Which removals companies in Guildford do AI assistants actually recommend?

We put the 14 questions a person in Guildford asks before choosing removals companie — cost, specialism, who to use, how to check them — to Claude and ChatGPT, 5 times each, 140 answers in all, and recorded every firm the answers named. 30 firms in Guildford were checked against those answers. 10 of them were named at least once. The rest were not recommended in a single answer.

Firms are ranked by the number of answers that named them, then by how many different questions. The assistants do not give identical answers twice, so a difference of one or two mentions is noise; being named on questions a rival is absent from is not.

The questions we asked

  1. How much does a house removal in Guildford usually cost?
  2. What's a fair price per hour for a man and van near Guildford?
  3. I'm moving from a two-bed flat in Guildford to a house near Godalming, what size van or crew would I need?
  4. Which independent removal firm near Guildford has the best reviews for careful handling of furniture?
  5. Is it cheaper to hire a local removals company near Guildford or rent a van and do it myself?
  6. Which company should I use for a small flat move within Guildford town centre?
  7. We're relocating from Woking to Guildford next month, should we book weeks in advance or can we get a last-minute slot?
  8. Are there any accredited or BAR-registered independent removal firms operating around Guildford?
  9. What's the difference between a local independent removals firm near Farnham and one of the big national chains?
  10. How much extra do removal companies near Guildford charge for stairs or a lack of parking?
  11. I need to move a piano from a house near Guildford to a flat in Aldershot, who handles specialist items like that?
  12. How can I check if a removals firm near Guildford is genuinely insured before I book them?
  13. Should I hire a full-service removal company or just book a van with a driver for a local move?
  14. Which is better for a student move out of Guildford at the end of term, a man and van or a full removal crew?

How this was measured

  • Date: 25 September 2026. This is one day, not a trend; the index is re-measured monthly.
  • Sample: 14 questions × 2 assistants × 5 runs = 140 answers. 30 firms checked.
  • Assistants used: Claude (Anthropic’s Sonnet model, through its API, with web search); ChatGPT (OpenAI’s gpt-4o-mini model, through its API, with web search — not the model inside the ChatGPT app). Answers from these programming interfaces can differ from what the consumer apps show.
  • Counting: a firm is counted when its name appears in an answer. Names are picked out of the answer text automatically, then matched to the firm list.
  • Limits: the assistants vary between runs, so small gaps are noise. Firms that were not named may still be recommended by an assistant or a question we did not ask. National chains are left off the list.

Is your firm on this list?

Every firm above has a private report: which answers named it, which rivals were named instead, whether its website can be read by the assistants, and the three things that would change the result. We work with one removals companie in Guildford, and this index is re-measured every month, so the change is visible here.
