I recently moved from California to Texas. My experience with the service from Moving Star was amazing! From the beginning discussions and explanation of the the process to the actual packing, transportation and delivery of my furniture was excellent. Everything was done on time and in the same condition as it was went it left California. in addition the movers were very friendly and answered all my questions. I highly recommend Moving Star! read more

In the last 20 years we've moved houses every 2 years. So we've seen many moving companies and experienced the various ways it can be done. Moving star was by far the best experience we've had! The team was very kind, professional and did a fantastic job. We all hate moving, but when it's done with a great team it makes a major difference. read more

Thank you for a great service. I paid for a door to door service from California to Israel, Avner was patient, and help me through this process, I warmly recommend. read more

They moved us from the bay area to the Sacramento area. The quote was reasonable since they were going to move my husband's workshop which was an enormous task so we picked them. They also had a recommendation from our real estate agent. The person who packed our kitchen did an awesome job. Unfortunately the remainder of the 5 person crew was not as good. some boxes were marked with vague descriptions that didn't include room names so we've had to open everything to find things. They didn't do near the same quality of job as the kitchen with the garage. There were multiple items that were broken. They manhandled the cabinets and tools. Some cabinets and tables were so stressed that we had to repair them to use again. One item of particular value was broken. Don't do a huge job in one day. Crew got tired and the quality of packing showed. Unpacking at our new location was challenging. Since furniture went in first and boxes last, the truck was unloaded the same way. Boxes were put in rooms before furniture placed. Some of their workers wouldn't listen to directions so things got moved a lot more than needed. It would have been more efficient to put the boxes aside so they could unload and set up furniture. Then put the boxes on the furniture where it belonged. You would think an experienced crew would know how to pack and unload more efficiently. read more

These are the absolute best guys! They know the business and are extremely professional and safe with your precious belongings from storage to transit! They are like family and treat you like you are their family!!! read more

We moved with Moving Star from CA to Israel and we couldn't have been happier with the experience end 2 end. Avner and his team have done great work, whether it is the move itself, answering questions promptly and comprehensively or just delivering on each of the things they committed to do. Strongly recommended! read more

I'm very happy to share this review. Avner and Gil (and the moving crew) we're extremely professionals and we had a great experience. I've had some bad experiences with movers and that made me feel very uncomfortable dealing with them again. When we shopped around for a moving service this time I had a few coming in that reminded me why I should be wary. But when we meet Avner both my wife and I felt we're dealing with a different persona. They're quote want the cheapest one and when we asked them for reduction as we got other quotes, Avner pointed out all the hidden fees the others weren't sharing. When I confronted the two others I realized their quote was not only competitive but also was reassured I'm not going to get stung... The moving day went very smoothly. The level of service was great and the movers we're very kind. Avner and Gil called a few times to make sure we were satisfied from the level of service. We had some furniture left for donations and they brought an additional truck just to haul them (no charge) to needed people. Very not taken for granted! I must say credit is due where credit is due. This was a seamless and headacheless experience. I'd highly recommend utilizing their services as we felt taken care of and reassured read more

My husband and I relocated from San Francisco to Munich Germany in April of 2010. After getting a few different bids (money was not the deciding factor when it came to selecting a company because my husbands company paid for our relocation expenses 100%) we went with Moving Star/Rainier because they were professional, straight forward, extremely easy to communicate with and were willing to work with us in getting our car shipped over, which was a huge hassle. *If you are planning on moving a car overseas it is imperative that you select a moving company who has experience with this and who is extremely knowledgeable in regards to the regulations/requirements/potential problems at the various ports, which Moving Star IS. * The move went flawlessly. On move day, the team they sent to pack up our life took care with our things as though it was their own (you should see how carefully they wrapped our mattress!!! Even our box spring!!!). Every one of our items (including our new car) arrived, to our door in Germany, without a scratch and within the time they had quoted us. Aside from the fact that our household goods AND CAR made it to us without a single problem, one of the main reasons we will be using Moving Star again when we relocate back to SF this Spring is because they are so easy to communicate with which was/is a huge deal to me. Particularly when I was homesick and sleeping on an half deflated air mattress that we borrowed from some Italian guy, in an empty apartment, in a VERY foreign country. They were always available to us if we needed anything,or had any questions, before the move, during the move and after our items had been delivered and signed off. No email ever went unanswered, no phone call ignored. We were provided with a contact person at each location. They delivered (which is why we hired them, right?) what they promised and both my husband and myself were very impressed. I admit, I cried a little when they brought up our bed. Moving your personal stuff from one country to another has got to be the most stressful part of relocating overseas, aside from not knowing the language in the country you are going to. You have to hire people who know what they are doing. We highly recommend them!! Rainier / Moving Star: Thank you SO much for working with us!! I feel like we totally scored with you guys and hiring you guys again for the move back home was a no-brainer. We wouldn't hire anyone else. THANK YOU! (excuse any grammar situations, I've got a 7 month old baby who still doesn't sleep through the night, or nap...I'm a wee bit tired) read more

