kevin, tobias and austin helped me move from oakland to san francisco today in 5 hours flat. they also helped to pack some of my kitchen (i ran out of boxes!) and they moved my super heavy, 100% latex mattress with no complaints! they were super kind, efficient and friendly - and even put back together my couch with a smile.
the women i spoke to on the phone who booked and confirmed my appointment were really informative, patient, professional and friendly as well.
i would totally recommend this moving company, and hope that you get this crew of gentlemen to help you out !Helpful 4Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Communicative, efficient, and reliable movers for my move from SF to NYC. Took about 2 weeks for my stuff to arrive. Friendly staff throughout, from the video call quote to the final move in.

I used them to move from LA to San Jose. From San Jose to San Francisco. And back to LA. All over about a six year period. My dealings with the folks on the phone were all standard, nothing special.
The guys who came on both ends of the move all three times were fantastic. Friendly, engaging, hard working and efficient. They're the reason I don't shop around for another company. I always buy them lunch and soft drinks and tip generously. They always take care of me very well.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Megan B.Tampa, FL01217Oct 12, 2021
The guys from Northstar were truly exceptional. They were so fast, efficient, and careful with our belongings. We would use this company again in a heartbeat, I really can't find the words to express our gratitude.
There's nothing that I can say to improve their service. They are reliable, on time, and worked very quickly. Their professionalism definitely calmed our nerves.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

This was my second move using Northstar. They were responsive at every point, efficient, and conscientious. I hope i won't be moving again any time soon, but if so, i wouldn't hesitate to call Northstar. I especially appreciate that they provide a "not to exceed" price, so no surprises.

Best move ever! Everything from booking to confirmation to being on time, efficient, and super knowledgeable. The team even transported a very expensive piece of art for me and it was not charged extra, they wrap everything as well. Thank you!!! Will definitely recommend!

I think if you take the Real Age test online, moving adds a year to your life. Moving is awful. "Soul sucking" might be the most apt term to describe the whole experience. But, if you have to move, NorthStar is the best option for professional movers in the Bay Area. I requested several quotes from various moving companies. North Star was the first to respond--and they offered the lowest quote. Other companies charge the same hourly rate, but tack on a hefty gas fee. NorthStar doesn't. With the yelp deal, NorthStar comes out to be a much better deal than any other mover I saw. Their customer service was consistently extremely good. And the movers themselves are polite, professional, and efficient. These guys were awesome. Although I paid for a three man crew, they threw in a fourth mover free since he was working on a larger job later in the day. I'm also pretty sure they generously underestimated the drive and move time total (California law requires that they charge double drive time. When I learned this, I threatened yet again to move to New Hampshire. Live free or die, baby). I paid the 3 hour minimum for my move from San Mateo County to Marin County.
If you want to mnimize the stress of moving, save yourself some time and book NorthStar--it isn't even worth the time to research other movers.Helpful 21Thanks 0Love this 18Oh no 0Business owner information
