I found this company on Yelp and they were great from the beginning, i scheduled for the move on the phone and the lady suggest that one of their rep. To come to our apartment and make a quote that the price will not exceed, which is good not to be surprised at the end of moving day!! The guy came on time his name is Ron and gave us several quotes depending on the work, we choose one. On the moving day 4 movers came on time they were very professional They wrapped and packed every thing in very short time! Very impressive! Also the unpacking was great, they did almost everything but the kitchen stuff,, and the end the price was less than we expected which made us very happy.. Excellent company made our move very easy…

North Star was fantastic, they took care of my furniture perfectly! They made my moving experience a great one, and I look forward to using them in the future. Staff was very helpful and continued to check up and see how everything went. Great company, certainly would recommend them to anyone who is thinking of moving and moving without all the hassle and trouble that comes with it. They are a bit pricey and sometimes there are some extra fees they put on, but they do tell you about them in advance though (even if you don’t really agree about how things are charged)

I literally just got done using them today.. It was a trip from Sherman Oaks to Manhattan Beach.. I have never used a moving company before, however this time I have much more stuff that needed better handling then myself and some friends, so I turned to yelp to find a company that had some great reviews and also had a decent price. North Star blew me away.. First of all, they were professional from the beginning.. But don’t fill in the Quick Quote, it just seemed like a waste of time; just have them come to your place to scope it out. They showed up for the appointment on time and they were really good and gave me a good deal for 3 guys at $115/hour. I needed some kind of guarantee because I didn’t want to pay hourly for the 405 if there was an accident. To my luck, there wasn’t. I boxed up what I could, and the guys showed up early, ready to go.. They immediately started working, non stop, the paperwork was filled out and simple; and if there was a mark on the furniture, they brought it to my attention so I was aware, which I was impressed. Once everything was loaded up, I met them in Manhattan Beach at my house. It was definitely a challenge because they had to carry my 65″ TV up a long flight of stairs along with other valuable furniture; but everything was handled great. Javier was the lead guy and was extremely friendly and helpful. The guys worked really fast and they were even under my original quote! I gave them a nice tip for their hard work. I highly recommend this company and I will use them again. The only downside I would say, is that they originally told me they didn’t have insurance and I was to use a third party; but then when I filled out the paperwork, they had some kind of included insurance. Luckily I forgot about the third party insurance and so I wasn’t mad about it. Great job Ron, Javier, and the gang!

Our second moving experience with NorthStar in two years. Staff members are friendly, flexible, competent and efficient – a pleasure to deal with. Pre-move, the flow of information is very helpful. Highly recommended!

I just moved 2 wks ago and they sent a 4 man team with 2 trucks for 150/hr. It took me from 8 AM to 1 pm to move all my boxes/ 2 fridges/2 TVs for a 3 bedroom 2000 Sq Ft house. ( this was a local move) They came a day in advance gave me an estimate for no more than $1500 for what may be a 10 hr job, and I only had to pay a 1000 for how efficient and quick they were. There was no lies and no BS like the last company pulled on me ( bringing a small truck so they had to load and reload and take more time!!) . With North star I was done by 1 PM and I even gave each worker 50 bucks for being so fast! It was a HOT day and god bless them for doing such a great job. I loved how I knew what I was dealing with and everything was so up front. Kudos to Ben and his team.

I can’t say enough good things about this company. The were helpful on every level. They showed up 20 minutes BEFORE 8. They worked hard and were very polite. They also made suggestions to help us save money with our move. I would recommend them to everyone.

I wish there were more stars to give NorthStar. I recently moved from Georgia to California in kinda of a hurry. I made a decision to call three moving companies before committing and I am happy to say I never made it past the second call; NorthStar was call number two and there was no need to look any further. Lynn was my representative, and she took responsibility from the first call until delivery date. Once my items were scheduled to be picked up, I also began to work with Adam who was in charge of dispatching and delivery. Adam was simply PHENOMENAL!!! Every commitment was completed, every call returned and every question answered. They really made me feel like I mattered and my move was the most important item on their list. I also commend the movers who delivered and reassembled my furniture. They too were courteous and helpful. Providing placement ideas for my items and offering to go beyond my expectations. I am so impressed! I have never had the liberty to meet Lynn or Adam, but I send them the biggest hug and thank you

These guys were great! The estimate was very fair and the completed job cost less than the estimate! They packed my kitchen (which I highly recommend) and nothing was broken or scratched. They were on time, friendly, efficient and well organized.

