Compare My Move publishes guides on removals, conveyancing, surveying, and related parts of the moving process.
Our guides are designed to help you make informed decisions about your move. They draw on what we learn from helping people compare and choose vetted professionals every day.
Researched and written by our in-house content team
Checked internally for clarity and accuracy
Reviewed by industry experts where needed
Each guide is written in-house by an author responsible for researching, writing, and keeping it up to date.

Our authors draw on our experience of supporting over one million UK home moves, alongside trusted UK sources, official guidance, and insight from the professionals we work with across the moving industry.
Before publication, content is checked internally for clarity, accuracy, and usefulness. We make sure explanations are straightforward, data is current, and the guide covers what a reader actually needs to know.
Not every guide is researched in exactly the same way. Cost guides often draw on pricing data from people who've used Compare My Move. Legal or technical guides may require review from a qualified professional. We match the level of research and review to the topic so the information is accurate, practical, and relevant.
We work with vetted professionals across removals, conveyancing, surveying, and mortgages. Because they support home movers every day, they help us understand things desk research alone would miss.
We use this insight to make our guides more practical and realistic. Partners do not approve, edit, or control what we publish.
Some guides cover specialist legal or technical detail. Where the topic warrants it, we ask qualified professionals to review key sections and check that the information is accurate and reflects current practice.
Our expert reviewers include regulated solicitors, licensed conveyancers, chartered surveyors, and experienced industry professionals. Where a guide has been reviewed, the reviewer is credited on the page. All final editorial decisions remain with Compare My Move.

We use reliable, up-to-date sources including UK government guidance, regulatory bodies, professional organisations, and industry data. Where helpful, we link directly to primary sources so readers can verify information themselves.
Costs change. Regulations change. Common practices evolve. We review guides regularly and update them when something material shifts: a tax threshold, a pricing trend, a regulatory change, or new data that affects our advice.
Each page shows when it was last updated.
Compare My Move connects users with vetted professionals and may receive a fee when users request to be matched with our partners.
Our editorial content is produced independently of our commercial relationships. Partners cannot pay to influence what we publish, how we rank services, or what we recommend.
