I was a little suspicious of all the good reviews on Yelp, but bought a deal (the one on Angle’s list is better–if you’re a member, buy that one…) and tried them anyway.  And wow–they were amazing.  I have a piano, and lots of stairs on both ends of the move, so they sent four guys.  The last time I moved with perhaps even less stuff, my move took about 6 hours.  When they arrived, they had me sign an estimate that it was going to take 8 hours and cost over $1000.  I was like “Holy #%$!! I should never have hired this company.”

I was also completely unprepared for this move, and had several things that weren’t packed, that I was planning to pack while they were moving the furniture.  The move, however, was a whirlwind.  Somehow they got everything packed away into wardrobe boxes and wherever, and seriously–my whole entire 2 bedroom apartment was out and in their truck in an hour and fifteen minutes.  Insane.  I was out of breathe just from watching.

At my new place, I’d just had it carpeted with white carpeting.  They covered it carefully with plastic tape and got everything in quickly.  Entire moved happened in about 4 hours.  I couldn’t believe it.  And it was 1/2 the price of my last move.  And, unlike my last move, nothing got broken or dinged (at least not that I’ve found yet).  I would definitely hire these guys again.
After researching many different moving companies, I decided to go with NorthStar and I am so glad I did. With the Yelp deal, it is much cheaper than the other moving companies, so save yourself some time and just book with them!  Also, the movers are really friendly and efficient, making the whole process very smooth.  

I highly recommend these guys – they know their stuff!
Fast, efficient, honest.  Moving precious cargo to a brand new home is a stressful time; NorthStar made it a breezy experience so I could step back and get excited about the new chapter in my life.  Good value, great guys, I felt like I was in good hands.
I have used Northstar Movers twice: Once in town between Venice and Culver City and the second time moving across country from LA to NYC. I shopped around quite a bit and both times they had good prices compared to other companies. The guys that packed my stuff and wrapped my furniture were REALLY diligent. Even moving across the country, everything got in here in perfect condition and nothing was missing! It’s always scary trusting a company with all your stuff and they totally came through.
I have moved so many times in my life – domestically and internationally – and this was probably the easiest move I have ever done.  Hands down.
The team were on time (early in fact, which was fine by me), helpful, polite, friendly and FAST!!
The team was able to overcome some (silly!) obstacles imposed by my prior housing complex without causing any delay to the move, itself.
Will definitely use them again.

They gave us the best quote of the six moving companies that had quoted us and did an amazing job. I moved across the country with two kids under three, by myself, with a month of storage needed. They were incredible, timely, helpful, professional and made the move as easy as it could be.

This moving team was outstanding, from the estimate all the way through to the finish! 

We called them in last minute to move our family run business when it became clear that the original (and landlord recommended) moving company (American Relocation & Logistics) was WAY over charging us. 

Fortunately for us, Northstar gave us a fair estimate AND got it done in half the time and for HALF the price the other company quoted. 

Great company!
First time moving within the city (San Francisco), and completely amazed with how quick, efficient, careful, and friendly the moving crew was! Plus, I really appreciate that they reuse things like wardrobe boxes – that way, you can hang up your clothing and coats, and place any loose items on the bottom, without having to pay for additional moving boxes. Wonderful service, and I strongly recommend their services for any local or long distance move!
