I’ve moved over ten times and never in my life considered getting movers. This past move, I decided that I was done disassembling and moving my own furniture — especially because I was moving during a pandemic and convincing friends with beer and pizza wasn’t an option. Enter Northstar! It was genuinely an amazing experience. They were communicative at every stage and I was amazed at how fast they wrapped things and loaded the truck. My partner and I were moving in together and it was seamless to add another stop to this move. Overall, such a weight off my mind and allowed me to organize the other parts of the move.
Residential
Used Northstar today for our move. Cannot say enough good things about the three guys (Carlos, Leo, Ignacio) that helped with the move. They were very professional, treated our possessions as if they were their own and helped with random things that came out without hesitation. Will use again!
This is the third time I’ve used NorthStar. I didn’t even price anyone else this time because they did such a good job the last two times. Cesar V., Daniel and Jose were great! They were super efficient with time and took good care of my stuff. We were just moving down the hall to another apartment and they kept to the price and time estimate I received, which I really appreciated. I highly recommend NorthStar and will use them again next time we move.
We just moved down to La from Oakland and our movers were glorious. We were informed well in advance when our items would get picked up and they did their job quickly and swiftly with no problems. They take your items, write them on a list -in which we keep- weigh them & wrap them up very well and once they bring it up they will unwrap everything and take all of their trash with them. They came nice and early and did not have any issues bringing all of our items up even with a difficult way to get it through the door of our awkward apartment. Teddys Team was a great help and I would recommend them to everyone. They were humorous, made us comfortable to joke with them. I was holding the gate for them to bring the stuff up the stairs and one of them insisted that he taped the door open so I won’t have to stand there the entire time, I definitely didn’t mind holding it but they really want you to just sit back and relax while they take on all the work. Another plus was that my friend and I were expected to have to put our beds and such together once they finish but when they brought everything up he gladly let us know that they will be setting our house up for us. They kindly asked where everything should go as they brought things and and quickly put everything together. Honestly a great company, very trustworthy and I can tell they love what they do and just want to meet everyone’s satisfaction.
I’ll begin by saying Northstar Moving Company is the BEST, from A to Z! Our move was from Oakland to Santa Clara, CA on July 20, in the midst of the Coronavirus pandemic and went without the slightest glitch!
Due to the nature of our work we move around quite a bit, 37 moves and counting to date!) and know good and meticulous movers and office staff when we see and speak with them. NSM are top notch from the first call you make, and while the level of difficulty during these Covid times complicates matters a bit, the exceptional office staff goes above and beyond to facilitate matters with online, phone and virtual assistance! The crew was extremely cautious practicing social distancing and wearing masks. The wonderful reviews are certainly justified, to say the least!
Everything during our movie was seamless. The movers were punctual, courteous, pleasant, methodic, expeditious, TIDY, excellent listeners and hard working beyond belief! They worked like clockwork! A HUGE shout out and tons of gratitude to our fabulous crew, Carlito, Jessi, David, Noe who had to deal with a few wild “apartment community” regulations from our move out location, and yet, handled everything with the utmost professionalism. Hopefully, I wont need to move anytime soon, but, if and when I do, NSM will DEFINITELY be my choice. It doesn’t get any better! Our items and furniture were perfectly packed and protected and arrived at our new home in perfect condition in a timely fashion. The crew was courteous enough to also help with disassembly and assembly of certain items! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Second time I used them. Not cheap but they are honest and good people. No surprises.
We had an excellent moving experience with Carlos, Ignacio and Leo at Northstar. Everything about our short distance move went as well we could have hoped for – the team moved very fast taking a lot of heavy furniture up and down stairs, took great care to ensure both our belongings and home were not damaged, and even used tape to take dust off the bottom of our furniture to make sure our new home started off on the right foot. They were able to disassemble all of our furniture and appliances (e.g. Peloton, multi-piece bed frame) properly and quickly. Additionally, all three team members were very friendly and kind.
The rates were competitive compared to other quotes that we received, and the company continues to operate through the pandemic with all three movers wearing a mask for the duration of our move. Would highly recommend Northstar (and particularly Carlos, Ignacio and Leo) and would definitely work with them again for our next move.
I had less than 2 weeks to find movers and luckily came across Northstar. My move was this past weekend and I was lucky enough to have Kyle and his team help me out. They were so super nice and ready to work. It was HOT here in Phoenix but the team was efficient at getting the job done. I’ve never had a move where no scratches or damage was done… until now. They took great care of my things which I greatly appreciate. There was a small hiccup with my bed and the manager himself came out the very next day to adjust my bed. Because they did so well my mom will be using them once her house is done being built and they’ll be my exclusive moving company going forward. THANK YOU Kyle, David, and the rest of the team. You made a stressful process a lot easier.
Northstar Moving Company in Chatsworth, through Ron Cohen, moved my family between apartments in Marina del Rey. To prepare, Ron did a video chat review of our furnishings to come up with an honest budget. Yesterday, Ron’s crew, Alessio, Jimmi C., Jorge and Erik, masterfully packed and moved our furniture, belongings, potted plants, closets, beds, chairs, etc. Although the apartments were nearby each other, they padded and packed and moved everything we designated with Ron in advance. His crew even figured out how to carry a table up through the stairwell to the 6th floor because it didn’t fit in the building elevators. On time and on budget and all with a smile. If you need a moving company, you can do no better than Northstar!
Very strong recommendation: they were professional, prompt, easy to work with, reliable. This was my best moving experience.
