Honestly, I was preparing to be let down, given the high ratings, it seemed to good to be true.

But it was just as great as described. From initial phone call to completion, everything was taken care of. The staff was polite and careful with the equipment, and this was absolutely the easiest move I’ve had. 

Needless to say, at the VERY reasonable prices, I won’t ever been moving myself again. Thanks NorthStar!

Finally, Wendy Paola was nothing short of amazing. She told me exactly what to expect, setup the time, and basically took care of everything. Ask for her if you get the opportunity and she’ll take great care of you!

PLEASE STOP AND READ THIS REVIEW ABOUT NORTHSTAR MOVING COMPANY…… I recently moved from SF to NYC and contacted Northstar after reading about them on line (Yelp, BBB, Moving http://info.com, etc). When researching a moving company it is hard to disseminate one from another; there are always mixed reviews. Well, that’s where I come in. I have 3 things to say about Northstar: Wendy, Assi and Fausto. Wendy, the “woman behind the curtain” promised me the world; Assi, the appraiser delivered it (outbidding 3 other companies), and Fausto, the foreman, made it all happen. The entire team was spectacular, especially Fausto (lip service is easy from corporate; it’s the actual movers who can make or break the experience). Fausto made me feel like I was at a Ritz Carlton. “As you wish” he said to me for 48 hours while packing my 2500 sq foot flat, as I asked him to “do this” and make sure he “does that”. My expectations were beyond exceeded and I have never experience d such professionalism with a moving company prior ( NorthStar actually had 2 manager s come in to pack my fine china and art). I am not a Yelper but this experience could not go untold. They are a 5 star company.

NorthStar Moving Corp, and Gadi Avigzer are the MOST AMAZING team of professionals.  I have now had the pleasure of using them three times over the past several years – back and forth between SF and LA, and again within the LA Area.  Each time, the team, service, care, and efficiency was unparalleled.  I am continually grateful to Gadi and his team who have made the stress ofmoving almost painless.  WOW!  I highly recommend Gadi and NorthStar! Thank you

I was very impressed. The movers were quick, efficient, and very careful with my belongings.  Wendy, in the main office was amazing in helping me and scheduling my move!  Someone recommended this company to me and I would do the same.  Prices were very reasonable.

Moving is the most painful process ever and hiring NorthStar was the best decision we ever made! They were AMAZING. We moved from a 2 bedroom apartment (on the 5th floor, down the hallway, through a courtyard). They send 3 movers and they made the move effortless. The were efficient and on top of everything. When we got to to our new place, they unloaded all the boxes and placed them in the rooms that they belong. Oh and a huge plus, they provided unlimited apparel boxes, and transferred all my clothes into the closet..no messy clothes on the floor! I love it! I highly recommend hiring NorthStar.

I recently moved with NorthStar for the third time and once again found their service exceptional. They definitely live up to their high rating with the Better Business Bureau. From the office staff to the 3 man team sent to assist in our move on each occasion was courteous and helpful. I would recommend NorthStar to ensure your move is seamless and less stressful.

First off, I’m sure I’m not in the minority when I say I hate moving.  I hate every aspect of the process, especially the lugging of crap up and down stairs or through round about ways to get to an elevator.  I hate it, put me in Gitmo instead…

That said, I highly recommend NorthStar if you’re like me and the thought of calling up family and friends to invite them to help move makes me shudder and gives me hives.

I did my research and called around, I compared this and that and in the end, I feel I had made the absolute right choice.  I got quotes from FlatRate and it came out to $510 and they took of $50.  It was tempting as I wasn’t sure what the final outcome with NorthStar was going to be, and I definitely had a budget of $500 in mind.

My sales person was Samantha and she was great.  Part of the sales pitch or not, she was excited to help me move.  Which made me feel eased.  She wasn’t pushy and when I asked for a lower rate, she was more than willing and understanding.  You never know unless you ask.  I had my concerns at first, I assume sometimes when you ask for a lower rate, something is going to give somewhere.  I had the nightmare that the movers showing up late, dilly dallying and taking their time to make up the difference ect.

But no worst case senario happened.  The movers showed up a bit earlier, loaded up and packed things as needed, didn’t graze any walls and were very careful with everything.  No damage to my belongings, the apartment, the building and especially no damage to my back.  The move took them 1 hour to load, and about 2 hours to unload in the proper areas.  Let me tell you, the pathways from the apartment to the truck and then the truck to the new place were not easy treks.

So it roughly took them 3 hours to load and unload.  Quick considering the last two times, it took myself and 4 other members of my family 12 hours to do that…

I unfortunately don’t remember the three guys that moved me, but they were all awesome.  No effing around like my brothers and their friends. ha ha.

Oh yeah, the cost?  Flat Rate had me moving for $510 right?  NorthStar’s bill came out to under $390.  Which included materials and the 1 hour drive time.

So final words, you can spend $150 and rent a U-Haul, materials, get no waredrobe boxes, fill up the gas tank, call up friends and family, and unpack and rehang your clothes and get things close to done 10 hours later and then complain about your back.

or

Spend some a little bit more and get it all done and put the liability on someone else and get it done in under 4 hours.

I slept well that night, without a sore back and my girlfriend didn’t have to hear me whimper from pain in my sleep.

Samantha and NorthStar – FOR THE WIN!!!

We used NorthStar Moving Corp for the 2nd time to make the big move from a rental to our own house. Once again, we were beyond happy with the service. The 3 men that arrived were very kind & professional, and they all worked extremely quickly. We had our rental house to clear out as well as 2 storage units, and they took care of it all in a timely fashion.

Everything was transported in perfect condition – no damage to any of our stuff. They took the time to organize boxes they way we wanted, and they even took apart our bed-frame which wouldn’t fit through the door (we built it in the room).

They’re prices are reasonable, and anyone who is less expensive is probably cheaper for a reason. I would absolutely recommend NorthStar for any move. Everyone I have dealt with from there has been courteous, professional and efficient.

I just recently moved with NorthStar Moving and it was amazing!

I have used NorthStar Moving two times in the past, and as a loyal client and big fan I knew that I could trust them with something as valuable as my family’s move. We recently had a baby, and with an expanding family, moving became both necessary and more challenging. However, from the first call to the last few boxes, their service was exceptional! The movers worked hard, the office team followed up throughout the move, we felt like the move was just as important to them as it was to us. We moved locally within the same neighborhood, but I don’t think I could have done it without NorthStar Moving. This was definitely the best moving experience ever! In these tough economic times you have to make sure you get value for what you are paying for, and I am happy to say that my move with NorthStar Moving is definitely worth it. Not only did they get the hard work taken care of, but they gave my family and me peace of mind, which in a move is priceless. I am such a big fan, I want everyone to try them, so I’m posting this review on every internet review site I can think of! Thank you NorthStar!

Thanks to Yelp I found a moving company in NorthStar that I could trust with my belongings. I have no complaints, (though I had everything boxed up and ready to go when they arrived so I can’t speak to their actual small item packing abilities) they helped my move go smoothly by taking my heaviest, most cumbersome items on a short, three mile move. That way I saved my back a little pain and they were able to come in, quickly load up my larger furniture and I think even they were surprised how quickly the process went. 

They were professional, prompt and I didn’t notice any damages. Their customer service (led by Wendy on the phone when I called for a reservation) was friendly and personable, and made me feel that I could trust them.