Wow, NorthStar is INCREDIBLE. After getting completely screwed over by another company (on the DAY of the move!!!!!) NorthStar was able to absolutely save us. They were able to accommodate us to an incredible degree and set us with movers the FOLLOWING DAY. This was amazing work! These are people who actually CARE about their customers! I would HIGHLY recommend NorthStar Moving! At the risk of sounding like a cheesy commercial, they completely SAVED me!

OK – moving can be a real pain in the ass, add to that the confusion and “sales” activity of some movers and/or sticker shock for the final bill, it is no fun. NorthStar had a professional and non-fast talking on site quote drafted by Ron Cohen. It was very detailed and included a “not to exceed” price. These folks were not the least expensive, but I had a much higher level of confidence on the quote. I got a email the same day with the written quote and all the details, including the inventory and price. What they moved: 3 bdrm house and a full garage, fast and clean, no breakage, got into the new place same day under the time estimate and right under budget! IF I HAD TO DO ANY MOVING I would call these folks first and save myself some drama. cheers – cg

After receiving quotes from many movers I narrowed it down to NorthStar and I made the right choice. They were on time, professional, hard working and moved at a fast pace but still careful with all my items. From the initial estimate, logistics to delivery they were available to answer my call any time i had a question or concern. Love them!

I had a very complicated move from a house my family has owned for 75 years. As a single mom with five kids I need things to be very organized. Ron who came out to set up the move was simply phenomenal. We had to organize different pack and move days and I had to change dates several times because of the escrow on my house and the new location and their flexibility and constant quick response eliminated all the stress. The team who did the pack and move were simply A+. The team was a pleasure to have at the house, they did a remarkable job, worked as hard as any professional team I’ve ever known. In addition they were smart, organized and respectful. After the move our final bill was a few hundred dollars more than the estimate and when I noted this to the company they immediately adjusted the bill and made a point that the quality of their work and client satisfaction is what drives their company. This is really an extremely well run business and one that was a total pleasure to work with. I actually found them after doing much research (including YELP) and am so thankful that I did.

Northstar sent a team of 3 to move our small but filled to the brim house to San Francisco.  Well, not the house, just the stuff inside.  I called 5 days before the move and there was no trouble scheduling.   They showed up on time calling before they arrived, explained the price carefully, both on the phone and in person.

The team was great, friendly, professional, and efficient.   They loaded the truck in less than 2 hours, and took the stuff up 2 flights to our new flat in less than 3.   All the time they were very friendly, even carrying my too heavy boxes up my new too narrow stairs.   

No damage to anything, everything placed where we wanted it.  Costs exactly as estimated, even a bit cheaper.  What more could I ask?

It was my first time using a moving company, but I didn’t really know what to look for. None of my friends would recommend the companies they used for their moves. I found a few local companies listed on Yelp, but after checking out the business’s website and reading the handful of mixed reviews, I wasn’t feeling confident about any of the options. There was a negative review by Paul C that caught my eye, so I sent him a note through Yelp to find out who he ended up using instead. Paul C responded with an enthusiastic recommendation for NorthStar Moving Corp. I checked them out and saw that they have an average rating of 4 1/2 stars with over 270 reviews on Yelp and an A+ rating with BBB, so NorthStar Moving Corp was looking really good. Within 15 minutes of submitting my online request for a quote, I received a call from Diana. She was friendly and answered all my questions, and explained some additional details that this first-timer wouldn’t know to ask. A day prior to my scheduled move, I received a call confirming my appointment. On moving day, the movers arrived on time. They were friendly and careful with all my belongings as if my things were precious antiques. The guys packed up my LA apartment and got me settled in my OC home without damaging any of my belongings or have anything “gone missing”. I was very pleased with my first moving company experience, and as an added bonus, I also got a discount because I found them through Yelp. I highly recommend NorthStar and plan to use them again in the future.

