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.

I used NorthStar for my recent move from LA to Boston and I am very happy and satisfied with their service. The move was well-organized, the estimate was accurate and the delivery was on time with all things intact. NorthStar also kept me informed about the status of the move throughout. I would highly recommend them to anyone considering a 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!!!
So, let’s review:
Estimator on time: check.
Complete estimate, including actual travel time: check.
Crew arrived on time:check.
Finished on time: check.
Packed everything they were supposed to, and nothing they weren’t: check.
Finished the move within the time quoted: check.
Charged less than the estimate!!! CHECK! WOOT!
All in all, a very good experience. Would definitely recommend them for local moves!
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 was so impressed by Ron Cohen and the rest of the employees I dealt with at NorthStar. They made my move from Southern California to San Antonio so much easier than I could have imagined. I’ve used other moving companies before I found NorthStar. From now on, it is the only company I will use to move. I’ve even recommended it to friends who are planning their moves. Great job!!
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.
