Moving is such a stressful time and for the second time in a year this was a great experience with NorthStar. Ron Cohen came ot my house and evaluated my move. He gave me a great quote and it came in very close to the estimate. I had to change my move date 5 times…and every time i asked the answer was “no problem.” On moving Day Richard H shoed up with Miguelito K and Roberto. Richard had been one of the movers on my first move and now he was the leader. Nice to see a company promotes hard work. THe move was great. They were fast and helpful and nothing we wrong all day. I will always use northstar. THank you.

These guys are great.
I moved from one 2BR in Santa Monica to another 2BR a few blocks away. The movers showed up on time (actually 20 minutes early!) and quickly and efficiently packed up my old place and moved it to the new place, where they quickly and efficiently unpacked everything.
There was no damage to anything and the movers were all very courteous and professional.
One thing that I liked in particular was that, for a moving company, this place is very legit. They do everything with all the required forms, emails and phone calls. All of the reps are very helpful and accessible over the phone. Perhaps most importantly, they tell you about all of the charges up front, so you’re not surprised with extra fees at the end of the move.
Without question, I’d use Northstar again.

If you’re looking for the best, look no further, we found them! NorthStar Moving made our moving day so stress free and easy. We moved locally within Tarzana on July 4th, we were nervous because our date is like the busiest moving weekend of the summer. Although I am sure they were very busy that day, NorthStar made us feel like we were a priority. They were on time both at pickup and delivery. The movers worked hard the entire move, even though it was so hot! They were courteous, helpful, and very efficient. The office team that coordinated the move and called on to follow up before and after also made the entire moving process pleasant. The price is reasonable and worth it! I highly recommend them to everyone.
I can’t say enough great things about the North Star crew. We live in Costa Mesa, we have a large home, it took two trucks tomove us. Here is what they did, they did an in home estimate, made it competitive, then they delivered what they said they would, service. NorthStar packed my house in one day, moved us the second day and then came back an unpacked us. I am disabled and it was such a relief to have a crew that listened to me, took care with my belongings and wasn’t upset if I wasn’t too sure where I wanted what every time. We had a lot to move and it was confusing…they never lost patience and took the time to get it right. Nothing was broken lost or damaged.
They left Chatsworth at 5AM on Wednesday morning to be at my house by 8AM to meet their deadline, thats dedication

Like another Yelper said, excellent customer service paired with very reasonable prices.
Everybody I spoke to in the office was friendly, professional, and helpful, especially Ted. He was the coordinator assigned to my local move, and when I said that the last time I moved it was “call my friends, rent a U-Haul, and buy pizza and beer” he answered every question plus a few I didn’t think to ask.
I can’t say enough good things about my moving team – Alex, Harry and Mario. Not only did they work their butts off, but they were unfailingly polite and professional. Boxes marked “Fragile” always were put on top of the stack, and nothing broke. Even my elderly TV was well-wrapped and cared for like it was new (probably the best handling that TV’s had in years).
Thanks, NorthStar – you rock! Alex, Harry, and Mario – you rock twice!

My second move with NorthStar and BRAVO! Without a doubt from beginning to end, the most accommodating, friendly, professional, and easy move EVER! From the front office to the end of the move I do not have one complaint! The foreman and crew were terrific. They went over and beyond what I had asked for. My furniture was moved down two flights of stairs and up three… perfect condition. I put several items in storage with NorthStar… best price of any storage facility, my furniture and pictures were wrapped with care. I cannot say enough about this amazing company. Thanks!!!!
I found Northstar on Yelp and liked all the good reviews. I had moves to make, one from la to pasadena and another from my house in Palm springs to pasadena. Ilan came to my house and came up with a great price. He was amazing. Totally professional, very reasonable and was reachable by phone through the whole process. With two moves, I was very stressed and he was always there to go over any questions I had. Ask for him, he is really great. On moving day, the guys were ontime and super nice. Fausto was the moving foreman and he was fair, helpful and very friendly. Very good at his job as well. I highly recommend asking to have Miguel on your moving team. He is a small guy but by far the hardest worker and he is calm and helpful.
With two moves from big houses, with heavy furniture and stairs, I was very very pleased with Northstar.

the team led by Richard helped me to move from Ventura county to OC and beat the time line and saved me big bucks. Customer server is very good and they were working around the clock.
Great company and used it several time in couple of years.

Northstar moved us from a 3 story townhouse to an apartment. The 4 man team was professional, quick…I mean fast, polite and careful. This was the best moving company I had ever experienced. Everything was well done, and all items were received at the end in excellent condition. All items were taped and wrapped to assure safety of our possessions. I would certainly use them again, and highly recommend their services to anyone. Ron is very organized in the before preparation which also helped with a smooth move. The cost is calculated at the end, and the full estimate charge was not needed which helps alot. If you choose Northstar, you won’t be sorry.

NorthStar was fantastic!!! Wendy in Sales was wonderful and I couldn’t ask for better service.
They took the time to care and wrap my belongings. I have family antiques and I wasn’t worried when they drove away about being ruined.
I have also chosen to store my belongings at their location and that has been wonderful! It is safe, nicely packed, and their prices are much better then you will get at Public Storage.
Overall, it was a great experience and has made my move effortless and easy. I can’t recommend them enough!!!

We used NorthStar June 19, 2010 to move my boyfriend’s ex wife and son from one apt. to another in the same complex. Sounds like it should have been easy, but there was a TON of stuff to move.
We used them in April for the first move and were so impressed of course wanted to use them again. The crew was supposed to show up between 9-11am, and they were early–just like the first time. I will definitely take early over sitting around during that two hour window. Crew chief Lionel and his 3 guys were terrific–moved everything in 4 hours. Nothing broken, everything moved to the corresponding place in the new unit as it was in the old, they were great. At then end, he asked if there was anything else that needed to be moved somewhere else, but of course there wasn’t because they got it right the first time.
They will most certainly be our first call for any future moves.

