Jeremy was very helpful and made the entire process super easy. Placed an order online, received a call the following day to confirm my order and picked up before closing time. Warehouse made it very easy to load my order. I was a bit sad that black caps weren't available then again super thankful I even had options. Showroom was clean, neat and great presentation. Overall, definitely recommend buying your bottles from General Bottle Supply. read more

First company ever encountered where they won't pull your order until you are there to pick it up. Very inconvenient to wait 1 hour for a 20 case will call order. And if you wish for your order to be pre-pulled they will charge you a $50.00 fee. Outrageous procedure and it makes no sense. We will be looking for another vendor for sure. read more

Highly recommended great product great service. I work with Albert for everybody is nice over there. no great selection!

Been ordering from them for years! I haven't used the local pick up since covid but they have everything I need and have always gotten things to me in a timely matter! It may not be China prices but super convenient and great value for the convenience. read more

This place is awesome . They have an amazing showroom where you can see everything they got , but the best part is their sales team, This guys really know their stuff, what it is and what's for. Super pleasant and a no rush atmosphere . You can take as long as you need to make you choice. Best of all is if by any chance you have an issue, bring it back and they will take care of it with a smile . Justin was my last guy there and he was perfect, but anyone there is awesome. Highly recommend read more

I Have a small business here in Los Angeles. and have been a customer at GBS for 8 years now. I checked to see if I could pick up today (Sat.) I cannot, no biggie. I will get Monday. Posting after seeing a post where someone 1 starred and then says they ordered samples to go cross country... and noticed poster is in Venice, CA. GBS is in Boyle Heights, (LA, CA) a mere 20 miles away. so IDK what posters definition of "Across Country" is.... maybe Cross county, but I digress. I only pick up Locally, not online, but the prices are better than online, and the customer service is really great. and I worked in CSR for over a decade. so, game recognize game. Im sure the online is a pleasant experience, but I saw this profie at 3.5 stars looking up their hours, and really thought that is a shame. I can't recommend them highly enough. (in fact I have to more than one person with a small business.) best price on 2oz, straight sided flint jars with CRC. nothing for me to gain by writing this, but I support good local businesses. read more

General Bottle Supply - bottles and caps from GBS - Wholesale Stores Near Me - Los Angeles, California

They thrive because they have best selection in LA area and they do smaller volumes. So I am super grateful for that. But to management, the customer experience is dismal. I hate buying from you guys because you are so difficult to deal with. Your staff is really not customer service oriented at all. Everytime I buy from you I am treated as if you were doing me a favor. In the times of covid19 I got a shipment and I got stiffed a case of jars. I was supposed to receive 24. And I only got 23... With that said, the shipping was super fast. Really, a mixed bag.... read more

I have worked shipping for decades and can tell you that they are gauging in every aspect of the way regarding shipping- large companies with accounts do not have shipping rates this expensive. They are charging 500% of cost to ship. I have will called with this company for years and sad to say after this I would for sure never shop with them again- They truly are not a company for the customer. Greed Greed and more greed- shame on the owner. read more

I had been meaning to go to this store for years after passing the sign on the five hundreds of times. I finally stopped in this week and was not expecting to find a nice clean office with lots of hard working people in there. In particular, salesperson Alex Flowers was amazing. He was kind, got me exactly what I wanted, explain the process because I'd never been there before, and I will be going back. The prices are better than anything on Amazon. Thank you, Alex ! read more

First of all, if you notice there are a suspicious number of 5-star reviews for General Bottle from December of 2014, and then mostly 1- to 3-star reviews from all other time periods, that's because (in line with their general deceptive business practices) General Bottle ran a promo in November and December of 2014 where if you wrote a 5-star review, you got a $25 credit. I have uploaded a picture of their flyer from that time period as proof, and you can actually check the date and GPS data embedded in that photo to see that indeed it was taken at General Bottle's headquarters in December of 2014. Without the fake 5-star reviews, this is a 2-star business at best. Caveat emptor. Secondly, I have been a customer of General Bottle for a number of years and my real experience there has been terrible: the reps lie to my face about pricing, there have been too many errors with orders, they are out of supply regularly. The salespeople are unprofessional. I have no axe to grind, this is just me being honest. Like some other commentators have said, I have been a good customer here over the years and have received nothing but deception and bad service most of the time in return. I have not seen the service improve. Just know that there are other options out there. General bottle might be ok if you're buying in tiny quantities (if you can put up with the aforementioned problems), but if you're buying any type of commercial quantities, do your research online. There are much better options in Southern California. read more

