I had told my fiance that next time we move we’re getting a moving company because I am too beat up for this moving crap. I had asked around at work if anyone knew of a good moving company and someone did. She had used Northstar and had recommended it to numerous people at the office and raved about how good they were. Of course telling my fiance this wasn’t enough, she started researching on the interwebs to find out what others had said and all the reviews she found were good. We had Ron come out to do an estimate. He was friendly, informative and helpful with suggestions. He put our minds at ease with the move which can be overwhelming. On move day the Northstar crew was on time and wrapped everything and was very careful with all of our furniture. All three were guys friendly and hard working. On the off load my brother and I went out to get food and beer for our friends who had come over to help (no need, Northstar had taken care of it all) and when we came back the Northstar guys were done unloading!!! Can’t say enough good things about Ron and his crew. When we move again (and I hope its not for a long time lol) we’re calling out Northstar again. erin-x
Gadi and his team were amazing. Very professional, courteous, and timely. Their rates are competitive. Their movers were very careful and meticulous. Overall, they exceeded my expectations in every way. I would use them again for any move and recommend them highly.
I called NorthStar to schedule my move because I learned from a search that they were expert piano movers. Not only did they do a great job moving my piano, but the guys were extremely friendly and professional and moved all of my things with care. They took special time to ask questions and carefully handle delicate items. The move went far smoother than I could have imagined. The account manager Ron Cohen was particularly helpful and even found me a resource to move my flat screen TVs and have them re-installed at the new home. I would highly recommend NorthStar for anyone considering a move. You’ll be thrilled with the service!
Northstar convinced me that moving actually can be a smooth, stress-free process. From the moment Gadi showed up at my house to give us a quote, I knew we were in good hands. Gadi is a mix of utmost professionalism as well as approachable warmth and humor–he put me at ease, went through the details of the job and the quote, and made it clear that our things would be moved with care and that nothing but the best service would be provided. The crew who showed up to move us clearly met the high standards Gadi had promised–they moved quickly and efficiently, and took great care of our things. Our move went very smoothly and I will absolutely call Gadi and Northstar again the next time we move.
Northstar Moving is always my first choice. As a professional organizer, I need to be able to ensure my clients will have peace of mind on move day. They have come through for me every time. My last move was on Superbowl Sunday. Richard was the lead. He and his crew over delivered and took amazing care of us. It was seemless and effortless. I highly recommend Northstar to any looking for quality movers with a competitive price. Gadi is the best and Richard is terrific! Thanks Northstar!
I normally don’t post reviews online, but I HAD to for NorthStar after my move from California to Michigan. From the very beginning these guys were helpful. An associate (Ron) came to my apartment to give me an estimate on the cost and we set everything up that very day. The night before my scheduled pick up, NorthStar called to confirm my time window along with the amount due that day – which I thought was great of them. My pick-up time window was 8-10am and I had a crew of 3 guys there at 8:00 on the dot. PERFECT. The guys were very nice and had everything securely boxed up within 1 1/2 hours. The delivery experience was just as great. The driver called me 5 days before my drop-off day to make sure I had his number and reassured me I could call him with ANY questions and let me know he would update me on his whereabouts prior to the drop-off day. He kept his word. Two days before he called to give me my time window and the next day he called to remind me of the time. My delivery window 8-10am and he was there right at 8:00. He had everything unpacked within 1 1/2 hours – exact same as the pick-up. Moving across country (and in general) is really, really stressful but this company took a HUGE weight off my shoulders. I felt 100% comfortable with leaving all of my personal belongings while they drove it across country and I would recommend them to ANYBODY. PS: Don’t forget to mention that you found them on Yelp – they stick to their discount promise!
Moving was so easy and smooth thanks to NorthStar. Ron came out and gave an estimate. They beat a competitors rate and provided one more person than the competitor. The move was completed in less time than estimated, so we ended up paying less than the maximum estimate. Movers were polite and hard working. Every piece was moved with no damage.
