So pleased with our smooth move, and very happy to recommend Northstar!
We chose Northstar for our move from San Francisco to Silverlake in Los Angeles.
(Jim?) Jose and Oscar came to help us pack up. They were all courteous, helpful and friendly and did a superb job of packing up our stuff safely. Everything arrived in one piece and Jose wrapped the plants from our deck most expertly.
A few days later and our stuff arrived in Los Angeles. We are located in a winding cul de sac, and warned Northstar it may be difficult to get the 25ft truck down our street. We were worried we would have to pay the extra charge for a small truck and extra people to relay our stuff. We needn’t have worried. SOMEHOW they managed to get the truck to our house, where once again the movers were superb. Super friendly, efficient and hardworking. As mentioned in another review, they even reassembled the bed without us asking. All in all Northstar were very easy to work with, and the guys that work for them exactly the kind of people you want helping you moving out and into your new home.

Moved from a 2 bedroom apartment to a new house this weekend. Tim, Manny and Jose took great care of our stuff and did the move fast. Northstar is also very reasonable in terms of price, especially for things like wrapping and protecting your furniture. Other places will totally rip you off with these hidden costs, but Northstar was very upfront and reasonable about it. If it ever comes time to move again, this is the company I’ll use!
Hi Stefy,
Please extend a big thank you to Jason and his team. One goes out to you as well for snagging us the last morning slot on March 1.
We seriously would not have been able to make our move without NorthStar.
Jason and the guys were prompt, friendly and explained every detail of the move – overall true professionals!
Hands down we would highly recommend NorthStar to friends and hire again if we are to ever move.

Sal, David and Oscar helped us move out of our apartment in the Peninsula to our new condo in South Bay. They were hard working and worked very quickly. Lynn helped us coordinate the move and was readily available and easy to communicate with.
Everything arrived at the condo in perfect condition. But what really impressed is that they reassembled our bed without us having to ask. Maybe this is standard but we really appreciated it. They also helped us transport donations to the Salvation Army.
All in all, we were quite pleased with the whole experience, especially for the price. Thank you NorthStar!
-Break down
-Wrap EVERYTHING (no im serious, everything…antique dining room table, king bed, antique secretary….)
-(we packed the boxes….but we were still helping pack when they were leaving)
-Move everything into the truck tightly
-Get everything out of the truck into the proper rooms to the third floor of a building with no elevator
-Work non-stop, take no breaks and have fun doing it the entire time.
At the end of the move I forgot to tell them I had a Yelp deal and they worked it in and even tried making sure I got the lowest rate I could. These guys were super super all stars and seriously worth every penny.
I had called Delancy and One Man and a bunch of other people, but listen — when it comes to moving your stuff — you want quality. Sure other people might quote you less, but the communication with these guys is awesome, they always email/call back and don’t ignore voice mail messages like some other people.
Plus this is now the 3rd time I had someone else tell me these guys are legit. 3 separate experiences by individuals who barely know each other and everyone says these are work super hard and do a great job.
Anna who helped me online was always very nice. She kept reminding me to leave this review and I did need reminding because they set me up so quickly and did everything so well I was able to jump right back into work without a second thought. So while it’s a bit late (my move was right after Xmas) I hope that this helps others understand just how awesome their customer service and moving team is. True Professionals.
OH OH OH …. hardwood floors. Presidio to Berkeley Condo….
These guys really tried to pay attention to NOT nic any floors or hurt the walls. ATTENTION to detail and moving fast? This crew deserves raises for sure.
