There were complicated directions to rear of apartment building to load furniture. The day before the move I faxed a map, photo and directions to North Star, but they did not give the info to the driver. As a result, we wasted 45 minutes trying to locate the truck and get it to the right place. To their credit, they did not charge us for the delay time. The crew, led by Dave Ledesman, could not have been nicer and worked very quickly. Dave was careful to explain what they were doing at every step. They packed clothes, furniture, art and dishes and glassware very efficiently. The only glitch was an antique mirror which I told them was very fragile. They convinced me that it would be safe without being packed in a box, but just sandwiched between two folded flat boxes. During the 5-mile drive to the storage unit, some of the decorative pieces fell off the mirror and broke. It can be repaired, but it will not be the same. I take some responsibility for letting them talk me into the poor packing, but they should have known better. Since they were more than fair about their time (did not take a lunch break for more than 7-hour job) I did not file a complaint. They did a great job of organizing the furniture into a 10X15 storage unit with room to spare. All in all, a very nice three-man crew and a good job.

UPDATE: After reading my review North Star called me and asked me to submit a claim for the damaged mirror and  e-mailed me a claim form. Amazing service! I will get an estimate for the repairs and submit it. They also pointed out that their faxes do not arrive at a fax machine in their office, but go into a fax queue on their computer system, so if you are going to fax something, you need to call and alert them to go into the computer and retrieve it...that is why the info never got to the driver. I thought their follow up on these two situations was fantastic.

"Dear Angie’s List Member, Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us. We always appreciate every review a client leaves for us, but we are especially appreciative when it is so obvious that someone took extra time out of their day to tell us how they feel. I would also like to express my appreciation for the time you took to get on the phone with me. I am always glad when I can improve someone’s customer service experience with our company by simple communication of the facts. Thank you for your contribution educating the Angie’s List community about our company. We are so happy to have done a good job for you and we wish you nothing but the best in your new home. Very truly yours, Wendy Paola"

After living in our Westminster, CA home for 35 years, we sold it and moved north to Rocklin, CA (northeast of Sacramento).  After hearing all of the horror stories associated with various other moving companies, we consulted Angie's List and found the highly rated Northstar Company.  We gave them a call, and they sent out a a fellow to give us an estimate.  Although the quoted price seemd high to us at that time, we had to take into consideration that we had lived in our home for 35 years, and had accumulated a lot of stuff.  Plus, all of our other moves (more than 35 years ago) had been accomplished by ourselves.  B I G difference.  Anyway, we decide to use Northstar. The movers they sent (Jacinto, Joshep, Mattew, and Issic M) were absolutely amazing!!  They arrived on time (9:30 a.m.) and immediately went to work wrapping all of our furniture and loading it onto the truck  We had a large number of already packed boxes, PLUS at lot of stuff from our 2-car garage.  After seeing these fellows in action, it became quite clear that there is NO WAY we could have accomplished this kind of a move ourselves (we are over 65).  These fellows are professionally-trained movers--and it showed.  It was incredible how efficiently they packed the truck--made every inch of space count.  They finished at 5:30 p.m.  Since we were moving 500 miles north, and had not yet purchased a new home, we had to rent a storage unit to store our belongings for the time being.  Northstar arrived on time at the storage unit, and the 3-man team was again headed by Jacinto.  Amazingly, they unloaded the contents of the truck into our storage unit in less than 2 hours--and made everything fit into a 10 x 25 unit.  Amazing!  
We just bought a new home,and will be ready to move in to it in about 3 weeks.  Of course, we will be contacting Northstar again to facilitate this move.  We HIGHLY RECOMMEND Northstar to anyone and everyone who needs outstanding, professionally-trained, and polite movers!  Thanks Northstar and Angie's List!  You both rock!!

Movers (4) arrived promptly as scheduled. They moved  boxes and furniture from garage into their truck. They shrank wrapped living and bed room furniture and loaded them onto truck. Upon arrival in Oceanside, they moved boxes and furniture into the garage and house and assembled dining room table and bed room beds. They were careful and professional. They also accommodated transporting a couple of large plants in pots that weren't originally listed.

Ryan and the crew arrived on time - actually, 10 minutes before the accorded time, which was great. They packed up and moved all our stuff out of our condo and into our new home quickly, neatly, and efficiently. They made what would have otherwise been a major stress, into an easy experience. 
I would recommend them and will hire them again in the future.

It went well overall. The leader of the group was fantastic. He was enthusiastic, organized, motivated and strong and kept every one else on point. They were a group of about 5 men that did the entire move. By the end of the move, I would say one of the five men showed signs of being tired and became a little clumsy with lifting and placing heavy furniture but oerv all they were pretty good.
They were at out home early, which we liked. Once they started the job, they moved quickly so it helps to have everything that's boxed ready to go and stuff that needs boxing to be in another area (out of the way so they're not slowed down).

It was fairly good. I didn't spend anything extra. They did loading and unloading. They didn't ask me what I needed so thy ended up bringing a vehicle that was larger than I needed and that would be my only complaint. The staff was good.
