NorthStar Moving Company

Description of Work: Communication was smooth.

Description of Work: They moved the big stuff and all the boxed stuff from Sunnyvale to Mountain View. Now I have to go through all the boxed stuff. (sigh)

Description of Work: Packed and moved me. They were on time and very professional. My singular complaint is a scratch on my wood floors where they placed my entertainment center. Other than that it was as pleasant an experience as moving can be. Their booking/support center/office was a joy to work with as well.

Description of Work: Second time using Northstar to move our home. Very pleased with service and care provided to our belongings.

Description of Work: They packed and moved all of my furniture, clothes, etc... from San Francisco to the Palm Springs area. Everything arrived in good condition, all staff were friendly and hard working.

Description of Work: Receptionist was rude and chewed her lunch in my ear and talked so fast I could talk loud enough or quick enough for her to slow down. |The person who was suppose to come out to give a quote cancelled because he was sick. I went ahead and rescheduled but decided before he arrived to choose a different vendor and he pretty much hung up on me.

Description of Work: I needed to get a move into storage executed on short notice. Having worked with other moving companies on previous moves. I was impressed with their ability to get a move scheduled with less than 10 days notice. | |The crew that showed up exactly on time. They were ruthlessly efficient at getting things boxed and onto the truck. At no point in time did I feel like they were being less than cautious with everything from furniture to kitchen items. | |Moving out of an entire 2 story 2 bedroom 1200 SQ foot house was completed stem to stern by a crew of three in approximately 5 1/2 hours. That included a lot of boxing and crating of items. | |While Northstar while not the cheapest option certainly seems to be a "you get what you pay for" option. The value for dollars spent is certainly there. I would use them again for another move.

Description of Work: To provide context, I used Northstar Moving just one year ago - moving from a 2B/1Ba house to a 2B/1Ba apartment on the 2nd floor about a 5 minute drive away. They were good, worked really fast but maybe a little too fast as they marked up walls-floors. But the overall cost was $500. | |This time around we moved from the 2B/1Ba apartment to a 2B/1Ba house - again 5 minutes away. This time it cost $1,100 and I actually had to stop the movers because I did not want to pay even more. | |To be fair, we had purchased 2-3 Ikea bookshelves since our last move but the cost difference just did not make sense - a 2B/1Ba move less than a mile away with 3 people taking almost 6 hours. | |The crew was actually great - did things like tape bookshelves together inside-out so that the sticky side did not ruin the finish of the shelves - but probably due to my comments the last time around, they meticulously wrapped everything (including wireframe shelves), which just took way too much time. | |I made the cardinal mistake of only getting one quote for a move because I liked/trusted Northstar. I will be more careful next time.

Description of Work: Moved from CA to Ohio

Description of Work: The movers were punctual, hard working, and careful. There were some fees we weren't expecting (tape, for example), but overall we were please and would use them again.

Description of Work: Move

Description of Work: They moved my furniture (about 1,200 pounds weight) from Northern California to Henderson, NV at minimal costs. They are truly professional mover. Their cost was better than even local movers. I will definitely use them again.

Description of Work: I called only for what their rates are and possible dates of availability. During the discussion about rates, the woman asked for my email address so that she could send me their rates. I did NOT authorize her to book a date for the move. But I learned two weeks later that their truck would be showing up and to call to confirm! So they actually booked one of the dates that I asked about and had sent a "confirmation" email message that I missed because it did not have their company name in it and looked like spam. I do not like tactics like this so will not ever use them in any future moves.

Description of Work: It was a stromy Monday when the team moved us from a 4 bedroom home to a 2 bedroom cottage. Very hard workers with a good attitude. Would recommend Northstar Movers in a heartbeat!

Description of Work: I selected Northstar Moving due to price, as well as professionalism of the estimator. (Ron was great!) All my dealings with the company up until the delivery day were great, and I found Northstar to be very responsive and flexible related to my move. | |My only disappointment was on delivery day. The entry stairway walls got very scuffed up during the move, and no wall or floor protection was put in place or even offered. In addition, the movers dropped a couple pieces of furniture. They were antiques. Fortunately undamaged. The movers also left lots of empty cardboard boxes and packing material, rather than taking it away. (In my previous moves the movers removed all packing materials for items they unboxed during the move, and I had expected this from Northstar as well.) | |I would use Northstar again, and would recommend them to others. I just wish I'd known about the box situation and also wish they'd protected my new home a bit better.

Description of Work: They carefully wrapped my two large pieces of furniture and my bed and mattress set. They protected the carpet and stairs with a covering and they were very efficient with packing everything into the truck. Overall they were efficient and conscientious. I highly recommend them.

Description of Work: They did a great job consolidating an apartment and two storage units in our move to a townhouse.

Description of Work: moving

Description of Work: We got a quote for our move.

Description of Work: This was a Big Deal for $50.00 for $150.00 worth of moving services. They provided moving services. Everything turned out fine. We were very happy with the service. They were friendly to work with.

Description of Work: I purchased a Big Deal from Northstar Moving Company.
