| 5/5 | I previously used Bulldog Movers for my personal move so when it was time for our Firm to move to office space, I knew I had to call Bulldog again. They handled every item with care, thoughtfully wrapped our printers and artwork, and had our office packed up in about 2 hours. We did not have a single damaged or missing item. | Sarah White | |
| 5/5 | This is our 2nd move with Bulldog and I will always call them first! Josh did a great job setting up the move, including a rescheduled winter weather delay. | Wendy Wilkerson | |
| 5/5 | They scheduled quickly, showed up on time, and got to work immediately. The team was professional, worked diligently, and handled all items with care. Very smooth experience and will definitely use again. | Zachary Brooks | |
| 5/5 | Quoted 3 hours with the fourth hour being split into quarters and was charged 4 1/2 hours for them to move a STUDIO apartment. They had a man way too old to be moving anything and it was truly uncomfortable. | Mariam Hassan | |
| 5/5 | Over $5,000 in damage and some of the furniture wasn't fixable at all. My furniture had been unwrapped and the cardboard had just been there into the front of the trailer instead of wrapped on the furniture. I paid this company $3000 to unload and reload my property and the job they did was horrible. | Candie Barton | |

| 1/5 | Bulldog movers provided the WORST moving experience I have ever encountered. A $4,000 two bedroom move that took 12 hours. The supervisor drove off after 10 items were in the truck and left them at the door of the apartment building. | Lisa R. | BBB |