MovingStar were a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. Their team were simply outstanding with our recent international relocation. They are extremely professional and went above and beyond to help us with a complicated move. Their operation is highly organized and their staff are all efficient and responsive and went out of their way to be helpful. I would be very happy to use them again. Having done 4 international moves I wouldn't hesitate to use MovingStar again. They are the best company we've worked with. read more

I highly recommend Moving Star for international & domestic shipping. I mostly communicated with Avner who is very professional, responsive and friendly. It was a pleasure to use his service and everything arrived sooner than expected. I personally looked at multiple options for shipping and I'm glad I chose Moving Star. read more

I recently had a container shipped from France to California. Moving Star was the chosen company to track my container, retrieve it from the port of Oakland, and transport it to their warehouse in Fremont. Throughout the process, they were thorough and excellent with communication, and I felt very assured that they were knowledgeable working with customs and the port authorities. They worked with me to find an agreeable time to have me come to their warehouse and watch the unloading of my container as they knew I wanted to grab a few items I had been waiting for. The team at the warehouse was friendly and efficient. They carefully unloaded the container and separated the contents to make it easy for me to find things in storage. They even sent a video and pictures of the first opening of the container so that I could see exactly how the contents arrived. Overall, they are a great company to work with and I definitely recommend them. They also offer storage at their warehouse. Great experience. read more

We used Moving Star for a Bay Area (CA) to Park CIty (UT) in December 2015. Great job and would recommend to others. Had tight schedules with moving cars and setting up on the Utah side. Avner helped make our dates happen. Made us feel comfortable they could handle our 3 bedroom move (but really 4-5 bedrooms of stuff + garage and outdoor items), especially into a winter environment. Professional in-house packers who worked tirelessly to get our items all packed. And not a single damaged item on other end. Sure, some timing on the packing and move in dates wasn't to the hour but within a very acceptable range. Thanks Avner and your team. read more

Moving Star company was recommended to me by a friend when I moved to Europe for six months. Subsequently, I left all my belongings in the Bay area. Moving Star very satisfactorily managed to store my goods for me. Avner Yonai was very helpful, easy to communicate with and accommodating when I needed to access my unit after the regular business hours. I highly recommend Moving Star. Moving Star has a professional staff with friendly attitude, I appreciate their kind help and guidance through the moving process and without a doubt i will use their services again! read more

BEWARE "Moving Star" has honest reviews removed! You are seeing scrubbed and likely illegitimate reviews. Avner misrepresented himself to me and my family as reliable and responsive. Once the agreement was signed, he became aloof but whats more is that once they had all our furnishings in storage, he went dark. He refused to release our goods until and unless we paid more money. He is a professional in scamming. Save yourself the stress and hire movers whose reviews don't appear suspiciously perfect! read more

I used movingstar last year Oct moving from Hong Kong back to Bay area, thinking it's gonna be complicated and alot to worry about. Surprisingly it was smoothest experience i ever expected. They walked me through step by step, giving me updates on my shipment without having me to ask them. Packing was professional and neat! I moved back a electronic piano, two bass guitar and one guitar! Everything was safe n nicely handled! They deliver fast and on time! Recommended my dad to use them and his shipment arrived today and it was just as amazing as last time! Highly recommended! read more

