I’ve used NorthStar for two moves now. They’re on time, courteous, didn’t break anything, and got the job done in under three hours, their minimum. Throw in a deal from yelp, and I’m completely satisfied. Thanks, NorthStar!
We moved from Los Angeles to the Bay Area. The quote given by all other movers was around $1700 – $2000. Guess how much it cost me when I considered using North Star Movers instead? $825 !! yep, less than half of what at least 4 other movers quoted!
These guys are very friendly, awesome group of young and energetic men, all wearing same dress and very professional. This is the 6th time I moved in the US, and the North Star movers are by far, I really mean, by far the best! 5 stars without a doubt!!!
Great guys, great service. We saved $90 with a coupon at it cost about $600. Totally worth it. Jose was amazing!
Great job from pick up to delivery! Customer service and moving crew were outstanding–very efficient and professional. I have shared my experience with my colleagues who are also planning cross-country moves. I know they will not be disappointed.
Moving is always a nightmare but the Northstar team made it one of the most pleasant experiences and non stressful moves ever. The team showed up promptly on both days of our move ready to work. They were conscientious about packing and moving all of our belongings (and there was a lot of it) from the Westside to our new house. Extremely professional and efficient. I would highly recommend them.
Incredibly efficient and treated my things with amazing respect. Well done!
Very professional in every respect. Making a reservation was simple. Movers called to say they were available early if we were ready, and they were flexible with starting early but not immediately. The move was seemless and quick. We couldn’t believe we’d done it all ourselves previously.
NorthStar did a fantastic job on our cross-country move, which involved moving all our worldly possessions from Santa Monica to Austin. Every single person I interacted with at the company was friendly, polite, and helpful. Our moving logistics were handled by Ron, who was good-humored, accommodating, and always very quick to respond my questions via e-mail. He came over to take a look at the items we were moving, and was very clear about how to prepare for the move as well as what limitations they had (no liquids that were unsealed/open, like my multi-gallon containers of soy sauce).
On moving day, a team of four movers showed up on time and completed the job in about 6.5 hours. They were quick, efficient, courteous, and hard-working. Just as importantly, they were very careful about protecting our stuff, ensuring that each and every item was adequately protected. We especially appreciated the care given to our 3D printer.
The move itself was pretty organized. We had something like 111 boxes/items, and they kept everything numbered and notated so that when those 111 boxes showed up at my new house in Austin four days later, I knew where each of them went.
We truly appreciated the hard work of everyone at Northstar who was involved in our big move, and would recommend them without hesitation.
Northstar is a FANTASTIC moving company. My sister and bro-in-law recommended them after they moved their 5 bedroom house across the country. I also did a cross country move and Northstar did an AMAZING job. They charged me 25% less than the national movers quoted me. The guys in LA were great – they were courteous and packed my things with care. The company communicated with me the entire journey across country and they delivered my things within the agreed upon window. The guys in Florida were also great. Nothing was broken or missing and the final bill was exactly what we agreed upon. These guys deliver on their promises. They are highly professional and they made this move painless and stress free. Thank you Northstar!
Moved me from the 6th floor of a condo high-rise to the 4th floor of a walkup + tiny elevator building. They brought 4 guys to pack & move – all were friendly and very professional when it came to the packing & moving. They packed & itemized immaculately, and everything arrived safely to its new home. Overall it took about 8 hours for a 2bd/2ba + time in transit. For the peace of mind, the price was well worth it! Would highly recommend them!
I used NorthStar to move from Los Angeles to Houston in May, and they were wonderful. Their estimate was very close to the actual price. They moved everything from my apartment and my storage unit into the the moving truck within a few hours; these guys work fast, but they were very careful. It took about 2 weeks for my belongings to be delivered, but absolutely nothing was missing or broken…and I had tons of breakables in the boxes. They were on time, very professional, and very friendly. I trust this company and would definitely use them again.
The movers were actually 30 minutes early on Saturday morning. They were very professional and quick to get going. They were extremely careful with our furniture and boxes. I would recommend Northstar Moving to any one looking for a move within SF.
We’ve moved three times using NorthStar. We will never use anyone else. Their representative, Gadi Avigzer, gave us a thorough and accurate estimate for the cost of our move. He also gave us helpful suggestions on how we might save money. Then, he sent out a crew that was hard working, careful, accomodating, and honest. I have lived all over the country, and I’ve moved about sixteen times. NorthStar and Mr. Avigzer are the most professional, reliable, helpful movers I’ve ever used. – Mary C
Crew arrived at 1045am yesterday which was delightfully ahead of the 12-6pm block previously quoted. Yesterday could have been a disaster with Carmageddon and the LA Triathlon, but Mike and his crew had me loaded up in 45min and unloaded at my new home in 15min. These guys are the best!
nothing short of 5 stars for these guys. From the day Ilan came over to give me a quote to the day the move took place it was all painless, stressless, and just overall great. I was quoted a not to exceed price which was great (so i knew i was protected in case of things running late), the movers came in and immediately got to work and had me in our new apt set up and ready to go all within 4 hours. These guys are great at what they do, they are highly professional, and courteous.
