Compare My Move is a well-known UK service for finding removal companies. Like Bark, though, it's a lead-generation site rather than a bidding marketplace — and that shapes both your experience and your final price. Here's how it works and how it compares.
How Compare My Move works
You enter your move details and Compare My Move matches you with up to six removal companies, passing your contact details to each. Those companies pay Compare My Move for the introduction, then get in touch to arrange surveys and send quotes. You compare the quotes that come back and choose one.
It's a real service with vetted firms — but it means handing your details to several companies and dealing with the calls, emails, and home surveys that follow.
How We Got The Move is different
We Got The Move keeps everything on the platform. You post your job once, drivers bid directly, and you compare those bids without giving your number to anyone. Only the driver you accept gets your details.
Drivers pay no commission and no lead fees — just a single £9.99 fee paid by you on acceptance. With no introduction fee to recover, drivers quote their true rate, and you're not committing to a survey or a sales call to see a price.

Which should you use?
If you want a large full-service removal firm with a home survey, Compare My Move is built for that. If you want fast, competitive quotes from independent drivers — without sales calls and without handing your details to six companies — We Got The Move is the better fit, and usually cheaper for vans, man-and-van jobs, and single-item deliveries.