We moved from San Francisco to New York City in December, on a short timeline and over Thanksgiving. As you can imagine (or know), packing and moving home can be a stressful time. Actually, even finding a selecting a mover you feel confident in is stressful enough! Avner and team were great. Communication around costs, timing, process and logistics on both ends, along with insurance options, was all clear and all our questions were answered quickly and clearly. The actual packing, move and delivery was on time and completely stress free. Are Moving Star the cheapest mover you can find? No. Are they the most expensive white glove packer and mover? Definitely not. Could they have been better in any way? Honestly, I don't think so. I'll definitely use them again. read more

I'm a month late on this review but this company was great! We booked a few days before we needed them and they were so accommodating. The movers were on time and moved quickly. We were very pleased with the service we received. Thank you so much read more

after very bad experience with one other mover that was attempting scamming us we got 5 STAR service and all of our goods arrived as promised. packing was done right and lot of help in arranging and temporary storing of our shipping goods. Just good words, and if ever need any service this are the guys. read more

I was referred to Moving Star by Rainier Overseas Movers, whom I have used in the past and had a great experience. I needed an estimate for a complicated move--first to storage, then long distance (likely cross-country, but potentially international). Avner and his colleagues were great. Once I made contact, he quickly set up an appointment to do an in-home survey the next day. While the initial survey was a bit heavier than I expected based on another recent move and competing quotes, Avner (with support from Rainier, another superb company) worked with me to reach an agreement, answering questions and helping to work out the details. They also did their very best to accommodate my schedule and to get their crew out to my home the day before a holiday. When moving day arrived, they were on time, fast, careful, and courteous--everything you want in a moving crew. I have done many (five and counting) cross country or international moves, and I have been burned before by companies that make false promises to get your business and then fail to deliver. Moving Star was the exact opposite: fair, reliable, and genuinely helpful. It was a great experience from beginning to end, and I would not hesitate to use Moving Star again. read more

I sent a community member to Moving Star for a relatively small move. they treated it as if it was a major move. the customer service was wonderful, and everything was done in a timely and professional manner. Very satisfied. read more

I used Moving Star 6 years ago. Back then Avner, Gil and their crew did an awesome job moving us from the East Bay to the Tri-Valley area. He also shipped a container to the Philippines filled with our furniture and personal belongings. Everything arrived safely and in a timely manner. Most recently we used Moving Star again to move from the Tri-Valley area to the Peninsula. Avner's crew worked efficiently and took great care in packing up all of our belongings. From Point A to Point B, his crew worked hard to help make our move successful. Avner provided fair pricing and his estimates were always guaranteed. Gil always called to follow-up on how our moves went and I have had nothing but good things to say about their service. I have referred them to other Family and Friends and will continue to do so. Kudos to Avner, Gil, Roberto, John, and the rest of the crew! read more

I moved with MovingStar in May of 2014 and also back in 2005. Avner came out for a free in house estimate and I received a very professional estimate in couple of days. I used full service moving between Campbell, CA and Rocklin, CA, they packed everything on the previous day. The guys were very nice and WOW ! they can pack! Delivery happened on the next day, they were there on time, they unloaded everything, not a nick on the furnitures (they wrapped it) nor on the walls an these were 2 story homes. Very impressive. They assembled the furniture, put the boxes into the right rooms. I unpacked all my china and crystals and I did not have one broken piece and not even a chip. I highly recommend the company to everybody for short or long distance move, I did both with them. I recommending MovingStar and their team to everybody in my circles. ILP read more

I bought a desk from Bernhardt Furniture through my interior designer. I had to have a receiving company take responsibility for receiving the furniture. Because it was only a desk, I didn't need it delivered. We were able to get that in our pickup ourselves. I called MovingStar and they allowed us to have it received for free. I was amazed at this service. So, when we remodeled our house this year, we needed a receiving company as well as movers to deliver our new furniture. After such a great experience with MovingStar the year before, I went back to them. Avner was awesome in coordinating and getting my new furniture to me as soon as it was delivered. No scratches, dents or complaints! I would use this company again without hesitation. read more

