Absolutely amazing service. My movers were Chris, C.J., Hector B. I have never had as swift and painless a move as this. I am still reeling how quick this move went especially from LA to the Inland Empire. The total move including the drive in a little traffic was 5.5 hrs. I was initially quoted $950 for everything when a rep came to view my place in LA and with my check-in and the $50 for $125 yelp deal – it had significantly dropped my price (plus their swiftness cut the price as well). They charged me extra for the items they had shrink-wrapped and the rolls of tape they used. Overall my charge was $675. Holy crapola thats insanely cheap! Especially for their service! I have heard horror stories of movers and I was bracing myself for the bill thinking that I was quotes $950 max but there were for sure going to be other random charges that would have brought me over that estimate.
On time, courtesy calls, super quick and efficient! All my furniture is intact and they took extra care of everything. My new spot had brand new white carpets upstairs and they easily took the time to take off their shoes multiple times and were careful to not mark up the walls or carpet. I kept apologizing because I know how much of a hassle it was but they completely made me feel at ease about it all. They confirmed with me which rooms I would like the boxes or furniture pieces which made it a lot easier for me being that most were heavy as heck. I would recommend them to anyone moving. Moving is so so stressful especially if you’re anyone like me and NorthStar made everything smooth, simple, and stress free. Thank you!
Yelp Review
I’ve never really hired movers before, but I feel that it’d be tough to find a better one than NorthStar Movers. I had intended on using them to move my things from one city to another three or so years ago, but never had the opportunity to. But now that I was moving between STATES, I felt like it was a good time as ever to call.
The friendly agent on the phone mentioned that they had to schedule an estimator to come to my place to assess how much the entire move was going to be, so we settled on a date and had them come in. The estimator was a cool guy, very patient with every question me and my girlfriend had, and gave us as much information as he can even AFTER he had left after several communications via email.
Then, the actual move came. The company asks you to have half of your estimated fee for the movers and they almost arrived earlier than I had anticipated – which was not a bad thing! At the time, I needed to begin my 15 or so hour drive to become a future Northwesterner and ensuring that all my things packed were something I was certainly going to be very important to me that day. As it turned out, the lowest estimate of 4 hours (for packing and moving my stuff out of the apartment) was super accurate and they were in and out of there by lunch time.
Now, I should add that they estimate 2 days to 2 weeks, depending on how much freight they can group together and get to the same place and, on that note, I got the full 2 weeks. They, however, contacted me 24 hours prior to their drop off (as stated plenty of times during this process by a few people) and the following day, my things arrived in good condition with nothing missing! I had read a few people’s concerns, including a colleague of mine who used them to move as well, but all my things were completely intact.
Simply put, the entire experience was really smooth and fast and I’d recommend them to anyone doing long distance moves – or even short ones, at that!

Appreciate Randy, Manny and Diego today for their help with our moving. They are very efficient and conscious with the surrounding and took care of our belongings. Thank you guys! You rock!
Nelson and his crew were amazing!! They packed up our entire apartment much faster than I expected and with great care. They were on time and very organized. They made our move very easy and much less stressful! Thank you Nelson!!
Guys were the best. Super fast and efficient. Chris, CJ, and Dante were awesome. They did everything I asked and more and brought a bunch of things I happened to need. Thanks so mix guys.
Luis R., George M, and Lecca were a great help today during my sudden move. There were on time and very professional with the care of my belongings. I plan on using Northstar again for my moving and storage needs.
Great experience. Arrived on time and were very helpful considering we were not completely packed. They were very detailed in their inventory. Friendly and polite. All the antiques were wrapped well. Currently the load is in transit across the country and I feel good about it. Thanks.
Luis R, Hector B, Hector G handled my furniture and I have to say, they got the job very fast. Within two and a half hours, they cleared my one bedroom apartment. I highly recommend this moving company for those who seek a comfortable moving experience.
My move with NorthStar was a great move. It started with their customer service person who was very gracious and personable. She really took time to list en to all my plans and concerns and she helped me plan the move. Then my movers showed up on time, were very polite and professional, and were very fast in everything they did. I moved a few times in my life and although I never had a horrible experience, it was always unpleasant and unfriendly to deal with the moving company on every step of the way. I am so pleased I finally found a company which is not only professional but also nice and easy to deal with. It makes such a huge difference. Thank you, Northstar, for a great service. I will keep your information for my next move.
The crew made the tough job of moving so much less painful. The guys were cheerful and helpful all day long. Worked steadily and tirelessly until the job was done. Very happy with my experience with north star!!
