NorthStar moved me from Los Angeles to San Francisco. Yesterday, three movers – Juan, Jose and Ruben – went the extra mile to move some very big, very heavy furniture up a flight of stairs. They were determined to get the job done and worked extremely hard. They provided excellent service.

Testimonials
Did a great job, super quick, very professional. Would definitely recommend it. I will be hiring them again very soon!
These guys were fabulous. They came at the expected arrival time. They were extremely helpful. They were so nice and professional. They were super fast. They even took stuff to the trash and loaded our cars. They’re the best.
Our experience with NorthStar was superb. Albert and his team did a terrific job for us on a local move. They were on time, professional, courteous, patient, careful and efficient. We are completely satisfied with the service and wholeheartedly recommend this moving company.
They made everything easy. Of all the places I called early on during the pandemic, they were the only ones who said their workers will wear masks, so I went with them even though they were a bit pricier than the other options I called. Better safe than sorry.
The guys did a great job on our move to our new place. They came on a Friday, wrapped and packed our belongings and then they moved us the next morning to our new place. Splitting the move up into two days really made it a lot less stressful for us. They guys were professional, courteous and just a pleasure to deal with.
Albert (the foreman), Santos and Carlos were awesome! They went above and beyond to make sure our moving day went well. They answered every question we had and got all of our stuff delivered without a scratch. 10/10. Will definitely use NorthStar again.
TL:DR – Albert and his team arrived early, were courteous, professional, and did NOT waste time. Time is money! That does not mean they were careless; they were careful with all items and helped with placement and made sure floors and walls were not nicked or dinged. I would highly recommend this team.
Long Version – Had a move from LA to the IE and reached out to a few companies. A couple I just didn’t get the right vibe and NorthStar was the one consistently responding back to email.
They recommended a Sunday move due to traffic (and to ensure a quicker move cause you do get charged by the hour). Anyway, got the courtesy call to confirm move was still on a couple days before, and then another call that they were 30m out.
They did WORK on my place and got the stuff out the door QUICK (after wrapping it with plastic and blankets and such). I met them at my new place and after a walkthrough of where everything should go, they rolled out the red carpet and some additional blankets so as to not walk around the carpet.
Got me loaded up and all set at my new place in about an hour (had some stairs and some heavy ass furniture) and set it up BEAUTIFULLY. Did a final walkthrough and everything looked great. Even knew how I wanted to set up my office without my asking! (Though they did tell me if I wanted it different they would rearrange).
All in all, one of the best, if not the best move I’ve had, and I’ve been all over from ATL to CHI and in-between.
Thanks Albert and team, for taking care of my stuff and for getting me settled all nice and neat into my new place!
We just had a wonderful experience with NorthStar! George and his crew were so nice, friendly, professional and eager to go above and beyond. They packed us all up and moved us very efficiently. Highly highly recommend!
Johan G, Cesar H, and Enrique P were amazing! We had a swift move in just a few hours that felt painless and much easier than the last time we moved. They were efficient, friendly, and had a great attitude- super professional!! would highly recommend !
My family highly recommends NorthStar Moving. Quick, hardworking, and professional. Went above and beyond.
I highly recommend NorthStar Moving Company! They were responsive and helpful from start to finish. We recently moved (within the same city) from an apartment to a house.
I did some research and reached out to various moving companies to compare prices. We chose NorthStar based on the quotes provided and the reviews here. We’d also had a friend who used NorthStar right when SIP hit–my friend had a young toddler and was 8 months pregnant at the time, and NorthStar did a great job.
I spoke to Emily and had a few emails back and forth before we agreed to terms and signed. We chose a morning window and received a call from Jose 30 mins prior to their arrival. All three movers were masked, introduced themselves and familiarized themselves with everything that had to be moved. My husband talked to them, describing where different furniture items would go in our new home (important later!)
They got to work and were incredibly fast! We felt bad because we had some last minute packing to do, but they were able to work around us and get a lot done. They wrapped our furniture in moving blankets and shrink wrap when appropriate, and quickly moved everything into the truck. Once we arrived at our new home, they unloaded everything quickly, placing furniture where my husband had described earlier. Since we had started in the morning and it was early afternoon, we provided lunch and they were very gracious.
Again, I highly recommend this company–they are fast, friendly, affordable, efficient and nothing was damaged in the move. As a side note, one of our neighbors at our apartment had also hired movers to move items from her garage into the truck. NorthStar was able to not only move us out of our old apartment, but also move us IN to our new place before these guys even filled the back of their truck!
Absolutely outstanding from start to finish. We really put them through the ringer, and they responded with nothing but professionalism and courtesy. Our contact throughout the process, Gil, was of particular help. The crew that came to do the actual move was extremely efficient and couldn’t have been nicer (Manny, Willy, and their associates). It’s so refreshing to find such a helpful company in a business that doesn’t exactly have the best reputation. Highly recommend!
They are one of the best moving companies.
Very friendly and professional. Ask for Michael. He is young but a hard worker with great attitude.
