On time.  Dependable.  Awesome Rates.  Highly recommend and will definitely use their services again!
“Woohoo! As good as it gets!” is the default Yelp message that pops up when you give a company 5 stars.  This is my fourth time using NorthStar, and I can honestly say that their moving service lives up to it.  Moving is stressful, but NorthStar makes it so much easier.  They bring 3 movers and a big truck and a bunch of moving supplies.  They take care not to damage anything.  For instance, my artwork got wrapped properly and despite the fact that it’s fragile, it came to the new place pristine!  Same with my furniture.  They do all the heavy lifting and work efficiently.  I *highly* recommend NorthStar for your next move!
So I’m used to moving all my stuff from one apartment to the next on my own but this time I decided to hire movers. First because both places (moving from and to) had an insane amount of stairs and second because I just bought a new bed and it’s a pain in the @ss to take it apart and put it back together by yourself.
From the initial phone call with Nancy, to Junior and his crew arriving on time and coordinating the job, Northstar was nothing but professional and efficient! They had tons of garment boxes and packing supplies on hand. And best of all, they didn’t purposely drive slow from one location to the next so they could charge me more.
I shopped around for movers and some of these companies (like Hippo movers) were total money-grubbing, sleezy, @ssholes. Boy am I glad I gave my money to northstar movers instead.
This was my third time in 20 years using NorthStar for a move.  I am so grateful that they have maintained their high level of professionalism in all that time. My home is under remodel while we are living in it.  Mario, Lamore & team were great at helping me figure out where all the furniture from the living room and dining room could fit in other rooms & moving items between multiple floors.   Most importantly, they were great at keeping me calm when I was stressing out over other things. This was not an easy job as they were moving antiques, heavy marble tables and oversized pieces up stairs,  around tough corners and into small spaces.  They have extremely reasonable rates, arrived on time & called ahead as promised. They do charge extra for wrapping delicate items but it’s worth the time & expense to keep items nick-free and safe. Given how reasonable their hourly rate is, pay the extra (!) since anyone who cares about their antiques should oversee the process and wrapping themselves.  Don’t expect the movers to have the knowledge of an antique dealer & automatically know the value of your grandmother’s dining room chair set;  but if you tell them, they handle items with kid gloves.
I highly recommend this company.  I will be using them again next month when all this renovation madness is over and everything goes back into its place!

This was by far the best experience I’ve ever had with movers. Kevin P and Jesus G were my movers and they were OUTSTANDING. They were super nice and helpful…fulfilling every request. They were also quick and efficient. And…they got my stuff home without one scratch. I couldn’t be any happier with my experience. I will definitely be using them again for the next move!

Great Company. Needed a moving company on short notice, and they came through big. They came in, got right to work, and had great attitudes. They also have a great customer service department, which followed up before and after the move to check in.
We are just wrapping up the first part of our move from Oakland to Vancouver, Washington.  Kevin and his crew did an AWESOME job today.  We had prepped and packed for almost a week, and were ready when the crew showed up.  Kevin was professional, helpful, and friendly as were the entire crew of 5.  We have a 4-level house in the Oakland hills, and it is difficult to get to.  From the moment they arrived, the crew went to work and didn’t take a single break.  They got our 3,100 square foot house loaded into their truck in four hours, all with a great attitude and attention to detail.  They were the hardest working team we have ever seen.  We were pleasantly surprised, as we have always moved our own stuff, and this is the first time we have used professional movers.  We could not be more pleased. 

Even though the price had a lot of add-ons from the original quote, we had a LOT more stuff than we thought and the weight came out well above the initial cost.  This was anticipated and Jason at dispatch made it all clear ahead of time, so there was no confusion.

Overall, I would HIGHLY recommend NorthStar, and in particular, Kevin.  He was super professional, friendly, and helpful to us throughout the process. THANKS MUCH!!

These guys are as professional as it gets.  They arrived on time, had all the packing equipment we needed to protect the furniture and fragile items.  They worked so fast, had our 2 bedroom/2 bathroom apartment packed up in no time at all.  The 3 of then were also courteous and had a very positive, can-do attitude. Moving can be very stressful, but this one was the easiest I’ve ever done thanks to Northstar. They handled furniture disassembly and reassembly too, which was amazing since I had lost the instructions to several of the items like the entertainment cabinet.  I have to say that I would absolutely use this company again, and would recommend them to a friend or colleague without hesitation.  I’d use them even if they cost twice what they do, very affordable and excellent experience. Ask for Jesse, Emanuel and Emannuel, you will NOT regret it!

Vatche  and his crew from NorthStar made moving a surprisingly smooth and painless experience. They arrived early and moved quickly. They wrapped all my furniture COMPLETELY, leaving no areas exposed which could get dirty or scratched (i.e. mattress, sofa, tables). I didn’t need to tell them anything as they were very experienced and professional, knowing exactly what to do.
All I had to do was sit back and watch them work. I would use this company again 100%, especially this crew.

Thanks Vatche @ NorthStar
Amazing experience!!! This is my first time moving with North star moving and I was very much supprised by the team! I had a 3 man crew move out a 2 bedroom apartment In 3 hours. All my stuff were secured and protected with shrink wrap so we had no damages and no breaks. I was very happy with the team, they were funny and fast working, we really had a good experience with them and I would gladly use them on my next move. I hope this feedback helps:)
