairs by himself, and on the exact weekend that I had requested even though the weather was cold and snowy. All of my belongings were present and in the same condition as when I had last seen them. My bed had been wrapped well by the movers so that it would survive the trek. My driver set up my bed for me as well as the frame. Price was very reasonable and I was able to use my credit card for the transaction. I will definitely use NorthStar for any future moves.
I’m very pleased and satisfied with North Star Moving. We got a Not-To-Exceed estimate, and rather than going cheap/lazy, the 4 guys that they sent, went right to work, and worked well. We bought a few boxes, but they ended up giving them to us for free, and they also brought extra blankets, and a wardrobe. All in all, the actual price after the move came to be $200 less than the not-to-exceed price. Not bad…
This was far and away the best move I’ve ever had. I’ve moved a lot over the last few years, and NorthStar exceeded all of my expectations. The movers arrived promptly, worked quickly, and were helpful and pleasant. It wasn’t the easiest move either, as I moved into an apartment with a narrow staircase so much of my furniture had to be hauled over the patio deck and through the sliding glass door. All of my furniture was handled with care and they did not nick one single thing. I was completely moved into my new place within three hours. I couldn’t have asked for a better moving experience and will recommend them highly.
a job well done! estimate was for 6 hours and the job was done in 3. no breakages guys were very nice and professional. very helpful. hope to use you again when necessary. great job!
We were so impressed with this moving company! Being new to LA with every aspect of the city so foreign to us, it is hard to know who to trust. Luckily our daughter who lives in LA had used North Star to move both her business and homes. She gave them the highest recommendation, so we knew we would be in good hands and we were. They are prompt, right on time. They are amazingly fast and courteous. They are very helpful finishing all the things you think you’ve completed and realize you missed some items. They are very patient, as I’m sure they are used to dealing with a lot of the same issues all of the time. We have no complaints, only praise. They are very professional in the office as well. The contact person we dealt with was Kat Alexander and she kept us up to date from start to finish. She emailed us detailed costs, lists of things we needed to do to be sure we were ready, and reminders of the upcoming date. Her follow through was amazing. I would recommend this company to anyone, especially to newcomers to the area who can rest assured they are in very good hands. Honest, hardworking company that does what they say they will do. We will use them without hesitation for our next move. Thank You North Star for making our move so easy!!