Since living in Los Angeles for the past 11 years, I’ve had to move a total of five times; Ranging from studios, to apartments to houses. But my most recent move was BY FAR my best experience to date. I had read about Northstar Moving on line and was immediately impressed with their ratings, but it wasn’t until the actual move in day that I was truly blown away. First off, Ron Cohen was the person that I dealt with from the very start– He came to my house to give me an estimate, which ends up being the MAX that you will pay, no matter how long it takes to do the move. He was amazing to deal with, was professional, smart and new exactly what it would take to get the job done, as well as ease my fears from past bad experiences. The quote he gave me was reasonable and made sense and proved to be exactly what we needed for our move. On the day of the actual move, three men showed up at my door, ready to work. They were fast, efficient, very professional and most of all, very friendly. They even helped out with little things like helping me carry trash outside, to getting things from our storage on the high up shelves in my garage. Upon arriving at our new house, they were extremely careful about not scratching the furniture nor the walls. I’ve never seen movers take such gentle care of boxes and antique furniture in my life! Sometimes they would take more than 10 minutes just to carry something up the stairs, all in an effort to make sure not to scratch or damage the item! I give Northstar a five star rating, but honestly, if i could give it ten stars, I would. They are truly the best moving company in So cal and I would never use anyone else.
I was “blown away” by the customer service that I received from the moment I made my first call to ask for a quote, to the last time I saw the great guys who had helped with my move, pull away from the curb… of my new home!!! This was not an easy move, I lived in a high rise, which meant the guys had to wait for an elevator, every time they need to go up to my apartment, or down to their moving truck. They were always polite, and professional. I am an “older” single woman, and they treated me with the utmost respect. I would gladly recommend them to anyone who is contemplating a move. I really want to thank Agustin Guido, Ignacio, & Pedro for all their hard work in getting me into my new home. NorthStar Moving………..Rocks!!!
I received a quote from Ron Cohen a few weeks ago moving from LA to Houston. To be honest, the quote was more than I could afford and I decided to get a UHAUL and move myself. When I got to my apt in LA I looked around and thought, ‘I must be crazy’, so I emailed Ron and asked if he could send 4 guys and at least help me load my truck. I would drive it myself. He fit in my budget and THANK GOD! The guys were amazing! They were non-stop, worked so hard, were so professional and packed my truck perfectly. We didn’t think everything would fit at first, and lo and behold there was EXTRA room! The mover said it’s like playing a game of TETRIS 🙂 The thing that impressed me most was even after having to move HEAVY things down 5 flights of stairs (YES, my elevator was broken), the guys had a smile on their faces the entire time. I was totally impressed and grateful for the guys, their attitude and their professional moving. I had some very expensive items and I chose to spend the money to protect them and have them moved correctly – and I’m so glad I did.
I was recommended by a friend to work with Gil. He was so professional and so honest. He always responded to my inquiries quickly and was such a great help! He was able to help me save a lot money becuse he gave me such great packing tips! I moved from LA to Texas and all of my belongings arrived safely and in a timely manner. I would HIGHLY recommend anyone who is moving to work with Gil. He is great and the movers were so professional, helpful and friendly. Everyone at Northstar has a positive and professional attitude. I would definitely use them again!
North Star moved my offices 13 years ago. I was so impressed back then that I’ve held on to their card. They did not disappoint me on this move either. At every step of the process North Star did exactly what they said they were going to do, there were no surprises. That to me is the definition of professionalism. From the person who answered my phone call to schedule the appointment, to Ron Cohen who wrote the estimate, to the team who did the actual move; everyone was terrific. Whenever I move again-for business or for personal-I’ll be calling North Star again
Northstar was amazing. Not only were they reasonably priced and treat you like royalty, but they do an incredible job and are extremely careful and professional. Make sure to ask for Ilan – he’ll make sure you’re treated right. It was my second time moving with them, and I won’t use another company.
Gadi Avigzer and his team are absolutely terrific. Their attention to detail and the care with which they move you is really something. They move your stuff as if it were there own. We will use them again and it’s no surprise that they have a number of references and repeat customers. They are not the least expensive, but they are the best. Save yourself the headaches of the bargain guys. I couldn’t believe how helpful and considerate they were, even to some elderly relatives and to the kids. Gadi and his team are honest and are incredibly hard workers. We are recommending them to everyone. We found them on Yelp and now we’re converts raving about them on Yelp as well.
I had a really great experience with Northstar. They were well-priced and very professional. Everything was packaged well and delivered with no damages. I highly recommend them.
Ours was a very difficult move with a lot of antiques and breakables. Ron Cohen and his team handled everything with care, yet got everything done in record time. I am so grateful for their expertise, and so impressed with their level of service.
I have used the services of NorthStar Moving on 3 different occasions and have found them to be the most professional, friendly, accommodating, efficient and most wonderful movers that I have ever dealt with. My contact for all 3 moves was Gadi Avigzer. He was terrific. Throughout the process he made sure to make the process easy and stress free. The crews performing the service on all 3 occasions were efficient, courteous, neat and friendly. I have nothing but high regard and kind words for Gadi Avigzer and NorthStar Moving.