GREAT jar and bottle selection, but SUPER bummed out about the amount of styrofoam they use. So very unnecessary given the alternatives out there available. I'm not a crazy advocate for our planet, by any means, I am the average consumer and even I know better. As good as the prices are, and as great as the selection is, it's just not sustainable to support such reckless packaging. Not only does it take over 500 years to break down completely, it broke down just enough in transit to cover all over my boxes of jars, and the static is making it difficult to get them off, causing little pieces of styrofoam to dance all over our patio and be swept away by the wind. I don't want to hurt the business with less than a 3 star review, and will gladly be a returning customer if they get on board with giving a crap about our planet! read more

Great sales person: Alex. Deal with anyone else and no one cares about you. They are always out of products, so don't count on them being very reliable. Love Alex's service, but I can't stand the lack of customer service from everyone else. Will use them until I outgrow them, which is already about time. Definitely looking for another provider. read more

General Bottle Supply - Wholesale Stores Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Only giving them 3 stars for past performance. Since pandemic they are awful. Can't do will call. If you're not ordering enough they won't take tour order on phone, only website. FYI, when technology is used to add more steps. It's not working! Girl who first answers phone puts me on hold for almost 5 minutes without any warning. Then some guy gets on phone line, no help. They couldn't find my account after dealing with them for 9 years. read more

Found this place on Yelp and decided I needed to check it out. SO GLAD I did! Walking in is a little overwhelming, but there are plenty of employees to ask for assistance. They have a big variety of bottles and jars made of glass and plastic and their pricing is UNBEATABLE. After you place an order, you have to wait outside for the warehouse guys to pull your order. There's some waiting with other customers ahead of the queue so make sure you have the time to spare. read more

I would love to give them more stars, as I have absolutely loved them in the past. The reason for the low rating is that they still haven't re-opened their will call for pick up which means you have to pay for shipping. The other reason is when they ship they use styrofoam packing peanuts.....who does that anymore??? I mean come on! If they fix those two things, I'd give them five stars for sure. Please fix? read more

Danielle N. If there prices are cheaper and you are paying for shipping from their competitors, then why don't you just have General Bottle Supply ship it to you? At least the have the option to ship or pick up. Other companies have $1000 minimums to pick up. Yes waiting for multiple items takes a long time but they are very helpful and accommodating. Maybe instead of complaining about the wait ask them to get you a shipping quote read more

I'm always pleased when I come here. Alex and all the staff are always friendly even with the high volume of customers and calls. Now it's the coronavirus pandemic and SugarCaneJunkie needs bottles more than ever. Once i got Alex on the phone he got me squared away in no time. He stared my order wouldn't even ship for a week due to high volume however I made my order Tuesday, my card was charged Wednesday and big delivery truck darkened my driveway today (Thursday), I'm ecstatic! No money lost or orders delayed. Thank you! read more

Love that this supplier treats their small customers so great. When I was looking for my packaging there were competitors who required appointments and treated you poorly for not knowing the neck size if a bottle... and pricing wise had huge minimums... Genera lBottle treats you with respect and they are even helpful when they don't have what you need. The only improvement I can suggest is to allow orders to be paid for and pulled by phone to shorten wait times. read more

General Bottle Supply - Their showroom! - Wholesale Stores Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Yo, this is my new favorite spot for jars, bottles and tops that I need for my small business! They treat walk-ins great and they had everything that I need for a wholesale price, which in turn, saved me a lot of money. Very knowledgable in their products. Only thing, the minimum is $50. So if you go, keep in mind to spend $50 and you will be all good. It takes a little while for them to gather up your items, I sat in my car and waited for my name to be called! Will definitely be going back for my next order! For holidays, it's best to call before you go. If not, you will drive all of those miles for nothing, and who wants that, shoot not me! Great experience overall! Thanks GBS! I'll be back! read more

