Worked with Ron Cohen to get everything set up before the move. On moving day, the guys were on-time and packed everything quickly and efficiently. Everything was fantastic. I’m definitely using them again next time I move.
Local Move
This is my first review on Yelp. Last time I moved I used Hollywood Movers, and it was one of the most distasteful experiences ever. They were slow, lazy, and they broke a ton of stuff. Northstar was the polar opposite. They explained the quote very clearly, then there was a follow-up call to go over everything about the move. The company called me that morning to tell me the guys were on their way. When the guys arrived, they were friendly and courteous and they listened. They went over the contract in detail.
Then they started moving and MAN, it was like I was being moved by the Tasmanian Devil, if said devil was super fast but also careful. They wrapped EVERYTHING in plastic and whenever they found a ding or a flaw, they called me over and showed it to me so they could confirm that there was already damage. They even found natural flaws in the wood of my dresser! They also took the bed apart, which I wasn’t expecting. I forced those poor guys to move all my stuff up a flight of stairs and down a labyrinthine hallway and they just freaking did it without a word. They took one extremely well-deserved break and at no time were they ever grouchy or annoyed. They asked me where to put everything and then asked me again when it was all in if it was all where I wanted it. They went over the contract with me AGAIN, and then I paid. It was reasonable. Not more than what I was expecting. And these guys worked their TAILS off. Only a superhero could have gotten it done faster. A few days later, I received a follow-up call from the company to ask how the move went.
I will always use Northstar. I was extremely impressed. For the record, the three Tasmanian devils were Agustin Guido, Jose Guido and Carlos Canizales. Simply awesome!!!
Extremely professional, friendly, and fast. I was moving from a twelve story apartment building in LA to Long Beach (on a Saturday), and we did everything in about 4 hours. The price came out to be less than what was estimated even. Would recommend them for any move.

We had a great experience moving with Northstar this past Friday. They showed up on time, packed everything up quickly (but carefully), and unloaded quickly. They asked where we wanted everything placed in our new house, and even asked if we wanted to change anything around once it was all inside.
The crew completed the job an hour earlier than our estimate as well, which saved some money. I thought that maybe they would slow their pace in order to pad the bill, but this did not happen at all. Very honest and hard-working crew.
Another great experience with NorthStar! I’ve used them three times… and each time better than the last. Setting up a date for the move was painless, and I knew exactly what to expect. The three men who helped with the move were all fantastic–professional, hard-working, and friendly. I can’t believe how fast they were! What I love is how carefully they treat my furniture. I also used the Yelp coupon for $50, and that was a nice bonus.
I can’t imagine moving myself ever again! Thank you, thank you, thank you NorthStar!!!
I loved the efficiency of this company. Contact was never lacking and pricing was straight forward. Jason and Ted are both super friendly and were very patient with me when I asked a billion questions.
The 3 guys that moved us were hustling. Very nice guys and no dilly dallying. Everything made it safe and sound. I am surprised that they didn’t grumble once at how far the unloading dock was from the apartment on the 4th floor.
I’d definitely recommend this company to anyone. Make sure you tell them you read about the company on yelp to get your discount.
I wanted to both commend and recommend NorthStar Moving Co for the outstanding job they did with my move on Mar 5th, 2011. I have made several residence moves in the past, not always with good results but Northstar exceeded my expectation. The positive experience started with the return call from their account rep, Kat, who was very professional and asked all the right questions. The quoted price was very fair and, as it turned out, an incredible deal. The moving team was very professional and focused on making sure that my possessions and property were well protected. They even had to carry furniture and appliances up a double flight of stairs and never hit the walls or banisters. Even when they finished, there was no damage at all. I would highly recommend them for any move contemplated and will use them again in the future.
in a word AWESOME.
Gil prepared our “not to exceed” estimate and was freindly and very knowledgable. Truck and Richard H’s 4 man crew showed up on time and started immediately. They are a practiced and motivated team. They were careful with everything and did an amazing job packing the truck. Unloading went quickly and they placed items in our new home without asking. Move time went a little over ( we moved 65 miles ) and the “not to exceed” estimate was the cost we paid. Great moving team, great experience, great price. This is a satisfied customer who will definately use them for our next move. Thank you for an amazing relocation to our new home. Definately recommend this company and team.
super fast, hard-working, careful with our stuff and great communications with me while moving our household goods from 2 storage units over to our new house 8 miles away. had absolutely no glitches while moving everything. they had good mo-jo between one another, as they helped each other as needed…guys didn’t need to wait for the team leader to instruct them on what to do in various situations. worked 8 /12 hours to move our 4-bed, 2600 sq ft house full of stuff. price was extremely reasonable and included a truck and miles. supervisors speak great English and communicated well with the other men on the job. unbelievably careful with our higher valued items (paintings, furniture, antiques). i would highly recommend these guys to absolutely anyone.
