Can I just say NorthStar is amazing! If I could give them more stars I would. First of all Moving is such a pain anyway and this one was just pure stress. We had a date set and everything in motion except movers. We had called, emailed a bunch of places, and honestly I had had enough I wasn’t comfortable with anyone and they all seemed shady. My boyfriend then took over and within minutes sent me this link. I called and Spoke to Beatrice and immediately was at ease. She was so nice and informed me of everything you would hope a company would tell you even the “hidden” fees as you would say. Which they didn’t have any. They were Very honest.
We had an apartment set to move and the date then we lost the first place due to someone not wanting to leave and had to “settle” for another one. This pushed our move up 2 weeks, I called Beatrice freaking out nearly crying worried we would have to pay an extra fee because we had moved up our move, She told me not to worry they would work it out. She put me on hold for a few moments got on the line and assured me they could have 3 guys for me on the day and it WOULD NOT COST EXTRA!!!!! What!?
The moving day came and we had 3 guys Christian, Christo, and Jaime. Let me tell you these poor guys had stairs everywhere. Not one complaint out of there mouth! They smiled and were even joking with me throughout the process. They were all very nice and moved fast! We had them for 4 hours and I knew it
would be longer we had a ton of stuff and Heavy stuff at that. All in all it took about 7 hours and it costs us under $700. Honestly It was well beyond worth it! I cant imagine moving ourselves and NorthStar made the “MOVING” Part so easy and painless. Thank you so much. I am beyond grateful. Thank God m
Boyfriend found you guys I will so use you agan when we move next time and 1000% Recommend you! Thank you for Working with us and making the move easy… You’re the best!
Fantastic movers. Honest, reliable, and very fairly priced. Highly recommended. Thanks to Hannes, Orlando, and Eduardo!
Miguel and his team from Northstar Moving were AMAZING! I had to use them twice (first to move everything to storage and then for a second time to move everything into the apartment) and I couldn’t have been more pleased. They were friendly, very careful with my belongings, and were willing to help in any way they could.
After having many bad experiences with moving within SF, I was so happy to have such a positive experience with Northstar! I would definitely recommended to anyone moving within the city or if you need any help moving things into storage.
Northstar did a great job moving us over two days. Juan Alvarez, Cesser Mendez, Miugle r and Jose ocampo were fast, pleasant and so helpful. Really appreciate them making what is a stressful experience as manageable as possible.
Had 3 great guys take the pain out of an in-town move. The Northstar team was on time, professional, careful, and extremely helpful. There was one item that was too large for 3 guys to move, and instead of charging me for an additional move, they sent 4 guys and just charged for time. Very fair – very professional – very caring – very friendly.
I’m thrilled I found these guys here on Yelp. I am going to use them in the near future to move some stuff out of my garage.
Had my stuff in storage for nearly 8 weeks. Went from LA to NY Nd everything was smooth sailing! Nothing damaged or broken. Fairly fast packing and unpacking… Couldnt really fault it and the prices were really good!
33 minutes.
That’s how long it took for NorthStar’s 3 man crew to unload every damn thing I own from two moving crates, bring them up multiple flights of stairs, put them in designated areas of my apartment, assemble my bed, set up my TV, and have me sign all the appropriate paperwork.
33 MINUTES.
My whole life. Unfolding before my eyes in the same time it takes to watch an episode of The Bernie Mac show and go to the bathroom. It’s a little humbling, but a good sign considering my general hoarder tendencies.
An impressive feat it was, and it came at an even more impressive price thanks to a handy Yelp Deal they advertise where you pay $60 for $150 worth of service. Def get on that if you decide to go with NorthStar (and you should).
I was told there was a minimum amount of time that you pay for (2 hours, I think) and that 30 minutes of that time goes to account for their travel time to your place. In following those rules, I *should* have been charged more money (at least $120 more), but the super cool moving dudes didn’t see it that way (plus, I tipped them REALLY well), so they basically left it on a high note saying that the way things worked out, they should actually owe me money.
I guess not owning anything of value or quality finally came in handy since the nicest furniture I own is a cat tree followed by everything else made of particle board, which is pretty easy to move, if you’re a burly moving dude (apparently).
Setting up my move with Northstar (Lynn was my very helpful NorthStar agent) was easy peasy and I got lucky in being able to do it on less that 24-hours notice. The guys came right on time (like, they were supposed to arrive between 3:30 and 4:30 and they were there at 3:29) and were pros to every extent, including parking their MASSIVE truck on one the steepest hills I’ve ever seen. No joke, it was borderline jackknife situation.
The day after my move, Lynn from NorthStar called to make sure everything had gone well, and said my 3 moving men had asked her send some extra thanks my way for my generous tip, which was really nice to hear. I’d use NorthStar again in a heartbeat.
Bottom Line, there is no better moving company out there. Every time I use this company (over 10 times) they are professional, prepared and fast. The foremen that they use are all very professional and trained extremely well. The movers are all extremely hard workers. I don’t know where they find their employees, but they are extremely hard workers.
No matter what you throw at them, they are able to get it done! As a construction professional, we have done a number of complex moves, and they are always consistent.
Nervous about your move? Don’t be, there isn’t a more professional company out there. You call to schedule, then their office confirms the day before. Next up, the foreman gives you a not to exceed price before they start (!) and they meet it every time!
David L., our most recent foreman, and his experienced crew did a great job moving 3 storage units for us without any issues. David did a great job, as did each member of his crew.
Moved all of my furniture (from 2 different locations) into a storage unit in a little over 1/2 day with great care and customer service. I have moved several times in an out of my highrise condo and used other companies however NorthStar is by far the best. EXCELLENT customer service by David L., his friendly team and everyone from NorthStar. Can’t wait to use them again and you should too. You will be very happy!
Working with them was a great experience, and they provided excellent service through the pickup process. They were very flexible and accommodating with my inquiries on price, adding/removing items, and overall provided a great customer experience.
The movers, lead by Gustavo, did a fantastic job! Great customer service, very friendly, asked questions while they were moving items to clarify (if I wanted to pack this item with that item, etc), and managed the minor hiccups with grace and efficiency!
