Mover Thinks Outside the Boxes

When the housing bust hit in 2007, NorthStar Moving [..] did what any struggling business would do:  It offered customers doggie day care […] and home-cooked meals. OK. Not every company would offer such amenities, but the Chatsworth outfit is not ordinary.  The high-end mover offered a “Red Carpet” service in which customers don’t lift a finger and it does work for Hollywood productions, including setting up the mansion for the ABC reality TV  series “The Bachelor”.