We hired North Star for our local move and the team we got (Johan G, David N, Juan G, Enrique P and Kevin R) was AMAZING. We honestly couldn’t be happier. They started early in the morning, calling to confirm they were on their way. Some services say they’ll do that and then don’t actually call. That was not the case with Johan.
The entire team was personable, efficient, and thoughtful. Our last move was all the way into the evening hours so they really knocked our expectations out of the park. I’d definitely use North Star again. If you’re going to book your move, specifically request this team and they’ll take care of you.
No one enjoys the process of moving, honestly. But Johan’s team definitely made it a breeze. Can’t say enough good things.
Awesome service! Johan, Jorge, Andres helped with everything from my tv to my fridge to my bed. It was great to see how careful and thorough they are. Really felt like they treated my stuff as if it were their own.
I am late on writing this review about our experience with Northstar Moving Company. However, I’ll just say that it was Amazing! We had the honor of watching these four men do a great job. The names were as follows: (It was difficult for me to read their handwriting, so I apologize if I made mistakes with their last names) The hard working, honest and careful men were as follows:
Austin Bastian (Lead), Adam Derr, Noah Harker, and Albert Northrup.
With that being shared, I wanted to say THANK YOU guys!!!!
They got all of our 3 bedroom apartment completely packed and delivered in one day. They were an awesome group of guys! We only did a small amount of work ourselves packing and getting organized. Because of this reason, we expected that this would be a two day job. However, as I mentioned earlier, all was done in one day. This included taking our beds apart and then putting the beds together once we got into our new place. For all our future moves, we will only use Northstar Moving Company. We LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!
They have moved me several times and not once have I regretted it. Their long distance group is a little better than their local guys but not by much. Getting ready to hire them again.
Their contact with me before the move was excellent in that they provide details about how the move would go (timeline & cost), and checked back with me before the move. And provided email communication so that we could exchange information in a timely manner. All exceeded my expectations.
On move day a crew of strong workers showed up. They focused on the task of loading the truck while sharing a few thoughts about to improve the process. Once we were done at the old location they headed to lunch and the new location.
At the new locate again it was all hands to the task at hand. Professional with extra care not to damage anything at the new location.
They were done on time and within my budget.
I would hire them again in a heart beat.
Shout out to Alex (estimator), Juan, Elias, and Jose (movers) who were tremendously helpful with my recent cross-country move. They were all so nice, professional, efficient and trustworthy. It was the first time ever I literally sat back and truly trusted the team to do a great job. The delivery window for the truck to arrive cross-country even got moved up by a week and the company kept me informed at every step. I would not hesitate to recommend NorthStar – truly an exceptional service!
Moving is stressful. It’s worse than stressful. When these guys do it, it’s a pleasure. It’s almost fun. Michael Hernandez and his crew took care of everything. They work extremely hard, extremely fast and yet somehow are so careful – not a single scratch. They care for stuff as if it’s their own. I was behind and had some uncovered boxes, etc. They took care of all that, no questions asked. They also wrapped everything carefully and securely without being told to do so. I’m so grateful to these gentlemen and this company.
Hands down , they were absolutely AWESOME!!! I would give them 6 stars if they had them. On time, fast, professional. they packed us up, organized everything even beat us to our new home. They quickly unloaded our things. The price was an excellent value on top of everything else.
The entire team was top notch, from their offices contacting and confirming our appointment, to a follow up call to make sure everything went well.
Do yourself a favor and go with Northstar Moving!
We hired North Star for our move a couple of weeks ago and they were OUTSTANDING! Really, I can’t say enough about how wonderful the entire experience and crew were!
The virtual home walk-thru that Gil guided me through was effortless and he sent me an estimate right away and shared helpful tips for preparing for our move.
I also appreciated that the day before the move, someone called us to confirm and see if we had any questions.
Our move took 2 days and the crew (Ramiro, Kevin & Juan) were very organized and professional and had great positive & happy energy that was much appreciated during the hectic two days. They were also very considerate and caring towards our little Jack Russell who was stressed because of all of the activities.
And, Gil’s follow-up after the move was appreciated!
We’ll certainly be hiring them again in the future as well and recommending them to anyone we know who has moving needs!
OUTSTANDING!
We had an amazing experience with Northstar. Due to Covid, Alan the estimator knocked out a digital walkthrough of our 2.5 bed apartment in SF in about 10 minutes and sent us the not-to-exceed quote within a day.
On moving day Abraham, the lead, called me on the way to let me know his exact ETA. When they arrived (Abraham, Adrian, Jason, and Ermon) we did a walk around the apartment and then it was off to the races! They quoted us an 8 hour move and it was out and into the new place in 6 hours, including 45 minutes of travel time. It ended up being faster and cheaper than anticipated and the guys were a pleasure to work with. The moved couches, beds, dressers, tables, peleton, everything without issue.
These guys killed it, we’ll be recommending them to anyone who needs help.
I estimated incorrectly how much stuff I had. The movers worked non stop and got the job done!!
They guys did a fantastic job! They worked quickly and were thorough with packing all of my items and managed to fit a difficult couch through a tight door. I would absolutely recommend them!