Rainier Overseas Movers had Moving Star take care of my pickup, furniture wrapping and load into a shipping container for international transport. From the first contact Avner & Gil have been professional, communicative, attentive to detail, and tirelessly answered all my questions. Their moving guys were outstanding - hard-working, cheerful, packed my antique furniture with great care, and loaded all the furniture and boxes carefully into the container, strapped and braced for shipping. They handled my stuff like it was their own. Highly recommend this professional company! read more

You are in great hands with this company! Avner and his crew are top of the line. They take care of all the details. They moved us overseas, which is a potentially nerve wracking experience, they made it easy. The crew that packed our things were real artists. They used every inch of space in the container and nothing was damaged. Watching them work is an experience, they really know what they are doing. You can be sure that when they move you, it will be done right. :0) read more

Great service, they arrived a little early and did a very careful job packing. Very polite and frequently asked questions about how I wanted specific items handled. Price was better than I expected and lower than their original estimate. I highly recommend their service. Please note: they don't say they are cash-only but basically they really are a cash-only business. read more

Great movers! Very friendly and so helpful. They helped me move furniture and were so careful, knowledgeable, and efficient. Two thumbs up! :) read more

This is a first class operation that can be trusted to provide an honest, careful and competent moving experience. Avner and Gil can provide help with moving anywhere in the U.S. and have great expertise and experience in moving individuals and families as international movers. They are very knowledgeable about bulky and delicate valuable items. MovingStar cares and comes through . The process of moving is always a difficult activity but Moving Star will lower your anxiety . They also can provide long term or short term storage at very competitive rates in their Fremont headquarters . read more

Very nice, good, strong movers and crew. Needed a small furniture move and they were so courteous and helpful. One guy can lift a heavy 6-person wood table over his head and down a 30 foot walkway and lift into truck by himself without needing assistance. Good sense of balance, and Strong!! Will use them for future moves for sure. read more

This is the second time I am using Moving Star ! First time I used them to bring my container from Israel to SF and second time was just Saturday to move my things to a new apartment within the city. They were on time, very patient, and organized. Worked fast but efficiently. I highly recommend them and will definitely use them again in the future!!! read more

I don't know where to start. Our initial engagement started with a one day delay because the truck was not available. We decided for the storage option because we were in transition. The movers they hire do not read the instructions on the boxes and try to get everything out of the truck without considering if its "Fragile" or not. As a result, I had a lot of Riedel and European glasses broke as well as designer furniture damaged. When contacting them to find a solution, they recommended I use my own insurance. I cannot recommend MOVING STAR read more

Avner and Gil are terrific. They come on time, they get the job done, their staff is courteous, reliable and responsible. From start to finish the job was done competently and efficiently. I'm so glad to have found them, and recommend them with no reservations! read more

Fast, courteous and professional. I paid the not-to-exceed price and felt like I got a good price. The furniture was disassembled and reassembled perfectly. The team was zippy and had a great attitude even though it was a long, long day. Avner provided the quote and was responsive and easy to work with. I would definitely use them again. read more

We have used Moving Star many times for our moves around the Bay Area and they have always been great. The movers have been courteous, very hard working and always careful to put the furniture just where we wanted it. And we have never had anything broken or damaged. Recently I needed a big Armoire and a rowing machine moved out of one of our upstairs bedroom--we're in a townhome so moving these items down three flights of winding stairs was involved. I contacted Avner to see if they could send someone over to help at a reasonable price and they sent a group over after finishing another move in the area. We really appreciated their help. read more

Moving Star moved me to Israel and 3 years later moved me back. Avner Yonai and his crew are first rate -- careful, professional and friendly. I highly recommend them whether you move to the next town or halfway around the world. read more

Moving star was the company we chose to work with when we moved to Israel. They work with a big shipping company called Sonigo. Their service is terrible. Their stuff stole my jewelry, and other precious items that run in our family for years. Many items were broken due to careless packing, and most of the boxes were not labeled so we had to guess what's inside each box... I would recommend to stay away from this company. read more

worked with Avner and his team more than 3 times . They are Super stars with capital S.... There are so many dubious people in that line of business so finding and working with those guys (Avner and Gil) is nothing but GR8 experiance read more