December 1, 2017: It makes sense for the company to shamelessly attempt to discredit the customer. I'm not invested in any way- to be dishonest about my experience, my suggestion to check hours stands because I was unpleasantly surprised more than once. Wow! ANOTHER negative experience at General Bottle Supply. I decided to give the business a second chance. I came in, placed my order with a sales rep, and after about 20 minutes, a different person approached me. In front of other customers, and his staff, he showed me a print out of my Yelp review for the company, and instead of addressing my concerns- he said I could not complete my purchase unless I took my review down. I wrote an honest review, and customers should be aware- isn't that what Yelp is for??? Terrible business practice and even worse customer service! Previous review: Variety is ok, but with every order, I always get faulty bottles, broken droppers, etc. Store hours are inconsistent too. Business days before holidays- they close at 11. and on regular days although their hours are 8-4:30, they close their doors at 4, or rush you if you come in around 4. If you shop here, call before you go in case of unexpected store hour changes. Been disappointed several times. read more

I can't understand why the sales people are so rude here. I've been coming in to get supplies for over 4 years and I walk out their door feeling sad every time. I thought it was just me because I can be sensitive but my very nice friend who gets along with everyone says the same thing about them. Like, it almost seems as if they're going out of their way to be aloof and unfriendly. At least the loading dock crew are friendly and fast. They are very convenient so I'll keep returning, I just wish one of these times they would act like I wasn't a total burden to them. read more

They refuse to do will call / pick up because of the pandemic and their shipping is outrageous. I live 10 mins away- this is absurd and bad business. Will not be buying from them even when they open back up. read more

General Bottle Supply - Can't miss 'em, right next to the 5 on Daly! - Wholesale Stores Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Always out of stock, sometimes for months... They discontinue items but keep them on the shelves and on the website. Many items displayed are special order only or they just don't have them, but still keep them on display. If you order more than 5 different things it takes sooo long for to fill it. They also use way too many plastic bags to fill orders. The prices are slightly lower than some suppliers but the wait and frustration of their supply issues is not worth the minimal savings. I will order from other suppliers, pay the shipping and save the headache of dealing with General Bottle Supply Update: Wow!!!! I wish I could remove the 1 star for zero. Unfortunately, I had a $6 credit on my account, so I went to use it up and never return. After I made my order they actually printed out my yelp review and brought over to me and said they needed to talk to me about it. Then proceeded to tell me I need to plan better. !!!!! Are you kidding me? Attacking the customer? Any chance you had of redeeming yourself is down the toilet. Then when we asked to cancel my order and just get a refund for my remaining credit. They said, the person that does that wasn't there and couldn't do it until Monday. Total BS. No need to ever purchase anything here. There are plenty of companies that have the same products that are actually available and without the hassle.

Coming to pick up 64oz beer growlers. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Picking up in larger or smaller quantity is easy and quick. The products purchased have always been good quality. There is a large selection of different bottles from beer bottles, plastic and glass bottles. I have always left happy. Close off the freeway which makes picking up quicker and easier. read more

I have been a customer for 16 years, and Albert is my rep. I have had an amazing customer service experience each and every time I have called or stopped by.

This is an article in regards to customer service although, there are plenty other issues including pricing and the diversity in inventory... I've been a customer here, off and on for around 4 years. As all small businesses do, we have our ups and downs and sometimes have to source cheaper outlets or new vendors. I've given away at least $100,000 total from the past years worth of business to General Bottle and I walk in there today to only be greeted by a person whom, I thought was decent guy but tells me, "Since you haven't been here for awhile (few months) you have to pay a 50 dollar minimum". Now, there's a few problems I have with this... One, this specific person wasn't my original rep, who for sure would have waived it or helped out in some way instead of this particular greeting and two, I wanted to test out their products with some samples (maybe 10 dollars worth) to see if I would use them for bigger business once again. Now, considering you can't even test out the products without paying 50 dollars, I don't want anything to do with them because it shows they are simply money hungry and not attune to who their clients actually are. I would say, majority being small businesses or startups who can't afford to pay 50 dollars for strictly sampling. AND not to mention, and once again, their loyalty to clients whom have given them 10's of thousands of dollars in the past, don't even get a pass or a little relief when in need... Ridiculous. If you're looking for some appreciation and loyalty for your business down the line, definitely don't use General bottle. If you are looking for diversity, don't use General Bottle and lastly, if you don't have $50 to spend on just some samples to try and test products, definitely don't use General Bottle. Cheers (: read more
