Was moving from SF to DC, and NorthStar provided me the most affordable quote by far out of the 10+ companies I contacted. They were prompt, fast, and professional, and my stuff ended up arriving in DC way faster than I had expected. Overall just a really smooth experience. Highly recommend!
Long Distance Move
Austin and Alex came to pack our truck for our move cross country. Both the guys were great and helpful with putting stuff in the truck and getting everything organized, taping up priceless items and wrapping things we wanted in plastic wrap. Highly recommend using them for all moving needs!
Inquired several companies for my move from California to Texas and ended up getting a referral from a smaller moving company that wouldn’t be able to do our move since they are limited to 2 bedroom apartments.
After reading all the reviews about Northstar, I felt pretty confident that I would get excellent service for my long distance move. My last move was a local move 8 years ago and had a great experience with the moving company; however the reviews started to reflect poorer service so I decided to go with Northstar.
From the very beginning, Northstar was responsive and Lorena was my moving specialist and was so easy to deal with from the very beginning. We did the virtual estimate and gave me a price, which was high but knowing that the costs for moving have gone up, I thought it was reasonable. 3 days prior I sent them an updated inventory and Lorena sent me an updated estimate which increased the cost but I added a significant amount of items.
On move day, the crew called when they were about 40 minutes from my home. Manny, Alfonso, Willy and Mauricio came into the home to confirm what needed to be taken. They arrived at 9AM and and finished everything at 3PM with a lunch break in between. All 4 of the guys took a lot of care when wrapping and would make sure to point out any damage that existed on my furniture. I have a 2800sq ft, 4 bed/3.5 bath home and was amazed at how efficient and professional the guys were. I give them 5+ stars for an awesome job. Thank you Northstar for an amazing experience and making things so much easier.
I’ll write an update once I arrive at my new home in Texas and receive my belongings. I don’t anticipate any less than 5 star service when I get to my destination. Thank you guys!
Northstar movers was extremely fast, reliable and responsive. I was super skeptical of using movers for our long distance move from SF to LA as I have many valuable items. They made sure to carefully wrap and pack everything while guiding me through the process. The delivery down in LA was similarly fast and reliable. They asked where everything needed to go and even reassembled the bed. Amazing amazing service and would definitely use them again for my next move!
We recently used Northstar Moving to help us relocate from California to Austin, Texas right before the holiday. This wasn’t our first cross-country move, but it was one of the best. They helped provide us a quote, schedule a packing day, move-out and move-in all within a few short weeks. We moved from a three story town home into a single family home in Austin – with all the things that come from living in a home for several years, including fragile items, cookware, furniture, televisions and electronics etc.
When our stuff arrived we had another excellent crew help move our stuff into our home. All of our stuff arrived, undamaged, and in the exact condition it was packed in. They made it so much easier to settle into our new home. I’d highly recommend using them if you are exploring a local or cross country move.
The best moving experience – from start to finish. We used them for a SF-NY move and will highly recommend them to anyone in a heartbeat. Reliable, courteous and careful – exactly what you need to take some of the stress out of moving. Sanjeev provided a reliable moving estimate and was available and patient with all subsequent questions – A+++ service. Juan, Jose and Ruben were rockstars! They were fast, efficient and took care of our stuff as if their own. A thousand thanks!
I just completed a cross-country move from LA to New York with NorthStar and it could not have gone better.
I reached out a couple months ahead of my move for a walk through and a quote. Kate on the client loyalty team had a quote for me the same day as my walk through despite the move still being a long time away, and even before I had even found my new apartment. As I got closer to the date, she was so helpful in updating my quote as things changed, including when I had a new address to add as the destination, moving up my moving date by a week, and removing items from my belongings as I trimmed down what I was bringing with me. Always super responsive and super friendly.
On my actual moving day, the movers could not have been better. I packed everything myself except for some larger items, which they handled quickly and safely. They also helped me with a few items that needed to go down to the trash that I wasn’t able to carry myself. The crew was so helpful and so nice.
The last time I did a bicoastal move, it took nearly 8 weeks for my belongings to arrive, so I was prepared for a long timeline again. Not this time. It took just 2 weeks for the movers to arrive in New York from LA! The team in NY was smaller (just 2 guys in NY compared to 5 in LA), but they were still amazing, super friendly, and super fast. And none of my stuff was broken!
Top to bottom, my experience with NorthStar absolutely top notch. If/when I move again, long or short distance, I will be reaching out to them first.
I had a great experience with NorthStar – they saved me after I was left hanging by another company (lowball bid and no show the day of the move). Kate at NorthStar was completely understanding, was quick to respond, and secured a moving team for me within days. John and his team that handled the pickup in CA were totally professional. They re-packed a lot of my boxes (that were admittedly poorly packed) and made an itemized list of every box that went into the truck. They promised delivery within 20 days, but in fact, their dispatcher Cesar contacted me a few days after pickup to let me know that my stuff would be arriving only a week after pickup which was fantastic news. Sure enough, Austin and his team arrived Saturday morning and promptly unloaded all of our stuff. I’d definitely use them again.
Albert and Wilbur were top notch professional packers that any company should be proud to employ. They took great care packing up my most valuable items including a 185lb digital piano, a hydrow, and 65 & 55 Inch OLED TV’s. I highly recommend Northstar as they’re worth the price for peace of mind. A+. Thanks Again!
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.
