This company is great. We have moved 4 times in the last 10 years and used 3 different moving companies and Northstar was the best of all. They were the lowest bid and the material amounts they quoted we’re accurate. They also gave use a not-to-exceed price after doing their virtual walk-through. Other companies did not want to give us fixed price bids and added extra movers to the quote that we did not need.
The first day of packing they rolled out mats to protect the floors and did a walk through to make sure they understood exactly what we wanted them to move. The three-man team was really careful and respectful of our belongings and even moved a fridge that was not in the bid.
After the packing was done, they came back the next day to move our stuff, which filled up their 26 foot truck almost entirely. They were professional and even suggested an alternate storage unit after the one we had secured had issues.
The whole time they worked really hard and we felt we definitely got our money worth. They showed up on time and also called ahead each day. They also gave us updates throughout the whole process so we knew it was going smoothly. Without a doubt I would recommend them to anyone no matter how are or small their move is.
A couple of tips regardless of any company you choose:
Buy them lunch if you can and tip them 10% or more if you are happy with the job.