We used North Star to move a 2-bedroom from Playa del Rey to Torrance and were incredibly pleased. Not a single thing was scratched or broken. They took their time wrapping everything and handling everything with such care. All three of the guys they sent were very professional and friendly and helpful. We spent a little over $800 for the entire move including double drive time (which is standard with moving companies). That included a $50 off yelp deal. We would definitely recommend them and use them again in the future. Moving can be stressful but they did a great job of minimizing that stress and getting everything where it needed to go.
These guys were our heroes!!!! We had a three man team move from Glendale to an apt in West Hollywood and they were absolutely amazing. They were kind and helpful. They went above and beyond to help these first time movers and we couldn’t have been happier. They not only moved our stuff in but assembled some of our furniture!!! We were skeptical about paying for movers but it was 100% worth the money and more. We will never use another company other than NorthStar!
Whew! Moving sucks, we all know that, but NorthStar makes a stressful and hard job seem easy! Our four man team of Jose, Yoboni, Frank and Will were amazing, they were really friendly, fast, effiecient and made us feel confident that our stuff would get moved with no damage. I was impressed more and more as the day progressed and these guys kept working at a fast, efficient pace, one would be wrapping, one would be moving boxes, one would be taking apart furniture then when they all needed to help each other with large items they would come together and work as a team. Then once we drove an hour to the new house, they continued their work in the same manner as the first hour they started. I was tired of the move but they didn’t show any signs of fatigue or annoyance, sometimes even singing a little tune as they worked. IF you are on the fence about hiring a moving company, use this one! You will not be disappointed and even better… your expectations will be far exceeded by the team they send!
I’ve moved around a lot and dealt with many moving companies and this was by far the most pleasant experience. Kat over at the office was great, and the guys who packed and transported my belongings were quick and conscientious. I’ll be using them again for sure.
Very nice people from beginning to end. The movers (team of three) were great. They were moving a little slow in the morning, but picked it back up toward the end. I would suggest packing all of your belongings before they get there, unless you’re looking/willing to pay for more time and materials. We packed and they did our 450sqft apartment in about 2 hours. They delivered, unpacked and reassembled all of our stuff in about 1 hour.
OK… paying $60 to Yelp gets you a $150 credit with them… +1 star for saving me $90!
4 more stars are given for great customer service, from initial contact, to follow-up, to confirmation a day or so before the move, to the move itself and to follow the day after. I couldn’t imagine a more helpful, courteous experience.
They saw the size of my move (a FULL 30′ truck) and sent 4 guys + the truck for my move. The guys were almost jogging back and forth from the house to the truck.
They were very thorough in explaining the anticipated charges (to avoid surprises) and respected my time.
If I move in the SF area again, I know that I’ll call them first.
Thank you, Yelp, for finding me this great company.
Dear Ram,
It is my pleasure to jot down a few thoughts about NorthStar Moving. As a European. based moving coordinator contracted by companies of all sizes, I specialize in scheduling large scale moves from all over the world, including Europe and the United States. I’ve seen the good, the bad, and the ugly. This particular job was a U.S. based state to state relocation of a business and its workforce with the potential to get very ugly; it was a move with many moving parts and I needed a five star moving company to handle it.
The job required the full set up of a new office and dozens of individual residential relocations, many involving high level executives in the company who required fast, expert action. Your company met and exceeded the expectations of these business people, getting the whole office moved from California to Texas with the sort of speed and competence one expects from a race car pit crew! The moving team had the new office reconnected, reassembled and ready to recommence business in record time.
Relocation isn’t just about moving items from one place to another. It’s the ability to listen to sometimes complex instructions then implement them seamlessly. It’s the desire to go the extra mile to satisfy even the most meticulous of clients. It’s having the common sense to anticipate obvious problems before they arise and take care of them. The fact that your company embodies all of these characteristics is simply remarkable.
Everyone, from the initial Client Loyalty Team, to the dispatchers who coordinated things on the ground, to the movers themselves understood exactly how a keen attention to detail and a sense of pride in your work could transform the mundane into the magnificent.
Your company understands that relocation isn’t just about transit; it’s about people. When I hire NorthStar Moving, I know that I’m hiring a team who is committed to going the distance, whatever it takes.
In the future, NorthStar Moving will be my first choice for any U.S. based relocation needs.
Yours sincerely,
Mark English

I just moved from Reseda (San Fernando Valley) to Long Beach. My experience with this company was fabulous from the service I received over the phone all the way to signing the papers at the end of my move. Moving is a crappy experience for most, I think. These guys diminished a LOT of stress. Price was reasonable (purchased the Yelp deal, which knocked off $100 from my bill), and I did not feel like the movers were moving slow to rack up the bill. As a matter of fact, they moved my stuff FAST. I was anticipating the bill and time to be quite a bit because I moved quite a distance a way. Nope! Also, I had a closet full of stuff still and was only expecting to just move my big stuff (couch, bed, heavy boxes, etc.). The guys offered to let me borrow their own boxes (no extra charge-just give them back) and pack up my stuff in my closet. They saved me time and another trip back to the valley. Best experience I had with a moving company. I’ll be using them again! I recommend 100% Thank you!
They did a good job. I was happy and satisfied with the service they provided.
Excellent service. My family and I have been using NorthStar for years for all our moving needs. Their staff in the office and the people that do all the hard work are great. They’re very careful and unbelievably fast and efficient. I can’t believe my eyes every move experience we have with them. They provide the wardrobe boxes free of charge. Definitely get 3 guys if you can afford it. It’s very worth the extra cash.
