Would not hesitate to use General Movers again, I highly recommend them.  They did a fantastic job moving us across state.  They are hardworking, polite and excellent at their jobs.

Kyle and the team were terrific. They were extremely friendly and helpful. They moved our entire house in 5 hours which was impressive considering how much stuff we had. We did notice a small dent in our dining table after the move. I called Kyle and he came out himself to repair it. Will definitely use these guys again for our next move.

I am so excited to be able to now write a review after reading so many that helped me make my decision to pick General Movers. Sammy, Austin and Ian were an absolute godsend after having the worst experience possible with a previous company and being so nervous for this move.
From the beginning I knew this was going to be a good experience as they confirmed the day before, and reached out on moving day an hour prior, then the excellence continued as they arrive promptly at the agreed upon time. From expertly parking the truck to laying down runners to protect the carpet, they made a wonderful impression.
These 3 guys worked quickly, quietly and efficiently to move two storage units worth of boxes and furniture into a second story apartment. They had amazing positive attitudes despite the steep stairs and the rain! We will be moving again shortly and I am already looking forward to booking with these guys! Cannot recommend the company enough, it was just such a good experience.

Highly recommend! I was looking last minute for movers for some animal mounts that were pretty complicated to move. I had called five different moving companies and none of the other ones made me feel comfortable and none of the other ones sounded confident that they could get it done. When I called Kyle, it was confidence right off the bat and he definitely had the right guys for the job! Danny and Josh made it look easy and made sure everything was safe and secure! Very professional and will be using them again if we ever need to move anything in the future!

I can promise you that you have nothing to worry about with General Movers. Kyle was able to fit me in at the perfect time, just when I needed them. His guys were so far beyond professional and kind, treated all of my belongings with great care, and wasted no time. They got straight to work, on one of the most humid days we’ve had lately, and let me tell you, these guys are surgical with the way they handle your things. Everything of mine that they moved was in perfect condition after the job was finished. Nicely wrapped, not a single scratch on anything. They go to great lengths to take care of your possessions as if they are handling the Declaration of Independence.

I know it can be worrisome hiring a moving company; put your faith in General Movers and I guarantee you are well taken care of from start to finish. The process is a breeze.

Thank you General Movers!

Sammy and Carl were fantastic! They were extremely kind, professional, and hard working. They showed up on time and got right to work. Even with an elevator down in my building, they made great time and got the job done fast. They handled my furniture and personal items cautiously and made sure they were placed in the right spaces in my new home. No doubt I will be requesting these two to help with my next move!

I can’t recommend Carl and Sammie enough! They did an outstanding job with our move from start to finish. They arrived right on time, were incredibly professional, and treated every item with great care.They even went above and beyond by helping us with some extra packaging, which made the entire process so much less stressful.

Everything was moved carefully, and not a single item was damaged. Their attention to detail, hard work, and friendly attitudes truly set them apart. If you’re looking for reliable, honest, and professional movers, Carl and Sammie are the ones to call. I would absolutely use them again and highly recommend them to anyone needing moving services. Thank you both for making our move such a smooth and worry free experience.

They were fantastic. They came in, packed up our house and moved us. They were professional, efficient, personable and took the time to make sure webhad a pleasant moving experience. If you've ever had to move with 3 small children, you understand how stressful it can be. Kyle, Danny and their team made it the best experience we could have imagined

I highly recommend General Movers.  They called the day before to ask if I had anything of particular concern.  I did have a storage chest that needed extra care and he recognized it when he came in and wrapped it carefully.  All main furniture was wrapped well, clean runners were placed on the floors.  They placed things exactly where I asked them to at the new address.  The movers were friendly, on time, super fast, and somehow did not seem to mind the below freezing weather we had.  I would definitely use them again.

