OMG!!! Didn’t have to worry….. Moving is so stressful, but not with NorthStar Moving. Ron came by and gave us an estimate; the movers (Tony’s crew) came by on time on Saturday; done in adequate time and very professional and friendly. Living comfortably within 3 days. Thank you NorthStar!!!!!!
Local Move
I did some research online and went with NorthStar based on their positive Yelp reviews. The team arrived on time and were extremely professional, fast and courteous. It was a really amazing moving experience overall and I would highly recommend NorthStar to anyone!
The movers were extremely professional, careful, and FAST. Very efficient team. I would highly recommend this company.
I’ve moved 6 times in the last 8 years so I know pretty much everything that can and does go wrong in a move.
This time around I was moving from Los Feliz to Santa Barbara. Since this was more than just a simple local move I wanted to make sure I chose well.
Barak showed up at my house for an estimate, made everything extremely easy to understand regarding the process and even though it was a bit higher than I expected I at least understood why and agreed.
The movers showed up on time, were extremely friendly and hard working. At the end of the day they finished well under the estimated time frame, didn’t break anything except for a super cheap Ikea curtain rod that I didn’t want anyway and the cost came in well under the estimate. I gave them a super fat tip and called it a day.
These guys are honest and ethical…something movers aren’t exactly known for.
Bravo Northstar!
Thanks to Ram and his crew for moving my home staging inventory from two different locations to my new warehouse. It was a long day, but everything got there in one piece and the customer service was amazing. I always refer NorthStar to my staging clients who need professional moving services and I’ve never had one complaint! Great job!
Thanks to Yelp for helping me find a GREAT moving company! We found the service to be fast, effective and generally awesome. The rep I worked with, Ron Cohen, came out to do an estimate and made life very easy for us. The movers were amazing! They never slacked, moved quickly and effiecently while ensure that all my stuff arrived and was unpacked safely!
All in all a great experience!
I used NorthStar movers to help me my family move. I was especially concerned because my wife was pregnant and I didn’t want her to do anything, and she really had to do very little.
They were on time, and immediately got busy. They were polite and hard working. The packaged everything well and securely, from clothes to kitchenware, TVs and furniture. Nothing was damaged.
They put everything in place and even helped put up paintings and racks….
By 8 o’clock that night we were completely moved in and settled, it would have taken us at least a month to take everything out of the boxes if we had been alone.
they were amazing
I found NorthStar Moving on Yelp when I was planning a local move in the San Fernando valley. The reviews were positive, so I decided to take a chance. I was glad I did! Ron Cohen, my relocation specialist, did a great job of helping me plan the move, explained the process, and provided an accurate estimate up front that I felt was very fair. We planned my move as a two-day move, with a pack on the first day and the actual move on the second.
On the packing day, the packing crew arrived, professionally dressed and on time, and after introducing themselves and my signing the paperwork, they immediately got underway. I was totally floored by how quickly, carefully and expertly they could pack a large filled residence. What would have taken me a month, they did in about 6 hours. Everything got plenty of protection, padding, paper, blankets, stretch-wrap, etc. They were conservative and used extra materials to make absolutely sure my fragile stuff would be safe. Every single one of them worked nonstop, diligently and with care. I don’t know where they get the energy – I was exhausted just watching them! Ron had arranged in advance for my couch, bed and a few necessities to remain unpacked until the next morning, so I didn’t have to get a hotel room. Very cool!
On the moving day, the same crew arrived, again professionally dressed and on time, and they got underway immediately. Again, I have no idea where these guys get so much energy. Without any delays, they carefully and expertly moved all my boxes, furniture, everything out to the truck, and were very careful in the way they packed the truck and where they put certain extra-fragile items. In no time at all, my residence was empty! They told me they would meet me at my new house – I had to do an errand first and would meet them there shortly.
While I was doing my errand, I got a call from the driver – there was a delay on the highway ahead (massive traffic pileup) and he was diverting to side streets, and suggested I do the same. I mention this because it was a really nice thing for him to do, saving me from getting stuck in traffic.
When we all arrived at the new house, the moving crew did an expert job of moving all of our stuff in. They set up the bed, helped us move furniture where we wanted it, super helpful! When it was all done, we tallied up the bill, and the total was slightly less than what was quoted me! That was a nice surprise.
I felt that everyone at NorthStar did a very professional job throughout my move, from Ron Cohen, who managed the whole experience and made it go smoothly from beginning to end, to the crew lead, who expertly led the packing and moving, to the packers and movers who packed and taped and moved the boxes and furniture. This was a hassle-free, relaxing and pleasurable move at a fair price – an extraordinary value.
These guys were great! I recommended them to a friend and she loved them too. The 3 guys were awesome – fast and careful. They understood that we wanted to finish quickly to keep the price down. Lynn scheduled the whole thing and was 100% on it from start to post-finish. The movers and I forgot to include my discount for using Yelp, and she gave it to me when I realized this a few days later!
When I recently moved I ran into a small problem with the movers that I had arranged and they fell through. It was the 1st, noon and every place I called was booked. After the panic subsided, I luckily stumbled upon Northstar and thank god. I was concerned at first because they were a little pricy but they had movers there within the hour and when it was all said and done it was worth every penny.
The guys wrapped everything in pads and shrink wrap, boxed up anything that was loose. They were really nice, worked hard and got the job done well. I actually went to the ATM to get additional tip money for on top of what I initially had planned on tipping, no joke.
Highly recommend.
