Review by Seth R.
I recently moved, and after examining all the options (one moving company staffed by ex-cons–SCARY, and one moving company staffed by musicians–EVEN SCARIER), we went with Northstar.
Overall, I was pretty pleased. On the plus side, they were faster and more efficient than the times I’ve gotten friends to move me. On the downside, I couldn’t pay Northstar in pizza.
Additionally, they showed up on time, got the work done, and were generally pleasant guys. They also broke down and reassembled my bed in like 30 seconds flat. Very impressive.
However, in reading the reviews, we didn’t get quite the level of service a lot of other people got. For example, everyone else seemed to get a consultation from some Moving Angel named Ron before their move. Ron made no such appearance at our place, yet we paid same rates.
There were also two scratches left on a bookcase, but it’s kind of a crappy IKEA bookcase, so I’m not too upset.
Overall, the move went well. We got the Yelp discount. We got moved. And we didn’t have to lift a finger. There were just a couple of small things that prevented a five star review.