On the whole, General Movers was a positive experience. I moved from Maine to Florida and found the sales team very responsive, helpful, and provided great tips to ensure a good moving experience. They worked within my timeline, which was impressive given the short notice and a 2-week turnaround. The movers that arrived were friendly and skilled at their job. Again, everything was well-explained including the monies owed on the other end and the form of payment accepted. They exceed my expectations with the amount of help packing my items. I had already carefully padded and plastic wrapped most of my things but they used furniture covers and taped and wrapped over my work ensuring it to be protected and covered. I had been told ahead of time to make sure my boxes were packed to the top so they wouldn't be crushed in transit. I followed all the advice and everything arrived unscathed...nothing broken, nothing scratched, nothing crushed. On the receiving end, an 18-wheeler had to navigate my crowded neighborhood and he did an amazing job. They contracted out help to unpack. Everyone was friendly and capable. The only reason this isn't a 5-star review is because of a payment discrepancy which cost me and the movers unneeded stress and loss of time. I was told by Susan, on the sales team, that cash and money order was all that would be accepted. I verified that a bank money order was okay and was told 'yes'. On the receiving end, they refused to accept it. It took 2 hours on a Friday at 5:00 p.m. to run around town locating acceptable payment. Susan, who had previously been so helpful and answered my texts and calls at any time of the day, ghosted me. No matter what the sales team tells you - this company will only accept CASH and POSTAL MONEY ORDERS. What could have been a great moving experience ended up being extremely exhausting and stressful. What was great customer service at the beginning of the move, did not follow through at the end. Will I use them again? I'm not sure. They were 'mostly good' but I may hold out for excellent and stress-free next time.

Used General Movers to move stuff to my new house last weekend. The guys came out a little earlier than scheduled, which I appreciated since I requested they try to get there early. They did a good job packing things up carefully & efficiently. There were also sensibly about stacking things  (this is not a given-- not all movers are very careful about how they deposit items). The guys (Danny, Kaelon, & Andrew) were all very polite & nice people.  Danny called the night before to make sure he understood what would be needed for the move. Very organized. Kaelon (sp?) was especially considerate in moving things in.  I didn't ask him to sort boxes in a particular way, but he watched what I was doing & tried to copy my sorting method. I will definitely use them again.

I moved to the area from states away. With very few connections in Ann Arbor, I was in need of some helpful hands to unload my Pod. I am fortunate that - after contacting numerous local moving companies & not receiving a response - that Kyle/general movers answered my call. I cannot praise Kyle & his team enough! It was a smaller size Pod but heavy lifting was required - moving items up a flight of stairs and navigating a narrow space. The General Movers crew was prompt and professional, asking questions to ensure they were placing furniture/items where I needed them. In addition to their efficient work, they were friendly and made what can be a very stressful situation completely stress free. Thank you, thank you General Movers!

I've recently moved from a condo to a house, and the team from General Movers made my move easy and fast. They were super punctual, organized, always asked questions before moving anything or place boxes in the new place, and the price was on point. I would hire them again and also recommend them to friends. They did a great job.

Working with General Movers was a good experience. Their price was very fair. They were on time. The movers Danny and Miles worked very efficiently. They took a lot of care to make sure there was no damage while moving. They also put runners down so they did not track into my new apartment. I would recommend General Movers to my family and friends.

I spoke with Kyle over the phone. They were able to fit me in on Tuesday but I explained I needed a fridge moved earlier for the holidays. He was able to refer me to someone else who did it the same day.  Very professional and I appreciate he went out of his way to help me. We would recommend this company to everyone. They have experience moving large appliances, which is  not a given for all moving companies.

Kyle and his team are phenomenal. Always on time arrival. Responsive on texts. Excellent packing and moving skills. The entire moving team is polite and friendly. Nothing damaged. They moved our entire home plus we had some tricky pieces (piano, large shop tools). They made sure it was all taken care of and done right.

I was worried because I had bad experiences with other movers i contacted, my calls went unreturned etc. General movers got back to us immediately, took a list of what I wanted moved, it was only a small load, and said there was no problem. It could be picked-up, driven to Pittsburgh and delivered in one day. The cost was more than some quotes i got, but less than others. Brandon and Austin were prompt in arriving at the pick-up point, careful but fast in their packaging and packing, called us from the road to give us updates of their progress and were equally fast and efficient in their unpacking and positioning of the furniture. It was surprisingly stress free, unlike other experiences we have had with the moving industry.

They showed up a little late, but not horribly so. They were very friendly and pleasant, and worked quickly to get everything out onto the truck. They were very careful with all of my stuff, even carrying heavy things down my narrow staircase. I was moving my own things as well as my roommate's, and they made a stressful move very easy. I will definitely call them the next time I move anywhere!
