NorthStar recently moved me from L.A. to NW Indiana in the middle of winter. Eric and his crew in California and Haji and his crew in Indiana were fantastic — on time, under budget and no lost items. The folks on the phone (props to Tori) were also top-notch. They scheduled my move and walked me through all the steps with minimum hassle, and then kept me posted as things progressed. Overall, this is a great outfit that delivers a highly professional service with a personal touch, and at a very reasonable price. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend NorthStar to my friends.
Testimonials
Northstar did a wonderful job with our move. They were professional, pleasant, and handled all of our stuff with great care. We couldn’t have been happier with our move. I would highly recommend this company.
Moving is stressful. It sucks. Nobody likes the process, so these guys are a lifesaver. They make life easier and as stress free as possible.
The people on the phone and on the actual move were all awesome. Tori helped me on the phone she was great in getting me through the options and Guy H. and his crew moved my crap fast. Get the extra mover guy to help out; 3 people is just a small upgrade in price, but it goes much faster.
They have moving blankets and tape and can help you get everything squared away and are great about wrapping tv’s, mattresses, etc. Reasonable price too; worth the cost so you don’t have to bug your friends to help and the truck rental etc.
Moving is always going to suck, but these guys make it suck less.

Earlier this year I moved from LA county to South Orange County and they were a huge help. The movers showed up on time, actually a little early. They were friendly and very professional, and funny. While on the freeway, they were great. The drive in traffic was about an hour, and no one got lost or anything. All my things were delivered in perfect condition.
After reading reviews on this website for movers, I was thinking maybe I needed to drive myself to California and bring it to Ga. Northstar was great!!!! I cannot say enough, they were attentive to our belongings , our needs, our budget. We were not able to meet them in Ca, so our uncle met them and he was equally impressed. Thank you for taking great care of our stuff, being here on time, and being courteous. If we ever move again, we have your number. Big Kudos To Assi, Tom and Adam. Awesome work ethic and believe me I find that truly hard to find these days. The estimate remained the same no extras!!!!!
I’ve moved from NY to LA or LA to NY four times in the last six years. This year I did it again and for the first time used Northstar. By far my best experience. Ron the estimator got my weight correct within 50 pounds the day he came to give me a price. The guys that packed up the house were fantastic and fast, as were the unload guys on the other end. And the dispatch and office people were all super friendly and responsive. That doesn’t mean there weren’t a few small problems here and there, but these things come up all the time when you are moving across country, and every single time Northstar’s people went out of their way to make it right. I never felt like they were trying to give me the runaround or jack the price up. I highly recommend them.
After reading bunch of great reviews on Northstar Moving, I decided to hire them despite getting a few other recommendations for other moving companies from friends. It was one of those do I trust numerous reviews on Internet or go with single instances of good experiences by friends. I decided to trust the internet and went with Northstar and I don’t have any regrets.
Spoke with Wendy 5 days before the move and she quoted me an hourly rate based on how many guys she though I would need. Gave me 5% off for being a yelper. She told me the guys would be at my apartment between 8am and 10am. 4 guys lead by Joel showed up at 8am on the dot the day of. Had my old apartment packed into the truck in 3 hours. It was amazing how quickly yet carefully they took all my staff away. And it only took them 1 hour to put all my staff in my new place.
They performed well beyond my expectation. Five stars!

I would just like to say thank you to all at Northstar Moving for making our move fast and painless. I think I speak for most people that finding fair and professional movers can be like looking for a needle in a haystack. But Northstar’s group of guys (Gil, Herberto, Ernesto) took really good care of me and my wife (and everything we own). They were fast, friendly, and professional… A great team!

Joel and his crew showed up early and were very efficient and hard working, as well as being pleasant to deal with. I would definitely recommend North Star based upon our experience.
I just finished my move with NorthStar yesterday and had a great experience. Ricardo (or Richard) and his crew member were great. Not only were they prompt, they were actually early and I was the one who wasn’t ready.
I chose to have them pack me up and it was by far the best $800 I spent to save my sanity. Just to give you Yelpers a frame of reference, I moved out of a studio – thus the lower pricetag. From start to finish, Ricardo and his crew member worked efficiently and barely even took a break. They were gracious and made sure everything was thoroughly protected and labeled. I believe my move took a grand total of six hours. And this was me not packing a SINGLE THING – they did ALL the work.
When I made the reservation, the staff was helpful and thorough and gave me an incredibly accurate estimate of how much it would cost. They were very flexible when I made some changes a few days before.
I would definitely recommend them to all my friends and will be using them again the next time I move. Awesome job!

I called NorthStar on short notice for a move at the end of the month in Berkeley, CA. While all the other companies I called were busy, NorthStar was able to accommodate me. Even when I had to cancel at the last minute and then call back the next day to get the move appointment again, NorthStar was flexible and still had the slot to move my family.
The team was courteous, efficient, and careful with our fragile pieces. I have used a lot of moving companies in the past few years, and NorthStar was by far the most patient and professional from the first call to the final box. Furthermore, their prices were below the rates of their competition. I give them my highest recommendation.
Hey thanks to NorthStar Moving, we moved, let’s see, I think it’s been, four times in the last seven years and I gotta tell ya I wish I would had these guys for every move, they did a great job, very professional and I even liked their uniforms so thanks much to NorthStar Moving.
OK I’ve moved many times in the past always with mixed results. But I have to say hands down these folks have got it together on all levels. From the first phone call, to packing, loading, unloading and set up, Arial and his crew were total pros.
I went with Northstar based on the Yelp reviews. Now I’m glad to share the good word. No need to look anywhere else.
Thanks Northstar