Northstar was very helpful and accomodating from the get go. Their schedulers were professional. and the moving crew was friendly and efficient. Overall, they are not the cheapest, but they did everything they could to keep costs minimized. But you get what you pay for. And I think its worth a few extra dollars to get efficiency and good service. I would use them again.
My first-time hiring professional movers and I didn’t want to give my money to just anybody. The professional crew of 3 arrived early, loaded quickly, packed securely and moved us from Long Beach to South OC. I could not be more pleased with this team. Thank you!
This place is great! Long story short, excellent customer service paired with very reasonable prices. That’s a hard combo to find.
I moved from San Francisco to Chicago a few weeks ago and was very nervous about my stuff arriving late and paying too much. Wendy at Northstar helped put together my quote and eased my nerves. It also helped that the company has such great reviews on Yelp. I had only a 4-day window for delivery when I would be in Chicago to intercept the movers and Northstar made it happen. I packed most stuff myself, but they wrapped the furniture and did a great job. The movers were extremely professional and fast. They arrived late at pick-up, but that’s okay because they gave me a discount.
As the delivery got closer, I was told unexpectedly that I would incur a hefty find from my new condo building if the movers arrived on the weekend. So, I called Northstar in a panic and again they made it happen. The delivery was right on time, when I requested, extremely quick and very professional again.
I’m very impressed with this company and highly recommend them to others!

Used Northstar to move homes a few years ago and then used them again this week. They were fantastic. Both times, my contact person was Gadi. The move was planned perfectly, the guys were friendly, on time and worked their hearts out. Nothing was damaged and they came in below the estimate (which was reasonable to begin with). Our foreman was great and worked just has hard as his guys. Easily the best move we’ve ever completed. I’d hire these guys again in a second.
We used NorthStar Moving for a business move in May. They were extremely professional, helpful and accommodating when it came to planning our move after standard business hours. The movers were on time and a delight to work with. They worked quickly and made a point of being careful with our items. I would definitely recommend NorthStar to anyone looking for a business or residential moving company. Great job NorthStar! Thanks again for all of your help!
From start of inquiry to end of move – fast, clean, professional. NorthStar was the first of four companies I emailed requesting quotes to contact me – within 45 minutes of my request. I was quoted a not to exceed price the next morning by Barak – a fair price for four movers + a shuttle van for my steep driveway. Move leader Roberto and his team arrived early and went to work immediately – these guys knew what to do and did it. I felt the typical anxiety disappear instantly. They did not disappoint, moving me in half the quoted time – HALF THE TIME. Can’t imagine that this is always the case, but I tipped large and waved goodbye. I will never use any other company for moving – thanks, NorthStar
I used these guys to move offices yesterday, and I couldn’t have been more happy with my choice. They did a terrific job. They were fast, very well priced and extremely friendly. If you are thinking about moving, these guys are number one. Ilan is the man to talk to over there. he came and gave a me a free in house quote and was able to work with me to make the move the bestmove possible. I have moved a number of times and this was by far the the best move so far =)

My wife and I cant stop raving about Northstar Moving Company. Wendy was great in handling us and the 3 man crew were amazing. Thanks so much for a great move. The best move ever.
I have moved many times, both locally and coast to coast, and have used many moving companies, so I have enough experience to know when a move is done right and when it’s not. Also, I am very particular – I can’t tolerate ineptitude or sloppiness. That said, I have to say these movers were magnificent! They were LIGHTNING FAST, but they never appeared rushed. They had the patience to be sure that the big, heavy items were placed exactly where I wanted them and that they were centered and positioned properly. The lead guy, Gil, was super sharp, strategic, and intuitively knew how to be both efficient and sensitive to my needs. What’s more, they worked as a team and were as respectful of each other as they were of me, my family, and my things. I recommend them without hesitation. I know from experience how a move can go wrong – I could write a book about my negative experiences. So, I think it’s significant that this is the first time I’ve moved and have not only been satisfied, but actually happy with the outcome. Moving is difficult for many reasons, but if you work with a quality mover, it’s a huge help. From now on, I will never use another moving company.
Gadi has handled several moves for my family and my business for several years. He runs a turn key efficient operation! His crew is courteous and professional and they have handled all aspects of our moves in a timely manner.
There is no better service!

I was getting ready to move and Northstar was moving another tenant out of my building, so I thought I’d watch them to see if they might be a good company to move me. They appeared to do a great job, so several weeks later I contacted Wendy at Northstar and she was very helpful and patient and explained everything so well to me that I asked that they help with my move. It turned out to be a very good choice. Every aspect of their work was very professional. I am completely satisfied with their effort and recommend them them very highly.
This is the second time now we have used NorthStar and both times they have provided outstanding service. We just movedfrom Santa Monica to Laurel Canyon and it could not have gone smoother. From Barack coming to our home and giving us a detailed estimate, which was far cheaper than the competition, to Nick and his team completing the move on the day. The actual cost was even less than the not to exceed estimate, including the extra packing materials provided! Definitely a 10 out of 10 experience! Highly recommended.
I can not say enough about my two experiences with North Star!
The first move was as a result of leaving a bad, long term marriage. From the very moment I spoke with Wendy, I knew I was dealing with reliable professionals. The compassion was a welcome, surprise bonus!
The company kept in contact throughout the whole process, even with the SNAFU of my Ex having delivered a load of gravel to the driveway so that the van could not enter. (Funny, in retrospect only). The driver and movers were not phased in the least!
The second move went equally as smoothly.
I can not imagine using anyone else!
Thanks again.
