To: Ram, Cesar, and the NorthStar Moving team,

My name is Stephen C. and I want to thank you so much for your incredible kindness and your big hearts for dogs. We are beyond grateful for all of your help picking up so many pallets of dog food and helping us get them into the hands of rescues in our community who need them most. Your generosity, time, and love for animals make such a difference. We truly couldn’t do what we do  without your continued support and dedication. 

From all of us and Paws for Life, and especially all the happy pups whose bellies you’ve helped fill, 
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts,
Sincerely, 
Stephen C.

Dear Ram, Cesar, & the NorthStar Moving team,

My name is Roberto C. I’ve been training dogs for almost 3 years. I’ve got about 15 dogs in training. I feel myself so grateful and thankful. I love dogs. I also have much patience. I always try to do my best so all these dogs can have a better life out there with their families.
I wanted to thank you for all your support, help, dedication and generosity. We really appreciate it. We truly couldn’t do what we do without you. Thank you very much. May god bless you. 

With much respect,
Roberto C.

Dear Ram, Cesar, & the NorthStar Moving team,

Thank you so much for  your incredible kindness and your love for the dogs! We are beyond grateful for all of your help picking up so many pallets of dog food & helping us get them into the hands of rescues in our community who need them most.

It is only because of your help and people like you that our program is able to function. It is amazing to see dogs like Peter Parker, the service dog I’m training, enter the program afraid from their past life experiences and transform into the friendly, happy dogs they are meant to be.
Working with dogs has taught me what it is like to be of service to others. This has helped me build stronger relationships with my family and people in the community. At first it seems like we are only helping these dogs. But I learned that Paws for Life and these dogs have helped to heal me and turn me into the man I am meant to be.

Thank you for your support,
Sincerely,
Carlos M.

 

Dear Ram, Cesar, & the NorthStar Moving team,

My name is Byron C., and I am one of the service dog trainers, and on behalf of Paws for Life K9 Rescue, I’d like to say thank you so much for your incredible kindness and your big hearts for dogs! We are beyond grateful for all your help picking up so many pallets of dog food and helping us get them into the hands of rescues in our communities who need them the most.

Your generosity, time and love for animals make such a meaningful difference. We truly couldn’t do what we do without your continued support and dedication.

At the moment I’m training a Golden Retriever names Scout He graduates in November. He is very smart. This program has helped both of us. He gets a second chance of being loved by a family, and I get a second chance at being responsible.

It’s because of people like you we do what we do.

Thank you!
Sincerely,
Byron & PFL Team.

 

Dear Ram, Cesar, & the NorthStar Moving team,

My name is Jesse A., I’m a service dog trainer with Paws for Life in the prison dog training program. 

The reason for this letter is to extend my gratitude for your great kindness and support in our life saving mission. Your love for animals has impacted many critical parts of our mission, especially rescues in our community who need them most.

I first hand get to experience how your generosity and time make others’ life easier. Here at the program I’m actually in charge of feeding our shelter and service dogs. Your work and kindness provide us one less worry about how we’re going to get food to our dogs.

From all of us in Paws for Life and our communities, thank you. It’s very much thought about and appreciated.

Right now I’m finishing up training a beautiful Labrador Retriever/ Golden Retriever names Scout. He’s extremely intelligent and handsome! He’s so smart, we’re amazed how quickly he was able to learn everything. In four months he was able to have him ready for a US veteran and in November he’ll be going to his forever home.

Once again, thank you, and continue being incredible human beings!
Sincerely,
Jesse A. C.

I just wanted to take a moment to thank you so much for yesterday. We are absolutely overwhelmed with gratitude for you sending out a truck and movers, they were incredible.

The guys were so professional, thorough, and quick. They made everything so easy and seamless, and we truly cant thank you enough. I know for myself, I will absolutely be using NorthStar Movers moving forward, and I’ll be sure to spread the word to all my friends.

It means the world that companies like yours step up to support people in times of need. It’s really beautiful, and we’re so appreciative.

Thank you again!

Our firm has worked with NorthStar Moving and Ram Katalan since 2006 on (so far) four moves.  We expect to have three more moves to various warehouses over the next month or so.

I believe our first move went from a 30,000 sq. ft. building to 50,000; and it involved furniture, pallets, shelving, etc. for ~ 50 employees and from a two-story building with no elevator.   Our second  and third moves involved over 20 people and ~12,000 sq. ft. of warehouse inventory from a few different locations.

Today I worked with Ron Cohen and Pedro in a move comprising ~ 20 people and their furniture, shelving, pallets galore, etc. from one of our buildings to another.    Although we scoped the job months ago, NorthStar somehow came together on one week’s notice and did this move for us without a hitch — on time, on budget, no issues whatsoever, and everyone was lovely to work with.  

We have ALWAYS had a wonderful experience with NorthStar, and I call them whenever we have requirements.   When you have a good experience over and over, you certainly don’t want to make changes.

I also love that they’re a local firm to our business in Chatsworth, are a good neighbor and steward in the community, and they try their best to please.

Superb, very hard working moving crew! Thank you Nick / Ruben / Javier!!

Moving is very stressful, especially when you have about 3000 sq ft warehouse inventories.
(Even my staffs were getting stressed out just thinking about moving all the stuff lol)

Though I felt it would take the entire day to move, I had to book (3 movers, 1 truck) for Saturday afternoon since morning was already booked.
I’m sure they were at least a bit tired since it’s not their first job of the day.
However, they were very professional and moved all items safely w/o damaging a single item.

Even though most items were boxed, there were still quite a lot of things that we gave up boxing.
And Nick’s crew wrapped/boxed everything safely for us including tons of metal pieces from our heavy duty shelving units.

Nick’s crew (Nick, Javier, and Ruben) are hard working pros.
While I felt tired just watching them move our things, Nick didn’t give up on showing his positive work ethic which I appreciated a lot.
I also shared my worries about the possibility of the fee ending up more than I expected prior of moving. And Nick responded they’ll try to work fast & safe to not go over my budget. (He also assured me several times during the move) And as he mentioned, the moving fee didn’t go over my budget.

My staffs and I still can’t believe the move was completed in 7~8 hours.
While moving itself is stressful and I felt sorry for making Nick, Javier and Ruben move lots of heavy stuff, it turned out as a pleasant experience and I really really appreciate all of them for their hard work and professionalism.

I hope not to move anytime soon with heavy loads of stuff again. But I would definitely ask for Nick’s crew if I need to and recommend them for anyone trying to move their stuff safely.
Thanks again Nick, Ruben, and Javier!

They were on time, super friendly and it was seemless!  Best in town for sure.  We have used them for several moves in the past 2 years and had them store some items as well.  All was handled so beautifully.
