Although they were running behind schedule, they made sure to communicate with us and still got the job done within the two hour window. Super professional, super quick and we are very happy we chose to work with them!

These guys (Kenneth and Kevin) showed up on time and got the job done ahead of time but more importantly put all my concerns with space and packing at ease. S.T.A.R. Moving took extra care to the fragile and important belongings I had and upon arriving at my destination - everything was perfectly intact. I couldn't recommend them more!

We had 2 movers for 2 hours for a 16' container. They were on time, efficient, got everything done, placed boxes and furniture in the rooms where they belonged, and offered to help with assembly. I highly recommend! We live in an upstairs apartment and the container couldn't be placed directly outside our door, so they had a short walk and a flight of stairs for every trip. I don't know how they can do that many stairs in a day, but they made it look easy. This was my first time hiring help, and I plan to do it every time I move in the future. Worth it!

Very professional. Handled my belongings with care. Able to expertly pack all of my belongings in one POD saving me money. Kevin Clark and his two associates had very positive and cheerful attitudes the whole time. Highly recommend this crew. They know what they are doing.

These guys were absolute rockstars! They were so accommodating due to timelines shifting with fires. They were incredibly professional. They were self directed. I honestly wish we had more stuff to move so I could keep giving them more of our money! My wife and I are already talking about how we might secure them for when we move again! HIRE THESE GUYS!

S.T.A.R. Moving was great to work with. They were right on time. They put everything where I requested without hesitation particularly the big and heavy items. The two gentlemen that came were very nice and friendly. I would definitely use again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to others.

Get To Know Us

What can a customer expect after booking with you?

You now have a friend in the moving business. Whether you need expert advice on the best way to handle a single item, or cross country logistics, I am obliged to advise. Lines of communication are always open with us. There's enough to worry about with moving, let us burden the weight of it. When you book with us, you can now relax; we will take care of the rest. You can expect consistent updates up until the day of your move, as well as any good moving jokes if you just need a laugh along the way.

What can a customer expect on moving day if they hire you?

A courtesy call can always be expected when we are on our way to you with an exact ETA. Updates are always available if you have a time frame of our arrival if you need, without being bothersome. When we show up we take a moment to stretch, orientate ourselves with your project goals, game-plan while we gather gear, and then hit the ground running. A steady and consistent pace will begin to quickly melt away any previous stresses. By the end, you may even say "That was fun!".

How should a customer prepare for moving day?

Anything you are able to disassemble, unplug, or prepare before our arrival is putting money back into your pocket. We always come ready to handle anything, but your level of preparedness is one of the largest factors determining how much we can get done as quickly as possible. Family heirlooms or irreplaceable items should have special arrangements made for them or be brought immediately to our attention to make proper accommodations. We also let to set up your new house, so being available helps.

We can handle anything from bring your groceries in from the curb, or relocating your 10,000 sq ft office on the top floor downtown.
