General Moving Carriers made an otherwise hectic move very easy. 

We moved from a big house to three locations and still everything went very smoothly. 

I cannot say enough good things about everyone who represented General Moving.

They were honest, efficient, helpful, careful and considerate. 

Hats off to everyone.

Thanks for all your hard work!

I would recommend General Moving Carriers to anyone looking to make the onerous task of moving an easy one. 

If anyone could write a book called "The Joy of Moving" it would be General Moving- they make this task a very pleasant one!

Miguel was very organized, helpful and talked us through the entire process.

The guys worked very quickly to pack things up efficiently while Miguel did inventory.

I felt totally comfortable sitting-back and letting them handle everything.

They took great care in packing things and loading them onto the truck.

I look forward to getting the same exceptional service when our things reach California.

Thanks for making this moving day as stress and pain free as possible!!

After reading reviews for this business, I was skeptical that a moving company could receive so many positive reviews. I moved from West Orange, NJ to Manhattan right after Christmas. For me, moving has always been a cumbersome process but I used General Moving Carriers and felt compelled to write a review of my own. My foreman's name is Miguel and I couldn't have asked for better movers. Miguel was knowledgeable, his team was thorough and they did it all with a smile. They worked so quickly that they were done 30 minutes before the allocated time! They made sure to inspect every inch of my furniture beforehand and let me know if they saw any cracks or marks. Once they set everything up in my new apartment to my satisfaction, I could see no new damage at all. They thoroughly wrapped every piece of furniture and handled everything with care, even my heaviest furniture was moved carefully and without complaint. It was important for me as a single women to go with a moving company where I felt comfortable with the work crew. All of the guys were courteous and respectful at all times. I honestly could not be more pleased with the work Miguel and his team did for me and would not hesitate to recommend them or use them again. Believe the reviews, they are just that good!

From showing-up early to staying late, they made the move very easy for us.

First and foremost, I wanted to thank Jake, for all of his help in working with us to minimize the cost as much as possible.

I truly am very grateful for his desire to help us with this move.

The team though, is the one that should get all the credit because these guys are incredibly dedicated and professional!

They absolutely went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure our personal items were secured and safe from being damaged.

They worked so hard but still kept their friendly and pleasant attitude through-out the entire day.

There is no doubt that i will recommend this company, especially Rich, Ray, Jessie and Michael , to assist anyone i know with their move.

Thank you General Movers for a well done job!

Thank you, General!

The move went extremely well, as the team listened and followed through on the leader's (Miguel) orders,

Their courteusness was real, which is a definite positive for this business.

Usually, moves break down halfway in energy and team spirit, but this team exceeded what I've seen in the past.

Now I know why this company was so highly recommened.

Miguel was specially recommended by the person who referred them to us and I'm so glad I listened and picked him as my foreman.

Thank you so much, General!

Amazing service!

We had a lot of valuables, very old furniture in our family (some 200 years old) and the team took great care with each piece.

They set up the furniture and put items exactly where we wanted them so that all we needed to do was unpack our boxes.

We had a lot of books (a ton!) but they moved all of them without a single complaint.

The entire team was courteous, kind, funny, helpful and worked non-stop.

I didn't have to worry about a thing!

The team, led by Rick, was very strategic in how they worked to save time (and saved me money!).

General Moving Carriers has a very trustworthy team-

They even found a credit-card while loading the truck and returned it.

Thank you General for making a major event in life a stress free one.

Great!

Manuel and his crew did a fantastic job on a complicated move.

He, Jose and Augustin were hard workers, courteous, barely stopped for a break during a very long day.

The estimate was extremely close to the final cost and the difference was explained very carefully.

They were so helpful with the unpacking of my boxes, unrolling the rugs and set up the furniture at my new house.

It was great. Everything was at the right place and arrived in perfect condition.

I would definitely recommend this crew for any move.
