Yelp Review
North Star runs a great business. We’ve moved 6 times in the last 7 years and had varied experiences with various moving companies. NorthStar was a little more expensive from other services we considered however since “you get what you pay for” and we decided to go with them. Marlon, Aruthur, Angel were on time, organized and efficient. It was a very easy move from San Francisco to San Jose. And the back office was responsive to questions I had regarding additional insurance and scheduling questions. We would absolutely use them again.
Pro tip: Pay in cash for a discount!
Today was the big day for me and I had prepared myself by placing all of my personal belongings in boxes and bags to make it easier for the movers when they come. I had never hired movers before and I was so nervous. Living in Downtown La also meant that there wouldn’t be any street parking available. I had also contacted the Department of Transportation weeks in advance to block off 3 parking spots in front of my loft. They posted the signs 2 days earlier and it costed around $52.
At 8:00am, I had received a phone call for their ETA. Two big guys showed up and they were ready to help me make the move to Hollywood. They had their big truck, dollies, handtrucks, tape, boxes, seran wrap, blankets, etc. I loved how they carefully wrapped everything and took good care of my things!!! After they finished packing up everything into the truck, they came to my new place and unpacked everything for me and placed all of the furniture exactly where I wanted it.
I’m so grateful for these guys and NorthStar Movers for providing excellent customer service overall. If I ever have to move again, I know who to call. 🙂
The Northstar crew provided a solid 8 hours of hard work. They arrived on time, were super friendly and assisted me with my special requests. All of my items were professionally wrapped with blankets and handled with care. Not a ding, not a scratch. They are so reliable that this is my second time using them. I highly recommend them to everyone seeking local and long distance moves. Great job guys!
We will be using Northstar again for our next move.
Found them through yelp and called. They were thoroughly professional from the beginning. I liked how emphatically they promise no hidden charges. Everything was explained clearly. They also provide certificate of insurance that our building required. We were promised they would come between 8am and 10am — and they showed up with a truck bang at 8am. Also called us at 7:15am to give us a heads-up prior to arrival. There were two movers and they worked hard and very professionally. They ensured there was zero damage to our goods or the property. In 7.5 hours, they finished everything from packing, loading, driving from SF to Mountain View, unpacking and arranging stuff at the new apartment. Highly recommended!
Seriously the BEST moving company ever. Victor H ran the move and his assistants did amazingly. Not only were they super fast and efficient, they were incredibly professional and helpful with the move. They packed everything so nothing would break, brought everything in to my new place and set everything up. I’d recommend this team for any move…gave me peace of mind that everything made it in perfect shape from A to B.
It would otherwise be an extremely stressful day, and Edgar and team totally saved the day!
I had to move out of my temporary residence and combine with stuff from a storage unit and finally move to a house still under construction. I also have multiple piece of fragile items including a 55″ tv, several pieces of large backlit mirrors and an antique tansu chest that’s a bit wobbly. I lost sleep last night just thinking what could have gone wrong!
There came Edgar and crew, who patiently and expertly packed everything with care and moved with efficiency. Moreover, Edgar is more than communicative the entire time, letting me know where they are in the process and how much time is left before they are ready to roll.
Can’t be happier with their service and couldn’t recommend them more! There may be some less expensive options, but Northstar is worth every penny!