Alright, thank you NorthStar Moving. The job was great. Everything arrived safe and very quickly. I highly recommend them.
NorthStar was great to work with. From setting up the move/storage arrangements to the crew on-site. All were professional and well organized. A lot of brand new items were moved into storage and they were packed so well that I’m sure they’ll come out of storage looking as new as the day they went in. Thanks NorthStar!!
We recently moved from Southern California to Northern Oregon, and used Northstar moving after doing tons of research. We’ve never used a professional mover before, and after hearing all the horror stories from everyone and their mother, we decided to give Northstar a chance based on their staggering number of positive reviews.
I won’t go too far into specifics, but needless to say, I’m so happy we decided to go with Northstar. The experience was just fantastic. There was no drama, so surprises, and the professionalism was second to none.
Wendy at the main office was so helpful and completely willing to answer any and all of my myriad of questions. Angel and his team in LA were fast, efficient, and curteous. And Walt and his guy up in Oregon made the drive in three days, and unloaded everything within two hours. They even negotiated some rather sharp turns with the 18-wheeler in our new parking lot with total ease.
And aside from some minor bumps and bruises, our stuff arrived intact, and nothing was lost. Only two small things broke, but they are unimportant, and totally my fault based on how I packed them. So no harm done.
So thanks Northstar, you really made an incredibly stressful situation so much easier to handle. When you don’t have to worry about your stuff getting lost or broken, being held hostage, or if/when it’ll show up, you can really focus on the important things during a move. I’m recommending Northstar to everyone that I know back in LA, and if you’re reading this review, I hope you’ll give them a chance.
Thank you NorthStar Moving. Your move was great. Appreciate it. Thank you. Say buh bye. Buh bye.
I just wanted to say thank you to NorthStar Moving. I’ve been using NorthStar Moving for almost 15 years maybe a little bit more than that. I’ve known of Ram and communicated with him over the years. This is a great company, it’s the only company I would ever considered using. My parents and friends have used them and I highly recommend them and again they arrive promptly, everybody is professional and courteous and they did a great job. Thank you again, NorthStar Moving.
We just moved from a two bed, one bath place in West Hollywood to a two-level two bed, three bath in West L.A. We had received a quote of $740 from a flat rate company, but thought we could get a better rate. In the end, we decided to go with NorthStar and ended up completely satisfied with our decision.
They showed up right on time and ready to work. They did not dally or take unnecessary breaks. They were careful; we had one minor incident where a piece of our credenza chipped off, but it was already damaged so we weren’t surprised at the chip and do not hold them responsible. They were also polite and had extremely positive attitudes, despite impending rain and difficult conditions (see below). We worked with Ariel and two other guys (Carlos was one, but I forgot the others’ name).
In the end, even with the logistical problems, the price was $150 less than we were quotes by the flat rate company. This is remarkable because we ran into SERIOUS logistical problems on the move-in end — we were unable to lock the elevator, so we had to share it with others while we moved in. This slowed the movers down considerably (although they tried their best to deal with it and — despite it not being their fault whatsoever — continually apologized for not being able to move as fast as they would like). If we had not had to deal with this elevator issue, I am sure the price would have been much lower, still.
In sum, the movers worked efficiently and carefully. We trusted them with our things and felt at ease with them in our apartment. I definitely recommend this company and would use them again for sure.

Thank you NorthStar Movers, you did a great job, we really appreciate it. Thank you very much!
Thank you to NorthStar Moving. They were excellent. Helped me through a rough move, on time, very professional and did things very quickly. I appreciate all the help.
Thank you to NorthStar Moving for moving me today, everything was perfect. My second time. Very good.
Richard and his crew are amazing! They took the stress of my move off my shoulders. All I had to do was take five minutes to direct where and what I wanted and they took care of everything for me. They were friendly, efficient, hard working.
If the time comes where I need to move or make a recommendation, I HIGHLY recommend these guys.
Thank you Richard and crew, and North Star for taking such good care of me.

Northstar is SMART. They know that enthusiastic word-of-mouth will get them more business than a Yellow Pages ad, and so their business model is based on making their customers happy. They invest in it. Moving is a leap of faith and can be quite emotional – you’re entrusting your entire estate into someone else’s hands, as well as making a big change in your life. Do yourself a favor and do it with these guys. For a competitive price, I received premium service. From Wendy who worked with me to get the ball rolling. To Ilan, who personally came out and gave me an estimate that he guaranteed wouldn’t be more than what the contract said. To Juan Carlos, Jaime Pevromo, Miguel Garcia, and Rafael who packed and on-loaded our stupidly-heavy furniture – sometimes on their BACKS – with the strength of Norse gods and the easy, sweet attitudes of relaxed surfers: they treated everything as though it was their grandmother’s and did a more thorough job of packing and protecting than I would have done myself. Our off-loading crew, Jesus, Juan Carlos, Giovani, Ramir, and Matt had the additional burden of trying to find parking for a 22-foot truck in downtown San Francisco (I’m too embarrassed to admit to how long it took them – it’s my fault), but they handled everything with great style and grace. Even the dispatchers on the phone – such as Cesar – were exceptional – they speeded up my delivery date – just to help me get into my job faster.
Honestly, if every company acted like they really cared about what customers would say about them – they would act more like Northstar. I can’t say enough nice things about these guys. Responsible, professional, competitive, and customer-focused. You won’t be disappointed if you go with them.
