Specialist moves and routes

Change the selection criteria when the job changes.

A good office, art, international or downsizing shortlist should not use the same evidence as a straightforward local flat move.

How the research works

Evidence is useful only when its limits remain visible.

We separate company claims, independent review platforms, local service evidence and editorial judgement. Google, Trustpilot, RemovalReviews and other sources are never blended into a made-up rating.

  • Changing review figures carry a check date.
  • Local evidence is assessed separately from company-wide feedback.
  • Press coverage, accreditations and public records are clearly labelled.
  • Every shortlist explains what still needs checking in the quote.