Northstar is SMART. They know that enthusiastic word-of-mouth will get them more business than a Yellow Pages ad, and so their business model is based on making their customers happy. They invest in it. Moving is a leap of faith and can be quite emotional – you’re entrusting your entire estate into someone else’s hands, as well as making a big change in your life. Do yourself a favor and do it with these guys. For a competitive price, I received premium service. From Wendy who worked with me to get the ball rolling. To Ilan, who personally came out and gave me an estimate that he guaranteed wouldn’t be more than what the contract said. To Juan Carlos, Jaime Pevromo, Miguel Garcia, and Rafael who packed and on-loaded our stupidly-heavy furniture – sometimes on their BACKS – with the strength of Norse gods and the easy, sweet attitudes of relaxed surfers: they treated everything as though it was their grandmother’s and did a more thorough job of packing and protecting than I would have done myself. Our off-loading crew, Jesus, Juan Carlos, Giovani, Ramir, and Matt had the additional burden of trying to find parking for a 22-foot truck in downtown San Francisco (I’m too embarrassed to admit to how long it took them – it’s my fault), but they handled everything with great style and grace. Even the dispatchers on the phone – such as Cesar – were exceptional – they speeded up my delivery date – just to help me get into my job faster. Honestly, if every company acted like they really cared about what customers would say about them – they would act more like Northstar. I can’t say enough nice things about these guys. Responsible, professional, competitive, and customer-focused. You won’t be disappointed if you go with them.

I wanted to give you a follow up on your teams move a few weeks ago. In a word, they were really great…ok really great. They did not sit around at all, worked like a great team and really got everything done quickly and professionally. My daughter is 1 and gets under everyone feet, including theirs. They smiled and played with her a little and took great care in watching out for her and our furniture. I would totally recommend you again. Thanks for a great job.

I highly recommend Northstar after our recent exhausting experience with researching a moving company. My girlfriend and I were looking for a moving company to come and not only do the move but fully pack it up too. We started by only looking on the Better Business Bureau for places with high ratings and contacted about a dozen. From that dozen about 6 made appointments with me to come out and give an in person estimate. We weren’t interested in coming up with a guess over the phone, we wanted it locked in as much as possible so there’d be as few surprises as possible. I can tell you that after a week of thorough research we confidently went with Northstar as our top choice, and to this day we’re happy with our choice. It started with Ron Cohen coming to the house for the estimate. I was honest and told him that we were comparing places and were looking to save money but wanted somewhere good. I knew from reviews to expect this to be one of the more pricey options but a good one. What I was very happy with was that Ron was very straight forward with me, he cut out as much of the extra cost as possible and was willing to come up with a flat rate so there’d be no question as to the final price, and best of all it was actually right in the middle of some of the other estimates, not even close to the highest price. We liked Ron and his professionalism (and the reputation of the company) so much that we happily went with them over a few cheaper options which simply weren’t quite as good. Ron kept every promise, the guys came over bright and early (and ontime) and although we’re still not fully UNPACKED I can tell you that so far nothing more than a solitary light bulb was broken, and they were very professional with the move. It took a while and at the end of the day the flat rate was completely honored and we’re very happy with the experience!

I recently had to move and was not looking forward to the experience. After reading positive reviews on Northstar, I decided to give them a try and am I glad I did! For starters, they arrived on time. They were quick, efficient, courteous and professional throughout the entire move. They padded the more delicate furniture pieces and handled all items carefully. Not a single piece of furniture was broken. Because of them my move was stress-free and quick! I highly recommend them.

NorthStar is the best, and I highly recommend them. Ron Cohen came to my house and gave a professional estimate, coordinated everything, and was constantly available for any questions. Oscar and his crew were extremely professional and efficient. Not a single item was broken. I would use NorthStar again without a doubt, and I highly recommend them to others without any reservation.

Found these guys on Yelp after reading so many great reviews.. (just like everyone else!) and they did a fantastic job for me.. Professional all the way, showed up when they said they were going to show up, and worked as quickly as possible. I packed up everything sans the kitchen (glasses, etc) and again they did a solid job with that as well, not a single breakage. If you got a little $$, don’t beg you’re friends to help you move.. Save yourself some stress and grovelling and get pros to do it proper, these guys did good by me, reccomended!
