Long Distance Move
Wow, what a great job. These guys were quick, professional and made sure my things were taken care of. Not only that but the price was the best I could find. These guys know what they are doing and had a great work ethic to boot. I would recommend them to anyone. Goodbye Monterey CA,
hello Austin TX.
NorthStar is, in a word, amazing. This was the most pleasant moving experience I have ever had, and my bar was high. Not only were they
thorough and accurate in their estimating, but they were courteous and professional. They were so careful with my belongings that not a
single item broke and there was not a single scratch on any of my possessions. They even came earlier than their quoted timeline (beating it
by 1-5 days), and delivered on a Sunday, which made my life so much easier. If you are moving, you owe it to yourself to call them.
Five stars is not enough!
Gret service from a professional, courteous team..Diego, Julio and Tovia who had to drlive the large truck up a narrow dead end, load and then back down again. They were fast and efficient and I would not hesitate to recommend. This job involved bringing items to theisr Hayward storage facility
for moving later cross country.
As a senior citizen, the thought of moving from L.A. to Iowa was daunting. I’m too old to move myself and I soon found myself deluged with people wanting to give me quotes. Fearing being low balled, I looked up long distance movers on Angie’s list and found NorthStar movers. My call to their
office resulted in Ron Cohen coming to my apartment to evaluate what I planned to move and to give me a quote. I was soon relieved to be dealing with Ron and Northstar. He is very pleasant and professional. He also made some helpful suggestions in response to my questions. (As it happened,
several days later, a new tenant used NorthStar to move into my building and she was very pleased with their service). Ron even made a second trip to help fine tune the amount of furniture and boxes I had decided to take. Bottom Line: I am so pleased with his service that I would recommend Ron
Cohen and NorthStar to anyone contemplating moving, local or long distance.
Working with NorthStar was great; they made a stressful cross-country move as easy as possible. Everyone I dealt with during the whole moving
process was always completely professional, and extremely helpful. The office staff kept me informed and updated with emails and phone calls
during every step of the process, and when I called with questions they were always able to give me thorough answers without any delay. They
were also very accommodating to the delivery rules of my new apartment building: since we cannot move in on weekends, the delivery window
for my things was extended by a few days.
On the day of my pick-up, the movers arrived almost immediately at the start of my appointment window and did a very thorough job wrapping each
piece of furniture. I was given an itemized list of my belongings, each piece was tagged with a specific number. Dropping off my things was just as easy, we checked off each piece on the list as they brought it into my new apartment.There were only two points I wasn’t completely satisfied with – first, the original day for my drop-off had to be rescheduled after their delivery truck
broke down, however it took most of the day for them to come to that point. I appreciate that they still wanted to try to bring my things on the original
day, but in the end I just spent the day at home waiting while they tried to fix the truck. It might have been better to just reschedule earlier on. Second,
there was some slight damage done to a TV stand during shipping – the corner was cracked. However, the staff made it very easy to file a claim for
the insurance included in my moving contract, and I received a settlement that will help cover the cost of a new stand.
Overall, I was extremely happy with NorthStar’s service, and highly recommend them.
I wish I could give this company in general – and Hector Juarez and Simon Dervishian in particular – 10 stars because they deserve it.
I moved cross country from Los Angeles to Chicago, and NorthStar was responsive, caring and professional every step of the way. I have nothing but
praise for everyone I dealt with, from estimator Alan Nudel, to the crew that picked up, wrapped and loaded my stuff in LA, to coordinator Mor and her
supervisor Jesus who handled the scheduling so my truck arrived on the exact day I need it, to the two gentlemen who pulled up in the 18-wheeler,
the aforementioned driver Hector and his partner Simon, to unload my life’s belongings in Chi-Town.
A note about Hector and Simon: I have never seen movers work so hard and so fast (they actually ran back-and-forth between the truck and my condo!) and with such grace and good humor in all my moves throughout all my life.
Hector and Simon bring a real passion to their job that I believe reflects the general culture of this wonderful company from the top on down. But what I really loved, was these two guys never stopped smiling, even when forced to find a creative solution to getting my back-breaking beast of a leather sofa into my new home without using the too-narrow stairs. Think levitation – that’s all I’m saying.
To sum up: I give NorthStar Movers 10 stars.
