Review Analysis
Moving made easy—customers rave about NorthStar Moving Company’s attention to detail and professionalism. Nearly every review highlights careful handling of belongings, friendly and efficient movers, strong communication, and smooth, fast moves. Packing and delivery stand out for being prompt and worry-free.
Many customers praise the team’s respect for their homes and property and note responsiveness from staff before and after the move—the kind of reliability rarely seen in moving services. A handful of people report serious problems, with missing items, property damage, or broken valuables as main concerns. These dissatisfied customers also mention difficult claims processes and unanswered communication, which put NorthStar below the gold standard set by industry leaders despite its outstanding consistency for most clients. With 93% positive input from 43 reviews, NorthStar’s high marks on execution and care make it a top choice, though occasional missteps with lost goods and problem resolution call for caution for those with irreplaceable valuables.
