Showed up 7:58 AM for an 8 AM move. Gave us a number Monday. Didn't add a dollar at the end. Exactly what they said.

Sarah K. Raytown → Lee's Summit · 2BR · Apr 2026

Moved my mom's piano — 1967 upright, heavy as hell. Didn't nick a wall, didn't break a key. These guys know what they're doing.

Mike R. Independence → Blue Springs · 3BR · Mar 2026

Called 4 movers. North Star was the only one who locked a price over the phone. No "depends on the day" BS. Booked on the spot.

Jenna P. Overland Park → Olathe · 1BR · Feb 2026

Ray brought his crew himself. They packed grandma's china like it was their own. Every box labeled by room. No damage. Tipped $400 and felt underpaid.

Carlos T. KC Missouri → Liberty · 4BR · Jan 2026

Got laid off the day before my move. Called in a panic. They waived the cancellation fee. Rescheduled me free when I got back on my feet. Who does that?

Tasha M. Blue Springs → KC Missouri · Studio · Mar 2026

Full honesty: they were 30 min late, breakdown on I-70. Knocked an hour off the bill without me asking. That's how you keep customers for life.

THE LOCKED PRICE PROMISE

If we miss,
we eat it.

01

Locked in writing

The number on your quote is the number on your invoice. Guaranteed. If we show up and find 3 extra rooms of stuff, we still honor what you saw.

02

$10,000 damage protection

If we break it, we replace it or pay what it was worth. Every job. Every move. No deductible, no fight, no paperwork games.

03

On-time or 1 hour free

If we're more than 30 minutes past your ETA without a call, we knock an hour off your bill. Our crew is never later than we tell you.

04

Same crew, every time

No subs. No day-laborers. No surprises in your driveway. If the people who show up aren't on the polaroid wall upstairs, call me — Ray.

FAQ

Real questions from real people.

How much does a local KC move cost?

A 2-bedroom local move averages $900–$1,400 with North Star. Studios start at $299. The only way to know exactly is to build your quote above — every dollar is itemized, no "call for pricing."

Do you pack my stuff for me?

Yes. Choose Pack + Move mode and our crew handles every box. We bring the boxes, the packing tape, the blankets, the bubble wrap — no charge for supplies. If you prefer to pack yourself, choose Just Move and we haul.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. USDOT 3481222. MC 894221. Licensed by the Missouri Department of Transportation since 2008. Every move is covered by our in-writing $10,000 damage guarantee — plus full commercial cargo insurance.

How far in advance should I book?

For weekends and end-of-month, 2–3 weeks. Mid-week moves can usually be booked with 3–7 days notice. We always save a few slots for last-minute emergencies — call (816) 555-0123 and ask.

What about piano / pool table / hot tub?

We move them. Uprights $180, grand pianos $350, pool tables $200, gun safes $120, hot tubs $400. Add them to your quote above — locked price includes the extra crew time and special equipment (dollies, straps, padding).

What does the quote include?

Everything. Truck, fuel, crew, dollies, blankets, shrink wrap, tape, bubble wrap, stairs, long carries, weekend surcharges — all included. If it's not on the invoice we quoted, we're not charging you.

Do you move out of state?

Yes — anywhere in the contiguous 48. Long-distance quotes are built the same way as local: everything itemized, locked in writing before we load. Call for an out-of-state quote, or build one above and we'll call back in 15 min.

Can I reschedule if plans change?

Yes, free up to 48 hours before your move. Inside 48 hours, we ask for a $99 reschedule fee only if we can't refill the slot. Life happens — we'll work with you.
