How we researched this page
How to use this page: We included companies where the public record supports relevant services, an identifiable operation and useful customer-feedback evidence. Use the shortlist to obtain comparable written quotations based on the same inventory, access information and service requirements.
We checked public service pages, location evidence, accreditation claims and source-specific review profiles. The selection is an editorial assessment for this exact move type and location, not a mathematical average or paid placement.
Evidence scope: we did not assume every company review concerned Greenwich, and we did not compare unpublished prices without equivalent written quotations.
