Review by Zadie H.

These guys are the best. We were searching around on yelp for moving companies and my fellow yelpers did not steer us wrong with NorthStar. NorthStar truly deserve much respect and praise. We we’re moving from LA to the Bay Area. We called and got someone to come out to to give us an estimate within 2 days. Ilan was our point of contact and he truly is an exceptional customer service oriented professional. He is very courteous and respectful and represents NorthStar extremely capably. We got $100 discount for mentioning yelp and he even beat his own estimate by $200 with a maximum price locked into his estimate. Our apartment was not ready by the first of the month which exceeded their 30 day free storage policy and he gave us a weeks worth of storage for free. They normally don’t prorate storage so if you exceed the complimentary 30 days, then you would get charge for a full month which is about $150-$200. On moving day 3 guys came and moved us out in 5 hours. The move was estimated to be 3-5 hours to pack and load their truck. Everyone was courteous, worked diligently, and most importantly handled our stuff with care and caution. They have a delivery date range of typically 3-5 days as part of their standard delivery services which is more economical than a hard delivery date. The week of our move, I communicated with Ilan on Monday to see if there was any wiggle room to have our stuff delivered by Friday morning and he said he’d check with his boss/dispatcher and got back to me within 24 hours to confirm that indeed they can make the delivery happen on Friday morning. This is where I am very grateful for NorthStar’s follow through. If I could give extra stars here, they’d get another 3 stars. With two tiny ones, we we’re hoping to move in on a Friday morning so that we can spend the weekend getting settled instead of moving in Saturday or even yikes on Sunday. Move in day went very smoothly. 3 gentleman and 1 lady showed up at 9 am sharp and moved us in in 2 hours including furniture set up and all. We had a tiny casualty, a clock was cracked. But it was a cheap clock and not a big deal for us. Conclusion: This was the most stress and hassle free move ever for us. All thanks to NorthStar and Ilan. We would definitely recommend them and use them again ourselves. PS a nice touch was that Ilan called us on Sunday just to check and see how things went. Keep up the amazing customer service NorthStar!