If I was to ever write a documentary on good customer service, North Star would be a case study. Professional and friendly at every link in the chain (which is rare even for good companies). Their rep Ted was attentive. Their estimator Ron C. was thoroughly detail oriented and patient enough to walk me through everything he was putting into his estimate and why. Last, but not least, Richard H. and his crew were the best of the best. Punctual, efficient, polite, friendly, and careful with our valuable items, they were pretty much everything you want out of a moving crew and then some. They showed up right on time and were ready to get working the minute they stepped through the door. I couldn’t even believe how fast things were disappearing from my box filled living room. Now before this, when Ron gave me his estimate, I almost choked on my drink. But I’m the type to pay for quality, so I beefed up my budget and readied myself for the pain. However, the best surprise was at the end when it came in under time and under budget. Thanks North Star!!! P.S. – There’s a few other areas of modern commerce that could use your golden touch. I’d gladly take my car to a North Star Auto Repair. Food for thought 😉
Everything from my first call to the last box moved went smoother than expected. NorthStar – from Jon to Ilan and especially to Richard and his crew – is super customer service oriented. Calls were readily returned (if in the rare instance that I had to leave a message), appointments were easily made and convenient around my schedule, and each step along the way NorthStar actually made moving a pleasant experience. Richard and his crew showed up 15 minutes early, letting me know they were ready when we were. Each box and piece of furniture were carefully attended to, as if each were the team’s own personal property. They were quick, worked hard each minute of the day, and never tired of my requests to move one box to another room or help perfectly center something along the wall. Friends recommended NorthStar, and am I sure glad they did. I highly recommend NorthStar as well.
This company is as good as it gets. Efficient, professional and curteous. Ron came out to answer questions and give us an estimate. We came in $300+ BELOW! Anytime I had a question, Ron responded with lightning speed. The movers were fast and courteous. Not one item went missing or broken and not one scratch on our nice wood furniture! I know who I’m using next time we move… Book ’em!
There guys were great! I moved from L.A. to Ct. when the weather could not have been worse but Ron Cohen in L.A. was an excellent representative who was always there to help and answer questions. The driver Jean Charles Sala was superb and loaded my things expertly and drove cross country through many blizzards and delivered everything in tip top shape. He was amazing and the crews on both coasts were terrific as well. If you’re looking for a great moving company with profressional and honest people at a great price then North Star is for you.
NorthStar THANK YOU!!! I am 8 months pregnant and we moved last weekend, this is something I was really dreading but it proved to be a seamless and stress free experience. I posted an inquiry on their website and within a few hours someone contacted me. Barak Cohen came over within a day to give us an on site estimate, He was extremely professional and easy to deal with. I got another quote from another moving company however the initial service and estimate I received from Barak made the decision to go with Northstar extremely easy. On the day of the move the movers were prompt and they began packing everything for us, quickly and carefully. They sent 4 people which was great for a 2 bedroom apartment. My husband and I just relaxed and watched. They bought all our things over and began unpacking and placing everything where it belonged even our clothes were hung in the closet (they hung our clothes in special wardrobe boxes so they didn’t crease at all). Jaime, Erick, Alejandro and David you were AMAZING and made it such an easy day for us. We appreciate your hard work and professionalism. I would definitely use Northstar again!!
Northstar is a 5 STAR moving company!!!. I used them several times in the past for different clients (Office moves) and was very pleased with their performance. Gadi has proved to me again and again that I can trust him completely to get the job done. Gadi is a hard working individual, very detailed and super involved in everything related to the move. He will hold your hand through the process to ensure smooth experience. He showed up onsite the day of the move and made sure everything was handled properly and that my clients were happy.
From my first phone call with Ted – to meeting Gadi and then the fabulous crew of Oscar and the guys – it was the easiest move I’ve ever done! It is a real pleasure to work with professionals and they were fairly priced. (they even came in UNDER their estimate and this was a two truck move!) Plus – their customer service is A+! It is so nice to work with people who you feel actually like their job! I highly recommend them. And have already hired them AGAIN for a smaller move this weekend!
NorthStar Is an excellent moving company. The best I have ever encountered in all my 26 years living in California. I have used NorthStar three times and each time they have provided me with excellent service. Ron Cohen the estimator has hit my budget and target hours right on the nose. The moving staff is excellent in the manner that they wrap your furniture with such care better than when it came from the manufacturer. The movers are on time, they move rapidly and adhere strictly the the NorthStar standard of care. I will continue to recommend them to everyone I know that needs this service they are EXCELLENT!!!
